Recras WordPress plugin Plugin

With this plugin, you can easily integrate data from your Recras instance, such as packages and contact forms, into your own website.

To get started, go to the Recras → Settings page and enter your Recras name. For example, if you log in to Recras at https://mysite.recras.nl/ then your Recras name is mysite. That’s all there is to it! You can now use widgets to retrieve data. All data is retrieved via a secured connection (HTTPS) to ensure data integrity. Other than the request parameters, no data is sent to the Recras servers.

This plugin consists of the following “widgets”. To use them, you first need to set your Recras name (see paragraph above).
* Availability calendar
* Book processes
* Contact forms
* Online booking of packages
* Packages
* Products
* Voucher sales
* Voucher info

Widgets can be added to your site in three ways. Using Gutenberg blocks (recommended), using the buttons in the “classic editor” (limited functionality), or by entering the shortcode manually (discouraged).

Date picker for contact forms

By default, date pickers in contact forms use the browser date picker. If you want to be able to style the date picker, we recommend to enable the date picker we have included with the plugin. You can enable this on the Recras → Settings page.

Note: this setting only applies to standalone contact forms, not to contact forms used in the seamless online booking integration or in book processes.

Styling

No custom styling is applied by default, so it will integrate with your site easily. If you want to apply custom styling, see css/style.css for all available classes. Be sure to include these styles in your own theme, this stylesheet is not loaded by the plugin!
For styling the date picker, we refer you to the Pikaday repository. Be sure to make any changes in your own theme or using WordPress’ own Customizer.

Cache

All data from your Recras is cached for up to 24 hours. If you make important changes, such as increasing the price of a product, you can clear the cache to reflect those changes on your site immediately.

Google Analytics integration

You can enable basic Google Analytics integration for the booking of packages and voucher sales by checking “Enable Google Analytics integration?” on the Recras Settings page. This will only work if there is a global ga JavaScript object. This should almost always be the case, but if you find out it doesn’t work, please contact us!

Support

We would appreciate it if you use our GitHub page for bug reports, pull requests and general questions. If you do not have a GitHub account, you can use the Support forum on wordpress.org.

We only support the latest plugin of the plugin, on the latest version of WordPress (which you should always use anyway!) and only on actively supported PHP branches.
