You can add booking form directly on your page instead of a button and a lightbox. There are two ways you can do that:
Shortcode
You can add [latepoint_book_form] shortcode to the place on your page where you want the form to be rendered. You can customize the form using shortcode attributes. Example of using attributes:
[latepoint_book_form selected_agent="1" hide_side_panel="yes"]List of available attributes:
Customize Form Appearance
| Attribute | Description | Default | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| hide_side_panel | Setting to "yes" hides the left side panel of a booking form | "no" | "yes", "no" |
| hide_summary | Setting to "yes" hides the summary panel | "no" | "yes", "no" |
Skip steps and control available data
| Attribute | Description | Example | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-selecting step value | |||
| selected_location | Skip location step by setting to location "ID" or to "any" to auto assign any available location. | "1", "any" | |
| selected_agent | Skip agent step by setting to agent "ID" or to "any" to auto assign any available agent. | "1", "any" | |

| calendar_start_date | Setting this attribute to a date forces the calendar to start on that date.

| selected_start_date | This attribute should be set together with the selected_start_time attribute. Setting these two attributes to a specific date and time, will make date & time selection step to be skipped. | "2024-07-25" | |
