Step By Step Guide To Create Taxi Cab Booking System
In this part, we’ll show you how to create a taxi cab booking system on your WP site using the E-Cab Taxi Booking plugin. Let’s take a closer look at each step!
Step 1: Install and activate eCab Plugin
Before you start, make sure you’ve got your WordPress website up and running. If not, take a moment to set up WordPress first.
Once that’s sorted, follow these simple steps to install and activate the plugin:
Head to your WordPress dashboard. Look for the “Plugins” menu and hit “Add New” below it.
In the search bar, type “WordPress Taxi Cab Booking Plugin” and wait a bit. The plugin you need will pop up at the top of the search results.
Click on “Install Now.” Once it’s installed, hit “Activate.
But hold on, there’s a little setup dance before we dive in. You need to “Install and Activate” the WooCommerce Plugin first because our Taxi Booking plugin buddies up with it.
Now, do some basic tweaks in the WooCommerce plugin. Hit “Next,” set the General Settings, and if you’re feeling impatient, just click “Finish & Save.” The setup is done!
We’re almost done with this step. Alright, now let’s get into the exciting part!
Step 2: Add A New Transportation
After successfully installing and activating the plugin, you’ll see a “Transportation” drop-down menu in your WordPress Dashboard. Hover your mouse pointer on the menu, and click on “Add New Transporation” to create a new Taxi cab booking system.
On the new page, first, you have to add a title to the new booking system. Generally, here you’ll put the brand or model name of the vehicle.
Then, scroll down to the “Transportation Information Settings” section, and click on “General Info” to proceed.
Keep the On/Off Feature turned on, and then add the Name, Model, Engine CC, Fuel Type, Maximum passenger, and Maximum Bag capacity of the new vehicle.
If you want to add any new criteria, click on the “Add New Item” button at the bottom. Let’s move on to the Date settings.
In the Date menu, select the Date Type, add a Repeated start date, Repeated After, and maximum advanced day booking.
Then, click the “Off Days & Dates” option. Check mark the off days and dates of the new taxi booking system. Click “Add New Off Date” to create your preferred off dates for the vehicle.
In the Pricing section, first, you have to select the pricing option that you want to provide, from the existing pricing types. Let’s say we’ll choose “Manual as fixed location” and move forward.
Then, add new start locations, and end locations with the fixed pricing by clicking on the “Add New Price” button. If you want, you can also add the Waiting time price/hour.
Turn on the “Extra Service setting” if you want to provide any additional services. Click on “Add Extra New Service” to create and add new ones.
Afterwards, we’ll move to the Gallery section, where you can add images of the driver or any other services that you want to display to the customers while checking out.
If you don’t want to enable the option, then turn off the slider from the top of the page. Click on the “Image” option to add any new ones.
Step 3: Publish And Preview
Before publishing it, you must add a featured image. So, go to the top of the page, and click on “add new featured image” to proceed.
Now, you can add the vehicle’s image as the featured image for the new booking page. Choose one from any existing one, or upload a new image from your device.
We’re almost done! Before publishing your new taxi booking, you can click the “Preview” option to view it and check all the info and other details, if they’re all okay.
After checking all the stuff carefully, click “Publish” and your new taxi booking system is now complete, and active.
