Open Schedule Staff edit a person and copy the “Calendar feed (iCal)” link into Google Calendar (“From URL”), Apple Calendar or Outlook. Regenerate the link to revoke old subscriptions.
Go to Schedule Settings Appearance and pick an accent colour, corner style and font; the preview updates as you go. Block themes can follow the theme’s colours instead. For one form only, use the Colours panel in the block sidebar, the Elementor Style tab, or [craftroq_booking accent="#0f766e"].
Copy any file from templates/ into yourtheme/craftroq-schedule/ (ideally in a child theme) and edit the copy. Schedule Settings Developers lists your overrides and flags any that are out of date after an update. See docs/templates.md.
Yes, without code: Schedule Settings Form fields. Add questions (short or long text, number, date, dropdown, checkbox), choose which form they appear on and whether they’re required. Answers are shown on the booking or attendee, in emails ({custom_fields} or one field’s placeholder), in CSV exports and in the personal data tools. Developers can also add fields with the craftroq_schedule_form_fields filter.
