Description

AB Veh Take is a robust vehicle and journey booking plugin designed for transport services, taxis, and private drivers. It provides a seamless front-end booking experience that integrates beautifully with your theme.

Major features include:
* One-Way & Multi-Stop Bookings: Let your customers request standard A-to-B journeys, or complex multi-stop routes with wait times.
* Elementor Integration: Includes the “AB Veh Take Form” Elementor widget so you can drag, drop, and style your booking form visually.
* Shortcode Support: Easily embed the form anywhere using [ab_veh_take_form].
* Admin Dashboard: A dedicated backend area to manage, approve, or delete booking requests with bulk actions.
* Availability Calendar: Define custom availability (Wide, Limited, Unavailable) for specific dates or weekends.
* Customization: Fully customize colors, typography, vehicle types, layout dimensions, and all form text labels directly from the settings page.
* Email Notifications: Sends instant confirmation emails to customers and admin alerts for new bookings.

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/ab-veh-take directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
  3. Use the AB Veh Take -> Settings screen to configure your admin email, colors, and text.
  4. Place the “AB Veh Take Form” Elementor widget or [ab_veh_take_form] shortcode on any page.
How do I change the vehicle types?

Navigate to the “AB Veh Take -> Settings -> General” page in your WordPress admin. There, you can add, remove, or rename the vehicle types offered in the booking form.

What shortcode should I use?

Use [ab_veh_take_form].

Are emails not sending?

If you are testing on a local server, emails may not send. On a live server, the plugin uses the standard WordPress wp_mail() function. Ensure your server is configured to send emails, or use a dedicated SMTP plugin for maximum reliability.
