BookPilot AI lets you accept and manage appointments directly from your WordPress site. Build a fully branded booking experience — no third-party redirect required.
Key features:
<ul>
<li>Services & staff — Create unlimited services with custom pricing, duration, and capacity. Assign staff members with individual schedules and time-off.</li>
<li>Three booking views — Embed the booking widget in Grid, List, or Calendar layout via the included Elementor widget.</li>

Choose action-based triggers (approved, pending, rejected, cancelled, details changed, rescheduled) or scheduled reminders/follow-ups (X minutes before/after the appointment), filter by service and appointment status, send to multiple recipients (client, staff, admins, custom address), and write the message with a full rich text editor and dynamic placeholders.</li>
<li>Staff widget — Show your team in a Grid or List with five layout presets (Card, Overlay, Minimal, Classic, Compact), columns, ordering, pagination, AJAX category filter chips, and a built-in “Book Now” popup that opens the booking flow pre-filtered to that staff member’s services.</li>
<li>Works in any page builder — Use the <code>[bpai_staff]</code> shortcode in Gutenberg, WPBakery, Divi, Beaver Builder, or the Classic editor — not just Elementor.</li>

<li>Elementor widgets — Style every aspect of the booking and staff widgets (colours, typography, card layout, button, calendar) with Elementor’s visual controls. No coding required.</li>

<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin optionally connects to the following third-party services:
<h4>Stripe (optional)</h4>
If you enable Stripe payments in Settings → Payments, the plugin loads the Stripe.js library from <code>https://js.stripe.com/v3/</code> on any page that contains the booking form. This is required by Stripe for PCI DSS compliance; bundling Stripe.js locally is prohibited by Stripe’s terms.
When a customer submits a booking with Stripe as the payment method, their card details are sent directly from the browser to Stripe’s servers to create a Payment Intent. No card data passes through your WordPress server. The plugin sends the Payment Intent amount and currency to Stripe’s API (<code>https://api.stripe.com/v1/payment_intents</code>) using your configured secret key.

<h4>PayPal (optional)</h4>
If you enable PayPal payments, customers are redirected to PayPal’s hosted checkout page to complete payment. No payment data is processed on your server.

This plugin allows editors to create a “People Page” that displays a list of selected site users with photos, bios, titles, profile and website links and more.
When activated via a page template, the plugin creates a drag and drop meta box which editors can use to select users and create headers. These users are listed on the people page template, along with links to their full profile when applicable.
The plugin also creates custom “Title” and “Photo” fields on the “User Edit” admin screen, which are used in theme pages. The plugin also supports “User Photo” plugin images and gravatars.
Three template files for both the “Twenty Twelve” and “Twenty Thirteen” themes are included within the /theme-templates/ directory:
<ul>
<li>“people-page.php” displays the people page index list</li>
<li>“author.php” displays a single user’s info page</li>
<li>“people-page.css” contains basic people page styles for each theme; this file can be customized</li>
</ul>
See “Other Notes” for more details and usage instructions. 
Required Theme Files
After installation a “people-page.php” template must be created inside your theme’s folder in order to use the plugin. Default templates (based on the Twenty Twelve and Twenty Thirteen themes) are included inside the plugin’s ‘theme-templates’ directory. Copy this file to your theme’s directory if you wish to use it. You can also create a custom template from your site’s theme:
<ol>
<li>Duplicate the “page.php” file in your theme’s folder and rename it “people-page.php”</li>
<li>Assign your new page as a template by entering the following comment directly after the first php tag: /* Template Name: People Page */</li>
<li>
Insert the people page index function after the WordPress loop (or wherever you’d like it to appear):
</li>
</ol>
Excerpt Length Argument (integer, optional): Set the character limit where “Biographical Info” will be excerpted. Default = 420.
A CSS stylesheet “people-page.css” that contains basic styles can be found in each of the ‘theme-templates’ subdirectories. Copy it into your theme’s directory to apply the default styles. The styles in this file can be altered to better match your theme.
You may also wish to customize your theme’s “author.php” template, which is used to display users’ profiles. A sample “author.php” file (based on the Twenty Twelve theme) is included in the ‘theme-templates’. To use your theme’s existing “author.php” file, insert the people page author function after the loop (or wherever you’d like it to appear):
<pre><code><?php echo people_page_author(); ?>
</code></pre>
The people page data is stored as an array of user IDs and heading strings. You can access this array directly in your theme using get_post_meta():
<pre><code><?php $people = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'peeps', true ); ?>
</code></pre>
Using the Plugin
To activate the plugin, set a page’s template to use the “People Page” template and update the page. You should now see the people page meta box in the center column. Use this area to select and arrange users and create section headings if desired.
Additional User Edit / Profile Fields
“Title” and “Photo” fields (optional) are added to the bottom of the “Edit User” admin page when the plugin is activated. When set these fields are included in people page displays. If a photo is not set the plugin will attempt to display 1) a photo set using the “User Photo” plugin or 2) a gravatar. Gravatar size is 150 pixels by default.
