*For third gen. themes(since Infinite), make sure that the theme has been registered with the purchase code before moving forward, check from GoodLayers > Getting Started menu.

1.) Go to ‘Appearance > plugin’, deactivate Goodlayers plugins and delete them. 

2.) After you delete them, you’ll see the message :

3.) Install them and don’t forget to activate too! 

You can use iCal feature to sync the booking with third party service such as Air BnB, VRBO other any other services that support iCal feature.

***Please note that this method only available when you have only one room in ‘Room amount’ setting. If you have more than one room, this feature is not available.

You can import multiple iCal by enter to the new line and fill new iCal url.

Setting Syncing Time Period

You can set the refresh interval for iCal as specific minutes in Room Settings > General Settings > iCal Cache Time(Mins) (Scroll down to the bottom)

However, please note that we can only refresh the imported iCal(i.e. from Air BnB) but note that on Air BnB and VRBO side, they will refresh their imported iCal(i.e. our iCal or other services) about every one hour so there will be a period of time that might occur the duplicate booking. This is nothing we can do about it too.(This problem is not our problem, it’s about how they set the refresh interval.)

Setting Old Data Period in iCal file

You can set the specific months to allow iCal to keep old data. For example, if you set it as ‘2’, all iCal data that’s older than two months will be removed. This feature is used for minimizing the iCal file size.

Syncing iCal with HomeAway

Syncing iCal With iCloud Calendar(Apple)

You can use the benefit of iCal to view your booking in calendar view and also be able to perform the manual booking or manual blocking the room.

1. Open single room edit page and copy iCal url of your website.

2. Open Calendar app from your Mac, on the top menu, clic on ‘File > New Calendar Subscription…’ and enter the url from 1.) then you can set the ‘Auto-refresh’ time as you want.

3. Create a new calendar and make it public.

4. Click to share the calendar and select ‘Message’. At this point, you will get the full url. Change the ‘Webcal://’ at the front of url to ‘http://’ and put the whole url in single room edit page in iCal Sync URL box.

We will go to: Tour Order > Export to CSV

After downloading the CSV complete, please open the Excel > Data > From Text/CSV.

Select the correct character if your language isn’t Latin character.

Click on Close & Load and get the data available in your Excel.

The result:

To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the GoodLayers menu on the left side of your dashboard.
2. Go to ‘Getting Started.’
3. Click on the ‘Refresh License’ button.

If the refresh doesn’t work, you may need to register again.

The ical in the Room:

When you add booking from your calendar that sync iCal with the theme. From theme side, it will only block the booking from that date. It won’t add a new booking record, this is not possible.(Even other service like Airbnb can’t do this as well. They all only block booking date.)

If you place the ical url to Google Calendars, it’ll show which day the tour is booked on the calendar.

Airbnb iCal

The iCal also blocks rooms on Airbnb as well. However, make sure that you set it up properly. https://www.airbnb.com.sg/help/article/99

You have to set the iCal in both direction, so sync Abnb ical to your site and also put your site’s iCal in Abnb as well. Also note that there will be a delay as Abnb only do the calendar refresh every 3 hours : https://take.ms/oxyHj so you may need to manually check for the conflict from time to time and there’s nothing we can do about this.

You can’t publish your tour post when you facing this problem.

To fix it, please change the PHP configuration from “Dedicated FPM application served by Apache” to “FPM application served by Apache” and reverted ‘show_in_rest’ to ‘true’ and then check your website again.

First, go to admin panel > Miscellaneous > Plugins and make sure that you select ‘Font Awesome 6’ from the Icon Type list.

For the top bar social in the header, choose the ‘Icon Type’ to ‘Font Awesome 6’

For the Social and Social Network in page item, choose ‘Font Awesome 6’ from the icon type list

For the social shortcode, put the attribute : icon-type=”font-awesome6″
ex.

