Stub is a booking and appointment scheduling plugin for Craft CMS 5. Built for service businesses, salons, consultants, and anyone who needs to accept bookings online. Multi-provider scheduling, Stripe payments, and a drop-in frontend booking form — no Commerce dependency required.

Features

Services

Define bookable services with duration, pricing, buffer times (before/after), capacity per slot, and color coding. Services support soft delete and drag-to-reorder.

Multi-Provider Scheduling

Each provider (staff member) gets:

Weekly schedule — Set working hours per day of week (in the provider's own timezone)
Breaks — Recurring break periods (lunch, etc.) per day of week
Blocked dates — Date ranges for vacations, holidays, or closures
Service assignments — Choose which services each provider offers
Optional Craft user link — Tie a provider to a Craft user account

Bookings (Craft Element Type)

Bookings are native Craft elements. This means:

Full element index with column customization, sorting, and search
Status filters: Pending, Confirmed, Completed, Cancelled, No Show
Trash/restore support
Status transitions with cancellation reason tracking
Payment status tracking (Unpaid, Paid, Refunded)
Reference numbers (e.g. STB-20260215-A1B2)

Availability Engine

The slot generation algorithm respects all constraints:

Provider's weekly schedule and timezone
Breaks and blocked dates
Service duration and buffer times (before + after)
Existing bookings and service capacity
Minimum notice period and max advance booking window

Frontend Booking Form

A vanilla JS step wizard (no React/Vue dependency) with 6 steps:

Select Service — Cards with name, duration, price
Select Provider — AJAX-loaded providers for the chosen service
Pick Date & Time — Custom calendar grid + time slot list
Customer Info — Name, email, phone, notes with client-side validation
Payment — Stripe Payment Element (if service has a price)
Confirmation — Reference number and booking summary
