Introduction

The Appointment Booking Calendar plugin allows users to book appointments using Time Credit - a certain amount of minutes which can be either added by the admin or purchased by the user. This feature works as an alternative for booking free or paid slots. This feature can be enabled either for specific users or for all users at once.

Enabling Time Credit for Specific Users

To enable the Time Credit feature specifically for each user, navigate to Admin Dashboard → Users → All Users.
