Show count down to remaining places per booking

Hello team, I want to add a listing that allows multiple places in the same time period. Is there a way to show remaining places upon booking?

Once after 4 places are booked, the last requestor is still possible to pick 2-5 places upon booking, and he/she won’t know that there is only 1 place left.

Hi,

The first one is already implemented and is waiting for the code review, it’ll most likely be added to the next version. Other 2 are still on the roadmap, unfortunately I can’t provide an ETA but if you set the license key in settings, updates will be delivered as soon as they’re ready (to the Dashboard/Updates section).

Hello team.

I believe the update to the first topic is not released yet? Will this be included in the HivePress core or the Booking extension update?

Looking forward to the updates for the other two topics as well. Thank you always for your support!

Yes, thanks for your patience - it’s not available yet but it’ll be included in the next Bookings update (time slots support for the availability search).
