Feature Request: Reminder mail for booking #82

Open flegfleg opened 8 years ago

Originally reported by: Ralph W (Bitbucket: ralphW, GitHub: ralphW)

A user should get a reminder mail N days before his booking starts. This is especially important if the user has made a booking for a point in time a bit further in the future (e.g. 3 or 4 weeks from now).

The duration in days "N" should be configurable. The reminder mail should NOT be sent, if the booking has been made not more than X days before the first day of the booking. Could be 1.5 or 2 times N or could be configurable.

The mail text should be configurable via a template.

As we have that now, is it on option to also use it for a reminder mail?

correct. however, i´m not sure when/if i can tackle that.

As far as I understand it, a cron job is now used for closing pending bookings. As we have that now, is it on option to also use it for a reminder mail?

can´t promise anything, lots of moving parts there… would need to set up a wp cron job which sadly depends on the site getting visits (you can google "wp cron job" for some insights").
