Appointments 3.5 – Faster and Prettier

Appointments plugin is getting faster with each update and 3.5 is no exception. It now handles thousands of appointments in a snap. We also updated the calendar design both on front-end and back-end so it’s more usable with multiple staff.

Updated Calendar Design

Since calendar is the main feature of the Appointments plugin, we are constantly improving every detail to make it more useful for our customers and their own clients.

Week View in Admin

Staff Day View in Admin

Calendar View for Clients

Appointment calendar has been updated a bit and is now more compatible with external themes. It now uses system font across all platforms and is less visually distracting than before. Colors have been standardized with WooCommerce Style Guide and spacing is more even to allow better compatibility with your theme.
