We have since been contacted by support who kindly extended the website limit, and we can now test and promote to our live website. With that we are happy to extend our star award for both product and its support. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/8b8ec92e2b2efa1091571a7ce69c10d222010eca6dd849a766349e6c23e7549d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-support-6570/)󠁿 [eventhelden](https://profiles.wordpress.org/eventhelden/) 20 Meɣres 2026 I had contact to the developer, which replyed in a few minutes and helped with my design question.

When I hit a snag with migration and accented characters, Roland from Veribo resolved it quickly and professionally. The plugin is stable, the support is excellent, and I couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommended! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/751b57ba588068163b6ad291ed142e3a1186a309d53e1bbb3037c12d3fb53dd5? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[A very easy to use plugin.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-very-easy-to-use-plugin-2/)󠁿 [Nobb](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kurokoya9658/) 25 Yunyu 2025 And great support from the staff.I've been using it for many years, and will continue to do so in the future. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/70440f56eab256779991203b7bcf1541f5073ebc18b8430bdbaa28f4993ed34d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Good Plugin with Great Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/good-plugin-with-great-support-42/)󠁿 [coverberg](https://profiles.wordpress.org/coverberg/) 11 Yunyu 2025 Have been using the plugin for many years and recently had an issue with a ics feed not importing.

I was able to resolve the issue with some custom code after their help identifying the problem ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/73b1bc7e60a6fb30cfd110176d69416c35b24e803ca97a25aecd5842131f05a3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Got it customised to work dynamically with ACF/ Elementor with help of support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/got-it-customised-to-work-dynamically-with-acf-elementor-with-help-of-support/)󠁿 [condraw](https://profiles.wordpress.org/condraw/) 25 Meɣres 2025 If you have one item to rent, the free version is sufficient as you can keep things up to date manually. We need it for several calendars and decided for the pro version, also to synch with other calendars. Synching works very well. With the great help of support/developer and their additional code we were able to use ACF fields to dynamically retrieve the respective booking calendars inside the Elementor single post templates. One template to rule all the properties. So that "simple" does not mean limited. True Wordpress spirit!
