iCalendars Add-on: Chauffeur Taxi Booking System

Seamless calendar sync for your bookings — automatically. The iCalendars Add-on for the Chauffeur Taxi Booking System lets you synchronize your booking calendar with external calendar applications using the iCalendar (.ics) standard.

Whether you use Apple Calendar, Outlook, or other iCalendar-compatible tools, this add-on ensures your vehicle availability stays up-to-date across systems — reducing the risk of double bookings and helping you manage your resources more effectively. You can both export reservations to external calendars and import bookings from supported third-party calendars, including scheduled synchronization with cron jobs.

Requirements

Please Note: This add-on requires the latest version of the Chauffeur Taxi Booking System for WordPress to function properly.

• iCalendar (.ics) Support: Compatible with most calendar software, including Apple Calendar, Outlook, and Google Calendar.

• Logs and Event History: View all sync operations and imported event details directly within your WordPress dashboard.
