Online appointment booking for beauty, hair and nail studios, spas and podiatry: your clients book right on your website.

== Description ==

**termeo** is appointment booking for the beauty industry: cosmetics,
hairdressers & barbers, nail studios, spa & massage and podiatry. Treatments,
working hours, staff and client records live in one place: in your studio. This
plugin brings the booking form to your own WordPress website.

It works just as well for physiotherapy, tattoo studios, dog groomers or
veterinary practices, because you define services, durations and times
yourself.

Your clients book without leaving your site. You do not need a second
appointment book.

= What this plugin does =

It is the display, not the appointment management:

* **One shortcode.** Put `[termeo]` on a page, done. Several per page work too.
* **Fetches the booking form from your studio.** Treatments, prices, free slots
  and your team come from there, fresh on every page view; there is nothing to
  maintain here.
* **Looks the way you want.** Colours, layout and icons of the form are set in
  your studio, matching your website or deliberately different. Your website
  does not recolour the form, and the form changes nothing on your website.
* **Stores nothing.** Only your studio's address and key stay in WordPress. No
  client data, no appointments.

= What your termeo studio does =

Booking, scheduling and notifications happen there, not in WordPress:

* **The whole booking flow.** Treatment, extras, staff member, date, time,
  details, confirmation. With voucher codes, if you issue any.
* **Your studio calculates free slots** from working hours, holidays, special
  days and appointments already taken. You maintain no slot lists.
* **Multiple treatments** are scheduled as one contiguous appointment,
  including changeover time between areas.
* **Confirmation and reminder** are sent by your studio, not by WordPress.
* **Client records, calendar and statistics** stay where you keep them anyway.

= Privacy, specifically =

* **Fonts come from the plugin, not from Google.** Whoever opens your site
  leaves no trace at Google just because a font is loaded. This cannot be
  switched by accident; the plugin knows no other way.
* **No third-party services.** The plugin loads nothing from advertising or
  analytics services and from no other foreign server. It only talks to your
  studio, whose address you enter yourself.
* **No visitor data to us.** What a client types into the form goes to your
  studio. In addition, the plugin reports to your studio which version is
  installed here, so you can see in your studio whether an update is due.

= External service =

This plugin is the display for termeo and **requires a termeo studio**.
Without a studio address and key it shows nothing. termeo is a paid service
with a trial period; the plugin itself is free and unlocks nothing.

When a page with the shortcode is opened, the form in your visitor's browser
requests your studio's treatments, free slots and settings; when a booking is
submitted, the entered data goes there.

== Installation ==

1. Install and activate the plugin.
2. Open **Settings → termeo**. No termeo studio yet? A button there takes you
   to the signup, and afterwards you come back here.
3. **Enter address and key.** Both are in your studio (its admin is in German)
   under *Einstellungen → Online-Buchung*, card *Auf meiner
   WordPress-Website*. The page checks them right away and tells you your
   studio's name once it worked.
4. **Allow this website in your studio**, on the same card. Without that entry
   the browser blocks the requests and the form stays empty.
5. Put the **shortcode `[termeo]`** on the page where bookings should happen.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I need a termeo account? =

Yes. The plugin shows your studio's booking form; without a studio there is
nothing to show. You start the signup right from the settings page.

= The form does not appear. What is wrong? =

Almost always the allow list: your website must be entered in your studio
under *Deine Website freigeben*, otherwise the browser refuses the requests.
The plugin's settings page tells you whether address and key are correct. It
cannot check the allow list, because that is decided only in your visitor's
browser.

= Does the plugin store anything in my WordPress? =

Only your studio's address and key, no client data and no appointments.
Deleting the plugin removes those two as well.

= Can I have several booking forms on one page? =

Yes, the shortcode works any number of times. All of them show the same
studio.

= Does the plugin load fonts from Google? =

No, never. The font files are part of the plugin and are served by your own
server.

= Does the form look like my website? =

If you want it to. Colours, layout and icons are set in your studio, matching
your website or deliberately different. If you know your way around your
website's design, you can fine-tune the colours there as well, for example:

`.termeo-widget { --brand-primary: #7a5c3e; }`

= Does it work with caching plugins? =

Yes. The form fetches free slots only after the page has loaded, so even a
cached page shows current appointments.

1. The booking form on a WordPress page.
2. Choosing a treatment and extras.
3. Free slots for one day.
