wprooms — Reserve a Room

No-code WordPress plugin for study-room booking. Staff manage rooms and rules under Reserve a Room in wp-admin; patrons book instantly with the [reserve_a_room] shortcode. Bookable hours come from the Library Hours plugin. Replaces LibCal Spaces.

• Per-room booking rules, including an optional daily booking limit per patron
• Confirmation and cancellation emails
• Stores bookings in a dedicated database table

Changelog

This project uses Semantic Versioning.

1.1.1

• Drop "MCW" from the plugin's display name (now just "Reserve a Room"). Cosmetic only; internal code identifiers, the option name, and the database table are unchanged.

1.1.0

• Add a 12-hour/24-hour time format toggle to the front-end booking widget. Display-only: switches how times are shown in the grid, aria-labels, and reservation form. Submitted data, stored bookings, and confirmation emails are unaffected and always use 24-hour time.

1.0.8

• Fix: honeypot anti-bot field falsely blocked reservations in Chrome/Edge. Chromium autofill matched the hidden field by its name="website" and silently filled it from saved profile data, tripping the bot check. Renamed the field and changed how it's hidden so autofill no longer targets it.

1.0.7

• Single-source MCW_ROOMS_VERSION from the plugin header instead of a hardcoded value that could drift.
