This plugin gives associations, groups and individuals the ability to share items (e.g. cargo bikes, tools) with users. It is based on the idea of the commons and sharing resources for the benefit of the community.
CommonsBooking was developed for the <a href="http://commons-cargobikes.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">“Commons Cargobike” movement</a>, but it can be used for any kind items.
Unique features:
<ul>
<li>Items can be assigned to different locations for the duration of a timeframe, each with their own contact information. You can display all locations via shortcode as an interactive map.</li>
<li>Simple booking process: bookable timeframes can be configured with hourly slots oder daily slots.</li>
<li>Auto-accept bookings: A registered user can book items without the need for administration. </li>
<li>Codes: The plugin automatically generates booking codes, which are used at the station to validate the booking. </li>
<li>Managers can set holidays or repair slots to prevent items from beeing booked.</li>
</ul>
Use cases:
<ul>
<li>Your association owns special tools that are not in use every day, and you want to make them available to a local group.</li>

CommonsBooking


We manage more than 20 items (mostly bikes) via our website. CommonsBooking does a great job in connecting all of the different user roles via website and email features and so effectivly covers the whole process. Also many optional features can be enabled via admin panel.



From the various booking plugins that you can download for free (from the wordpress plugin repo) it is the only one that supports assigning locations your items and with that being able to render a map of all the items.



I like that its actively developed and you can contribute easily to the code base.


Great plugin (Only booking system that includes a map)

CommonsBooking is a plugin for the management and booking of common goods.
