## Description

**SlashBooking** turns any WordPress page into a self-service appointment funnel.
A visitor picks a service, sees the available slots in real time, and books in under
a minute. You receive an email alert and confirm or decline in one click — no need
to log in to WordPress, no third-party SaaS, no recurring fees.

It is a self-hosted scheduling tool: your data stays in your WordPress database.

#### Main features

 * **Public booking form via shortcode** — A single `[slashbooking]` in any page.
   Multiple services, date picker, real-time slots, customer form, fully responsive.
 * **One-click email confirmation** — Every request arrives with two buttons, _Confirm_
   and _Decline_. No WordPress login required. The action links are signed with 
   HMAC-SHA256 and cannot be forged.
 * **Smart buffers around appointments** — Configure padding (travel, prep) between
   appointments. Applied automatically.
 * **Multi-slot opening hours** — Monday 9–12 + 14–18, Tuesday morning only, Wednesday
   off… Each day and each service is configured independently.
 * **Transactional emails with .ics** — Confirmation, decline and acknowledgement
   emails, each with an automatic `.ics` attachment so the customer adds the appointment
   to their calendar in one click.
 * **Built-in GDPR compliance** — Explicit consent before submission, WP_Privacy
   exporters/erasers, configurable retention, automatic anonymisation.
 * **Built-in anti-spam** — Honeypot and per-IP rate limiting, with no third-party
   service and no external request.

#### Who it is for

 * Freelancers and small businesses who want a self-hosted scheduling page
 * Agencies packaging a website with a booking funnel
 * Any business where «book a slot» opens the customer journey

### External services

This plugin is fully self-contained. It makes no calls to any external or third-
party service and sends no data off your site — every request is handled on your
own WordPress installation.

### Source code and build

The full, human-readable source code is public and maintained at:

https://github.com/ArchSeraphin/slashbooking-lite

The PHP runs unmodified from `src/`. The admin interface bundle
 (`assets/dist/index.
jsx.js` and `.css`) is compiled from the React/SCSS sources in `src/Admin/react-
app/src/`, which ship inside the plugin ZIP as well.

To regenerate the compiled admin assets:

    ```
    npm install
    npm run build   (uses @wordpress/scripts — webpack/Babel; outputs to assets/dist/)
    ```

The Composer autoloader in `vendor/` is generated with `composer install --no-dev`.

## Installation

 1. Upload the ZIP via **Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin** (or unzip it into `wp-content/
    plugins/`).
 2. Activate **SlashBooking** in the plugins list.
 3. Configure it from the **SlashBooking** admin menu:
 4.  * **Services** — appointment duration, before/after buffers, days and opening 
       hours, display colour
     * **Settings** — booking form colours, consent message, GDPR retention, notification
       email
 5. Paste `[slashbooking]` into any public page to display the booking form.

## FAQ

### How do emails get sent?

By default via `wp_mail()`. If you have an SMTP plugin installed (WP Mail SMTP, 
FluentSMTP, etc.), SlashBooking uses it automatically — no extra configuration.

### Is a customer account required to book?

No. Visitors book without creating an account. You collect only the fields you need(
name, email, phone, etc.).

### Is it GDPR compliant?

Yes. The form requires explicit consent, the plugin registers WordPress privacy 
data exporters and erasers, supports a configurable retention period, and anonymises
old bookings automatically.

### Does it work with page caching plugins?

Yes. The page that contains the widget is automatically excluded from page caching
so the form keeps working.

### Does it survive a WordPress update?

Yes. Database schemas are versioned and migrated automatically, and options are 
preserved.

## Changelog

#### 1.0.5

 * **Internationalization.** The plugin’s source strings are now in English (`en_US`)—
   the standard base locale for WordPress.org — and a complete **French (`fr_FR`)**
   translation ships with the plugin, covering the admin, the transactional emails,
   the public booking form and the settings app. The plugin can now be translated
   into any language via translate.wordpress.org.
 * Updated the bundled plugin logo to the current SlashBooking calendar mark.

#### 1.0.4

 * Removed the optional Cloudflare Turnstile integration from the free edition. 
   The plugin now makes **no external requests** and connects to **no third-party
   service** — it is fully self-contained. The built-in honeypot and per-IP rate
   limiting continue to protect the booking form.

#### 1.0.3

 * Hardened the code against the full WordPress.org Plugin Check ruleset: documented
   the trusted, prepared database queries in the data-access layer; annotated internal
   exception messages (caught/converted, never displayed); renamed the internal 
   action hooks to an underscore prefix (`slashbooking_booking_*`); prefixed the
   loader variable in the main file; and documented the standard cache constant/
   hook and the opt-in Cloudflare Turnstile widget script (the one permitted external
   service).

#### 1.0.2

 * Renamed all plugin option names, the custom cron schedule and the rate-limit 
   transient keys from the short `sb_` prefix to the unique `slashbooking_` prefix,
   to prevent collisions with other plugins or themes.
 * Replaced the example logo-URL placeholder in the email settings (it was an `https://…/
   logo.png` string that a code scan could mistake for a remotely loaded file) with
   a plain text hint. The plugin never loaded that URL; it was only placeholder 
   text inside a URL input the admin fills in.

#### 1.0.1

 * Public booking widget and dashboard widget styles are now enqueued (no inline`
   <style>`).
 * The `.ics` calendar attachment is written to a hardened uploads subfolder instead
   of the system temp directory, and removed right after sending.
 * Shortcode output uses `esc_url()` for the REST URL attribute.
 * Admin menu moved to a lower position so it no longer sits among core items.
 * Removed the redundant `load_plugin_textdomain()` call (translations load automatically
   on WordPress.org).
 * Documented the public source repository and admin-bundle build steps; the React/
   SCSS sources now ship in the plugin.

#### 1.0.0

First public release: shortcode booking form with real-time availability, one-click
signed email confirmation (Confirm/Decline), `.ics` attachments, per-service opening
hours and buffers, GDPR exporters/erasers and retention, honeypot + rate limiting,
and optional Cloudflare Turnstile.