[gdlr_core_social_network facebook="#url" twitter="#url" linkedin="#" pinterest="#" instagram="#" icon-size="16px" icon-color="#b1976b" icon-type="font-awesome6"]

– To add the customize field in the register form, please take a look at this file: \wp-content\plugins\tourmaster\include\user-util.php around line 660. You will see the default code like this:

	if( !function_exists('tourmaster_get_profile_fields') ){
		function tourmaster_get_profile_fields(){
			return apply_filters('tourmaster_profile_fields', array(
				'first_name' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('First Name', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'text',
					'required' => true
				),
				'last_name' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Last Name', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'text',
					'required' => true
				),
				'gender' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Gender', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'combobox',
					'options' => array(
						'' => '-',
						'male' => esc_html__('Male', 'tourmaster'),
						'female' => esc_html__('Female', 'tourmaster')
					)
				),
				'birth_date' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Birth Date', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'date',
					'required' => true
				),
				'email' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Email', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'email',
					'required' => true
				),
				'phone' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Phone', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'text',
					'required' => true
				),
				'country' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Country', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'combobox',
					'options' => tourmaster_get_country_list(),
					'required' => true,
					'default' => tourmaster_get_option('general', 'user-default-country', '')
				),
				'contact_address' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Contact Address', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'textarea'
				),
			));
		}
	}	

You can add a new custom field like this after the contact_address field.

				'contact_address' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('Contact Address', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'textarea'
				),
				'your_custom_field' => array(
					'title' => esc_html__('New field', 'tourmaster'),
					'type' => 'textarea'
				),

You can change the custom field type to: combobox, text, date, and textarea. You can try to check the register form now.

1. I recommended backup your website before do anything.

2. Call the file from the parent theme to the child theme to override the original file. Please add this function in the functions.php file of the child theme:

// Call the customize file in the child theme
require_once get_stylesheet_directory() . '/include/header-settings.php';

3. Add the WhatsApp field in the top bar social around line 257 file header-settings.php:

The default code:

					'top-bar-social-icon-type' => array(
	'title' => esc_html__('Icon Type', 'traveltour'),
	'type' => 'combobox',
	'options' => array(
		'font-awesome' => esc_html__('Font Awesome', 'traveltour'),
		'font-awesome5' => esc_html__('Font Awesome 5', 'traveltour'),
	)
),
'top-bar-social-tiktok' => array(
	'title' => esc_html__('Top Bar Social Tiktok Link', 'traveltour'),
	'type' => 'text',
	'condition' => array( 'enable-top-bar-social' => 'enable', 'top-bar-social-icon-type' => 'font-awesome5' )
),

Change the code to:

					'top-bar-social-icon-type' => array(
	'title' => esc_html__('Icon Type', 'traveltour'),
	'type' => 'combobox',
	'options' => array(
		'font-awesome' => esc_html__('Font Awesome', 'traveltour'),
		'font-awesome5' => esc_html__('Font Awesome 5', 'traveltour'),
	)
),
'top-bar-social-whatsapp' => array(
	'title' => esc_html__('Top Bar Social Whats App Link', 'traveltour'),
	'type' => 'text',
	'condition' => array( 'enable-top-bar-social' => 'enable', 'top-bar-social-icon-type' => 'font-awesome5' )
),
'top-bar-social-tiktok' => array(
	'title' => esc_html__('Top Bar Social Tiktok Link', 'traveltour'),
	'type' => 'text',
	'condition' => array( 'enable-top-bar-social' => 'enable', 'top-bar-social-icon-type' => 'font-awesome5' )
),

Copy the header-social.php file from the parent theme to the child theme like this: xxx-child/header/header-social.php file and add the WhatsApp icon on the front end:

The default code:

}else if( $icon_type == 'font-awesome5' ){
	$social_list = array(
		'tiktok' => array('title'=> 'Tiktok', 'icon'=>'fa5b fa5-tiktok'),

Change it to:

}else if( $icon_type == 'font-awesome5' ){
	$social_list = array(
		'whatsapp' => array('title'=> 'WhatsApp', 'icon'=>'fa5b fa5-whatsapp'),
		'tiktok' => array('title'=> 'Tiktok', 'icon'=>'fa5b fa5-tiktok'),
