Kibian Reservations

Kibian Reservations lets your guests send a booking request in seconds. They choose their dates and number of guests, and WhatsApp opens with the message already written, ready to send to you.

Every request is also saved in an inbox inside WordPress (Reservations > Requests) and you get an email, so you never lose a request even if the guest does not press send in WhatsApp.

Features

• Booking request form with date range picker, guests, name, phone and an optional message. Also works for appointments (day and time) and one-day requests.
• Minimum nights, maximum guests and optional automatic deletion of old requests.
• Opens WhatsApp with a message built from a template you can edit.
• Request inbox in your WordPress dashboard.
• Email notification for every new request, with a test email button.
• Uses your theme’s font and colors. Change texts, colors and corner radius from the settings page.
• Works with any page builder: Elementor (Shortcode widget), Divi (Code module), block editor (Shortcode block).
• Protection against spam without external services: hidden trap field, rate limit and strict validation.
• Spanish and English.

Add the form to any page with the shortcode [kibian_reservations].

External services

This plugin does not connect to any external service from your server. When a guest sends the form, their browser opens a link to WhatsApp (https://wa.me/) with the message already written, so the guest can send it from their own WhatsApp. The data in that link (dates, guests, name, phone and message) is the data the guest typed. WhatsApp is provided by Meta Platforms, Inc.: Terms of Service, Privacy Policy.

Privacy

Requests are stored in your own WordPress database: name, phone, dates, guests and the optional message. Visitor IP addresses are not stored; a hashed IP is only kept for a few minutes to limit abuse. As the site owner you are responsible for informing your visitors, for example in your privacy policy.

Third-party libraries

This plugin bundles flatpickr 4.6.13 (MIT license) for the date picker: https://flatpickr.js.org/ (source: https://github.com/flatpickr/flatpickr).
