Compatibility of the Resources with Simple Subscription Products

With the Booking & Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce, you can effortlessly create resources for Simple Subscription Product Type. However, to create a Subscription product, you will require the WooCommerce Subscriptions extension.

Using the two plugins, let’s learn how to seamlessly assign resources to your simple subscription products.

a) Booking Type: Fixed Time

The Booking & Appointment plugin offers different types of bookings. Let’s look at an instance with the booking type ‘Fixed Time’.

Let’s say that you run a coaching class.

You have created a simple subscription product that offers English lessons every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with a fixed time slot of 10 am to 12 pm.

To create an English lessons subscription product, go to Products > Add New.

Add the title ‘English lessons,’

Add a product image & then choose ‘Simple subscription’ under Product data.

Fill in other information such as the subscription price, expiry period, sign-up fee, etc as shown below:

Under Range type, choose Range of days and keep them from Monday to Friday. This would mean that Resource Vishal would be available/bookable for weekdays.
