Часті питання

What makes Yatoon different from a generic appointment plugin?

Yatoon focuses on salon workflows: multi-service visits, group bookings, service variations, custom-design photos, qualified technicians, Any Staff assignment, shared resources, customer changes, and Square-powered operations.

What does the Square integration cover?

Yatoon Pro supports Square Appointments and POS workflows plus Square online payment and deposit options. Exact behavior depends on correct Square location, service, variation, team-member, and permission mappings.

How does Yatoon protect against schedule conflicts?

It checks staff qualification, working hours, breaks, closed dates, existing appointments, shared resources, and external availability where applicable. A final server-side check runs immediately before the change is saved.

Can one booking contain several services or guests?

Yes. Each guest can have separate services, staff assignments, timing, and reference photos while remaining part of one booking journey.

Can customers and staff manage appointments from a phone?

Yes. The Customer Portal provides secure self-service and the installable Staff Portal is designed for mobile daily operations.

Does it support deposits and online payments?

Yes. Configure the payment method and deposit rules required by your business, then test the full payment and refund workflow in the provider’s test environment before going live.

Is Yatoon multilingual?

Yes. Yatoon is translation-ready and includes PO/MO catalogs for 22 locales, including Spanish for Spain, Mexico, and Argentina. Business-owned service names, descriptions, policies, and custom labels remain editable by the site owner.

Where can I get help?

Downloads, licensing, updates, and priority support are available through Yatoon.com. Copy the privacy-safe technical summary from Operations when reporting an integration problem.

Журнал змін

4.5.0

  • Added public throttling and generic failure responses for gift-card/coupon validation, plus a 60-request-per-minute availability budget.
  • Added explicit local and UTC creation timestamps for appointments so optional Pro background jobs never depend on the MySQL server timezone.
  • Added safe cleanup of optional WooCommerce background jobs when switching from Pro to Free.
  • Pro adds optional WooCommerce checkout, signed webhooks for Zapier/Make/n8n, Zoom meetings and Google Meet.
  • Added an Integrations settings entry with a clear Pro upgrade gate; integrations remain off by default.
  • Includes all search, staff assignment, payment, WhatsApp and reliability improvements prepared for the previous release candidate.

4.4.5

  • Expanded topbar search into a complete catalog of Yatoon pages, hidden tools, settings tabs, settings sections, runtime menus, and English/Chinese aliases with relevance ranking.
  • Added editable Staff Priority to employee profiles; smaller numbers appear first and new employees default to the end of the list.
  • Pro adds PayPal Checkout and restores Stripe deposit checkout; payment gateways remain a Pro feature.
  • Pro adds Meta WhatsApp Cloud API transactional notifications through approved templates.
  • Removed an unreferenced JavaScript build artifact and added release/package validation guidance.
  • Added a visible single-writer database deployment warning to Platform settings.
  • Expanded the admin topbar search with feature keywords and English/Chinese aliases while keeping Pro-only results hidden.
  • Added direct topbar search results for Complete Backup & Restore, including backup, restore, migration, snapshot, 备份, and 恢复 keywords.
  • Hardened admin diagnostics: raw booking and Square inspection endpoints now require WP_DEBUG or YATOON_ENABLE_ADMIN_DIAGNOSTICS, reject invalid dates/service IDs, and HTML-escape database/API output.
  • Enlarged the Add guests and services remove control to a clear 42px circular target and added direct Remove beside Edit on Step 4; confirmation now refreshes the group review only after the service is actually deleted.
  • Added an accessible one-click Remove action beside Edit in the appointment summary; it clears the selected service and dependent options, staff and time without leaving stale totals.
  • Expanded the Customer Account Center with editable profile preferences, balance payment links, signed invoice downloads, package and membership history, and atomic loyalty reward redemption.
  • Added a recommended admin settings view that keeps common store controls visible while placing developer credentials and synchronization internals behind an accessible Advanced toggle.
  • Rebuilt the Step 4 appointment summary as calm, responsive person/service cards with readable staff selection and accessible edit, remove and reorder controls.
  • Removed technical timing offsets and competing green treatments from the customer flow; booking typography is now isolated from theme heading styles.
  • Upgraded Customer Wallet from a placeholder to verified account data for gift cards, packages, memberships, loyalty points, balance due and payment history.
  • Extended Brand & Colors live preview to include page, card, border and primary-action styling before saving.
  • Added a real-salon case study, public trust checklist, three short video storyboards, desktop/mobile regression matrix and automated release-contract checks.
  • Preserved the group-booking return flow introduced in 4.4.4 and retained all established booking, staff and admin workflows.
