I'm setting up a car dealership website using this theme which is WooCommerce compatible. The dealer wants to offer a service where users can pay to reserve or place a hold on a car directly from the website. Using woocommerce, I'm wondering how we could set this up. Also, the hold needs to be set for a certain length of time before it is available again.
It Would work like this: User selects car and clicks 'reserve' which would function like an add-to-cart button but once the reservation is purchased, the front end listing would be marked as 'reserved.' However, the page where I'd like this reservation button to go is not a woocommerce product page: see here
I also don't know how I could update the listing to be marked 'reserved' once the reservation is purchased. ?
Maybe there's a better way to accomplish this? Open to suggestions. Thanks for any help!
What I understand from the question is, user/customer purchases the "holding" period or the "reservation" period of the car (and pays for it). I guess you would want the reserve button to be on the car listing page which (as you have mentioned) is not a woocommerce product page (may be this page). I guess this is a custom post type enabled through theme.
Well, I think what you have described can probably be achieved with customization / additional functionality. This is how I would go about it, if I had to do it.
This may not be the ideal solution to your scenario and may also not have covered all the technical aspects, but it seems possible.
I hope this gives you atleast some direction, if I have correctly understood your requirement.
