Webtech Beach Reservation Manager Lite gives beach club operators a complete booking system built natively on WordPress.

Core features:

Spot management — define sectors, rows and spot types (umbrella, gazebo, cabin, bungalow); activate or deactivate individual spots at any time.
Availability management — visual calendar showing free/occupied days per spot; day-by-day detail with occupancy counters.
Online booking form — frontend shortcodes let visitors search available spots, choose dates, fill in their details and confirm a reservation. Double-booking protection is enforced at the database level with unique constraints.
Manual bookings — create reservations directly from the admin panel for phone or walk-in customers; spot search and automatic rate lookup included.
Basic rates — configure seasonal rates (daily, weekly, fortnightly, monthly) per spot type; daily overrides for peak dates.
Customer management — automatic customer record creation on booking; searchable customer list with booking history.
Payment method settings — choose between pay on arrival (in person) and bank transfer (bonifico), or enable both. Bank transfer details (IBAN, account holder, reference prefix) appear automatically in the confirmation email. If no method is selected, a generic payment message is shown.
Email notifications — confirmation email to the customer (with payment instructions) and notification email to the administrator on every new booking; configurable from Settings.
Operations map — daily visual overview of occupied and free spots using the beach plan; one-click check-in and check-out.
Admin dashboard — quick counters, occupancy summary and monthly revenue chart, plus contextual notifications for new online bookings received while operators work in the plugin dashboard.
Basic reports — booking counts by status, by month, by year; recent bookings list.
Beach plan — drag-and-drop grid editor to draw the physical layout of the beach; used by the operations map and the frontend map view.
Cancellation policy — configurable free-cancellation window with optional penalty (first day or full stay); customers can cancel online within the allowed period.
Privacy tools — integrates with WordPress personal data export and erasure tools and provides configurable data-retention controls.
Double-booking protection — atomic database transactions and a dedicated occupancy index prevent the same spot from being booked twice for the same dates.
Uninstall — optional data cleanup on plugin removal; configurable from Settings.

Extensible architecture:

The plugin exposes action and filter hooks so a future Pro add-on can extend it without modifying core files. Key hooks: wbbrm_booking_init, wbbrm_booking_admin_menu, wbbrm_booking_ajax_map, wbbrm_booking_frontend_assets, wbbrm_booking_admin_assets, wbbrm_force_load_assets.

Shortcodes:

[wbbrm_search] — date-picker and availability search.
[wbbrm_booking] — full booking form (auto-loaded on the page created at activation).
[wbbrm_conferma] — booking confirmation page with payment instructions.
[wbbrm_mie_prenotazioni] — customer booking lookup and online cancellation.

Does the plugin prevent double bookings?: Yes. Each spot-day combination is stored in a dedicated wbbrm_occupazioni table with a unique index. Bookings are created inside database transactions, so two simultaneous requests for the same spot and dates cannot both succeed.
Can I create bookings manually from the admin?: Yes. Use Beach Bookings New booking to create a reservation for any available spot. The form searches availability and calculates the rate automatically.
Does the plugin send email confirmations?: Yes. A confirmation email is sent to the customer and a notification to the administrator address configured in Settings. The customer email includes payment instructions based on the methods you have configured.
What payment methods are supported?: The Lite version supports two offline payment methods: pay on arrival (in person) and bank transfer. You can enable one or both from Settings Payment methods. Online card payments are not included in the Lite version.
Is the plugin compatible with page builders?: Shortcodes work with the WordPress block editor, Elementor, Divi, WPBakery and Beaver Builder. If your builder stores content in a custom format not automatically detected, use the wbbrm_force_load_assets filter to force-load frontend assets.
What data is stored and for how long?: The plugin stores booking records, customer records, security logs and an audit trail. Retention periods are configurable in Settings. On uninstall, all plugin data and tables can be removed automatically (configurable).
Does the plugin contact any external service?: No. The Lite version does not make any external HTTP requests and does not load any remote resources. All assets are served locally.
What privacy tools does the plugin provide?: The plugin integrates with the WordPress personal data export (Tools Export Personal Data) and erasure (Tools Erase Personal Data) tools. It also provides configurable retention controls, rate limiting and audit logging. Site owners remain responsible for evaluating and meeting the privacy and legal requirements that apply to their site and organization.

Cofnod Newid

1.0.43

Fixed a fatal error in the Availability grid caused by malformed translated sprintf() placeholders.
Fixed malformed translated placeholders in Beach Plan labels.

1.0.42

Reviewer cleanup: replaced file-wide PHPCS suppressions in templates with prefixed local variables and narrow, documented exceptions only where required.
Hardened selected live database queries by preparing custom-table identifiers with %i, without changing booking, pricing or notification behavior.

1.0.41

Added contextual, per-user notifications for new online bookings on the plugin dashboard, with lightweight polling only while that dashboard is visible.
Notifications use nonce and capability checks, can be marked as read, and do not create site-wide WordPress admin notices.

1.0.40

Booking customer identity is now read from the immutable per-booking customer snapshot, so bookings sharing the same contact email can retain different guest names.
Creating a booking with an existing email no longer rewrites the master customer name; historical bookings and transactional views remain stable.

1.0.39

Fixed the manual-booking Beach map view: corrected JavaScript fallback precedence that discarded the rendered map HTML after a successful availability search.
Added a safe empty-map diagnostic and clearer responsive List/Beach map controls without changing booking or availability rules.

1.0.38

Fixed booking-state persistence and repaired affected pending bookings created by earlier builds.
Fixed payment accounting so the required deposit is not treated as already paid, and balances are derived from the amount actually collected.
Fixed rescheduling warnings and synchronized payment state after price changes.
Fixed admin assets on the Core diagnostics screen.

1.0.37

Fixed admin asset routing so the responsive layout and shared JavaScript load on every plugin submenu screen.
Fixed WordPress 6.9.1+ notices caused by view scripts depending on an unregistered admin script.

1.0.36

Security: enforced the record-specific capability before deleting bookings, customers, rates or beach spots.
Security: completed context-aware attribute escaping across booking, search and availability views.

1.0.35

Security: hardened AJAX nonce verification and capability checks across all public and administrative handlers.
Security: fixed public request rate limiting so an active block cannot be bypassed when the shorter request window expires.
Security: added context-aware escaping for rendered beach-map HTML and reviewed dynamic output across plugin views.

1.0.34

Compatibility: replaced PHP 8.2-only standalone true return types with bool in the AJAX API gateway, preserving PHP 8.0/8.1 compatibility.
Audit: scanned the plugin for syntax requiring PHP newer than 8.0; no additional incompatible syntax was found.
