When selecting the Duration Based booking type in the Booking and Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce, it shows a ‘Duration Multiplier’ that helps to indicate the number of hours booked. However, some customers find this confusing. By removing the ‘Duration Multiplier’ and just showing the hours label makes it clearer and easier to understand.
Solution: Change Duration Multiplier text on front end when using the Booking and Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce
The code snippet will remove the multiplier text displayed for duration-based type on the bookig product page.
/**
* Changes the displayed text format for duration based on time.
*
* @param string $into_hr_min Original String.
* @param string $duration Duration Value.
* @param string $duration_type Duration Type.
* @param int $product_id Product ID.
* @param array $bkap_setting Booking Settings.
*/
function bkap_hour_min_text_for_duration_field( $into_hr_min, $duration, $duration_type, $product_id, $bkap_setting ){
$into_hr_min = sprintf( __( '%1$s %2$s', 'woocommerce-booking' ), $duration, $duration_type );
return $into_hr_min;
}
add_filter( 'bkap_hour_min_text_for_duration_field', 'bkap_hour_min_text_for_duration_field', 10, 5 );
Output
To clarify the booking duration format the code will change the “8 x 1Hour(s)” format to simply 8 Hour(s) format when using the Booking and Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce.
By default, the duration-based text format in the Booking and Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce is displayed as ‘ x 1Hour(s) ‘ as shown in the below image.
Showing appropriate text in the right place improves clarity and enhances the user experience to make better decisions. For hotel booking services when using our plugin we have provided similar customization such as to change the text of the ‘Number of Days’ and ‘Price Per Day ‘ text displayed on the product booking page.
