<li>Medical & dental clinics</li>
<li>Fitness studios & personal trainers</li>
<li>Photography studios</li>
</ul>
<h4>Freemium Model</h4>
<p>Oumma EasyBook follows a standard WordPress freemium model:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>This free version is fully functional</strong> for appointment booking: unlimited services, unlimited practitioners, booking calendar, email notifications, availability management, and design customization.</li>
<li><strong>Premium features</strong> (online payments via Stripe/PayPal/WooCommerce, Google Calendar sync, PDF invoices, export/import) are provided by a <strong>separate add-on plugin</strong> available at <a href="https://oumma-pro.com/oumma-easybook-pro/" rel="nofollow ugc">oumma-pro.com</a>.</li>
<li><strong>No premium code is bundled in this free plugin.</strong> The free plugin provides action and filter hooks (e.g., <code>oumma_easybook_settings_tabs</code>, <code>oumma_easybook_frontend_payment_config</code>) that the premium add-on uses to extend functionality.</li>
<li>In the admin settings, premium features are shown as <strong>non-interactive visual previews</strong> (greyed out at 35% opacity with <code>pointer-events:none</code> and a PRO badge) so administrators can see what features are available with an upgrade. These previews contain <strong>no functional code</strong>: all inputs are <code>disabled</code>, no data is saved, and no premium logic is executed. They are purely informational HTML.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Data Handling</h4>
<ul>
<li>All booking data is stored in custom database tables on your own WordPress installation. No data is sent to external servers except as described in the External Services section.</li>
<li>On plugin deactivation, all data is preserved.</li>
<li>On plugin deletion (uninstall), data is <strong>only removed if the administrator has explicitly enabled</strong> the “Delete all data on uninstall” option in Settings > Advanced. This is an opt-in safeguard to prevent accidental data loss.</li>
<li>When enabled, uninstall removes: all plugin options, transients, custom database tables (services, practitioners, bookings, availability, coupons, waitlist, custom fields, bug reports), the auto-generated booking page, and scheduled cron events.</li>
</ul>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to or references the following third-party services:</p>
<h4>Oumma Pro License API</h4>
<p>The plugin communicates with <code>oumma-pro.com</code> to verify premium license keys when a site administrator enters a license key in the plugin settings.</p>
<ul>
<li>Sends: license key, site URL, site name</li>
<li>Receives: license status, expiration date, activation count</li>
<li>Endpoint: <code>https://oumma-pro.com/wp-json/oeblm/v1/verify</code></li>
<li>This service is only active when the administrator enters a license key and clicks “Activate”</li>
</ul>
<p>The plugin admin pages also contain links to <code>https://oumma-pro.com/oumma-easybook-pro/</code> for purchasing the premium add-on. These are standard hyperlinks — no data is sent when the links are displayed.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service provider: Oumma Pro</li>

</ul>
<h4>Google Fonts</h4>
<p>When a site administrator selects a custom font family in the plugin appearance settings, the plugin loads the font from Google Fonts on the frontend.</p>
<ul>
<li>Loads: CSS font file from <code>https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family={font_name}</code></li>
<li>No personal data is sent by the plugin. Google may collect visitor IP addresses as part of serving the font files.</li>
<li>
<p>This service is only active when the administrator selects a custom font (not the default “inherit” option)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Service provider: Google LLC</p>

<li>Privacy Policy: <a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">https://policies.google.com/privacy</a></li>
</ul>
<h4>Oumma Contact (Admin Link)</h4>
<p>The plugin Email settings tab contains a hyperlink to <a href="https://oumma-pro.com/oumma-contact-pro/" rel="nofollow ugc">Oumma Contact</a>, a companion contact form and SMTP plugin by the same developer. This is a standard HTML link displayed in the admin area only. No data is transmitted when this link is displayed. The link is for informational purposes to help administrators discover compatible plugins.</p>

<li>Click any appointment to view details or make changes</li>
<li>Use the view buttons at top to switch between day/week/month views</li>

</ol>
<h3>Troubleshooting</h3>
<h3>Booking calendar not showing on my page</h3>
<p><strong>Check 1: Verify the shortcode</strong><br />
Make sure you added <code>[bookster_booking_form]</code> exactly (with square brackets).</p>
<p><strong>Check 2: Clear cache</strong><br />
If using a caching plugin, clear your cache: <strong>WP Rocket <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Clear Cache</strong> or similar.</p>
<p><strong>Check 3: Theme conflict</strong><br />
Temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme (Twenty Twenty-Five) to test. If it works, there’s a theme conflict.</p>
<h3>Customers not receiving email confirmations</h3>
<p><strong>Check 1: Email settings</strong><br />
Go to <strong>Bookster <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Integrations <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Email tab</strong> and confirm email notifications are enabled.</p>
<p><strong>Check 2: Check spam folders</strong><br />
Ask customers to check spam/junk folders. Add your domain to their contacts.</p>
<p><strong>Check 3: WordPress email issues</strong><br />
WordPress email can be unreliable. Install an SMTP plugin like <strong>YaySMTP</strong> to improve email delivery:<br />
1. Install YaySMTP plugin<br />
2. Connect it to Gmail, SendGrid, or Mailgun<br />
3. Send a test email to verify</p>
<p><strong>Check 4: Test with yourself</strong><br />
Create a test booking using your own email to confirm emails are sending.</p>
<h3>Time slots not showing as available</h3>
<p><strong>Check 1: Working hours configured</strong><br />
Go to <strong>Bookster <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Schedule</strong> and verify hours are set for the day in question.</p>
<p><strong>Check 2: Agent availability</strong><br />
If using staff members, check <strong>Bookster <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Agents</strong> and verify the agent works on that day.</p>
<p><strong>Check 3: Minimum advance notice</strong><br />
Check <strong>Bookster <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> General <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Restrictions</strong>, if you require 24-hour notice, today’s appointments won’t show.</p>
<p><strong>Check 4: Service duration</strong><br />
If your service is 2 hours but only 1 hour remains before closing time, that slot won’t appear.</p>
<h3>Double bookings happening</h3>
<p>This shouldn’t happen with Bookster. If it does:</p>
<p><strong>Check 1: Multiple admin users</strong><br />
If multiple people manage bookings, ensure everyone refreshes the calendar before creating appointments.</p>
<p><strong>Check 2: Contact support</strong><br />
If this persists, contact Bookster support with specific examples.</p>
<h3>PayPal payments not working</h3>
<ol>
<li>Go to <strong>Bookster <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Payments tab</strong></li>
<li>Verify your PayPal email address is correct</li>
<li>Confirm PayPal is enabled (toggle should be blue/on)</li>
<li>Test in PayPal sandbox mode first</li>
<li>Check if PayPal account is verified and can accept payments</li>
<li>Review PayPal transaction logs for error messages</li>
</ol>
<h3>Calendar showing wrong timezone</h3>
<ol>
<li>Go to <strong>Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> General</strong> in WordPress</li>
<li>Set your city timezone correctly (e.g., “New York” or “Berlin”)</li>
<li>Save changes</li>
<li>Go to <strong>Bookster <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings</strong> and verify timezone matches</li>
<li>Clear browser cache and reload</li>
