Does it require WooCommerce?
Section titled “Does it require WooCommerce?”Yes. WooCommerce must be installed and active (8.0+), with a Local Pickup shipping method enabled in a shipping zone. Pickup shows an admin notice and stays inactive if WooCommerce is missing.
When do the pickup fields show at checkout?
Section titled “When do the pickup fields show at checkout?”Only when the shopper’s chosen shipping method is WooCommerce Local Pickup (Pickup matches method ids starting local_pickup or pickup_location), and at least one enabled location exists. For every other method the fields stay hidden and are not required.
How are time slots generated?
Section titled “How are time slots generated?”From your store-wide weekly opening hours and your slot length. For example, a 09:00-12:00 window at 30 minutes offers 09:00, 09:30, 10:00, 10:30 and 11:00. A day left blank in the settings is closed.
Can I set different opening hours per location?
Section titled “Can I set different opening hours per location?”No. There is one weekly schedule for the whole store, applied to every location. Per-location hours are not a feature.
Is there a “location only” mode (no date/time)?
Section titled “Is there a “location only” mode (no date/time)?”No. Once Local Pickup is selected and a location exists, the customer must choose a location, a date and a time slot, all three are required and re-validated on the server.
What stops a slot from being over-booked?
Section titled “What stops a slot from being over-booked?”Each slot has a capacity. Pickup counts existing orders holding that exact location + date + slot (in the pending, processing, on-hold and completed states); once the count reaches the capacity, the slot is dropped from the list. The count is read at checkout, so there is no queue or cron to set up.
What is lead time and booking horizon?
Section titled “What is lead time and booking horizon?”Lead time (hours) is the minimum notice before the earliest bookable slot, slots too soon are hidden. Booking horizon (days) is how far ahead a customer may book, dates beyond it are not generated, and the date field’s max is capped accordingly. Together they bound the bookable range.
Does it work with the block-based Cart and Checkout?
Section titled “Does it work with the block-based Cart and Checkout?”Pickup declares compatibility with the Cart/Checkout Blocks and with HPOS, and saved pickup details still show on the order, emails and account pages under the block checkout. But the in-checkout field UI is the classic checkout one, the picker is not rendered inside the block checkout.
Where do pickup details appear after an order?
Section titled “Where do pickup details appear after an order?”On the admin order screen (after the shipping address), on the customer’s order/thank-you page, and in the order emails (HTML and plain-text). The location name is snapshotted onto the order, so it stays readable even if you later rename or remove that location.
Are there any shortcodes?
Section titled “Are there any shortcodes?”No. The checkout fields and order display are placed automatically through WooCommerce hooks; there is nothing to insert manually and no template to override.
Does it create database tables?
Section titled “Does it create database tables?”No. Settings live in one pickup_settings option; per-order choices are stored as order meta (_pickup_location, _pickup_location_name, _pickup_date, _pickup_slot). Nothing is sent to any external service.
Does it handle timezones?
Section titled “Does it handle timezones?”Yes. Slots are generated in your store timezone and the date is shown in your WordPress date format.
What happens to my data if I uninstall?
Section titled “What happens to my data if I uninstall?”Deleting the plugin removes the pickup_settings option. Per-order pickup meta is intentionally kept, it is order history needed for fulfilment and accounting.
