So i notice a few things that are not consistent.

#1 woocomerce booking is the same as woocommerce appointments but better with more features so why have both modules? Is there a difference?

Can not enable peodict addon module because woocomerce product addons is now included in wc appointments, however mvx pro does not recognize it.

Hi There, Thanks for your coopeartion. Our replies are inline –
1. woocomerce booking is the same as woocommerce appointments but better with more features so why have both modules? Is there a difference?
>>Both the modules are not same.
Choose WooCommerce Bookings if you need flexibility for various booking scenarios, including rentals, events, and multi-day bookings.
Choose WooCommerce Appointments if you’re focused on managing time-specific appointments for service-based businesses.

2. Can not enable peodict addon module because woocomerce product addons is now included in wc appointments, however mvx pro does not recognize it.
>>Please insert the following code into the functions.php file of your active theme. This will ensure that the Product Add-On plugin is activated even when the WooCommerce Appointment plugin is active, allowing the Product Add-On module to function properly for vendors.Our team is looking for a permanent solution to resolve this issue. As sson as we will have an update we will let you know.-

add_action( 'admin_init', 'enable_addons', 99 ) ;
function enable_addons() {
if ( is_plugin_active( 'woocommerce-appointments/woocommerce-appointments.php' ) ) {
activate_plugins( 'woocommerce-product-addons/woocommerce-product-addons.php' );
}
}

@Phillip May, Could you please share the specific error you encountered after adding the code? On our end, the shared code worked as expected, successfully activating both the WooCommerce Appointments and WooCommerce Product Add-ons plugins without any issues (https://tinyurl.com/299fsvqm).

We look forward to your response to assist you further.

i have tried the latest MVX Pro update that inludes the css fix for appointments.

there are important things you need to know:

The woocommerce booking addon already does everything the appointments plugin does, and more.

You can already create appointments with the booking addon just like you can with the appointments addon, the appointments addon is a complete wasted integration.

furthermore the availability setting for appointments isn’t working, and there are all the other features we mentioned before you never added like the vendors google calendar etc.

when setting the availability for 9am-6pm, appointements only show availability up to 12 noon.
see attached pictures.

Hello @Phillip May, We have integrated support for both WooCommerce Bookings and WooCommerce Appointments within our plugin as modules, allowing users to explore their available features and choose the one that best suits their business needs.

Since Google Calendar integration was recently added to the WooCommerce Appointments plugin, support for vendors has not been implemented yet. However, we recognize its importance for your business and have prioritized it for future updates. Hopefully within our next 2 or 3 updates we will be able to provide you with an update for the same.

Now, regarding the availability issue you mentioned, we have checked the flow on our end. And when the appointment duration is set to 1 hour (https://tinyurl.com/25w9tu4f) for an appointment product where the availability is set from 5:15 AM to 5:15 PM (https://tinyurl.com/25mp777j), the system shows bookable time as 5:15 AM to 4:15 PM (https://tinyurl.com/2xwxbp7h). This behavior is consistent for both vendors and admins. So it seems that on our end the time shows accordingly. Now it will be great if you can share a video of the settings you have done on your end so that we can look into it and check the same on our end to assist you further accordingly.

i removed the appointment plugin because it causes conflicts with product addons and the booking addon already has the same appointment feature without any of the conflicts
