'''Please note!''' These are general booking notifications settings so if you turn some of them off it will also influence similar types related to other features(i.e. if you disable booking confirmations to providers there then common confirmations, as well as group, recurring batches confirmation notifications will become off)

=What are variables=
   −
Variables are elements that can be inserted in email and sms templates (<span style="background-color:#d4f8e5; padding:5px; border-radius:5px;">Settings</span> -> <span style="background-color:#d4f8e5; padding:5px; border-radius:5px;">General Settings</span> -> <span style="background-color:#d4f8e5; padding:5px; border-radius:5px;">Email and SMS settings</span>). These variables will denote the chosen item after the booking is made. For example you have 2 providers: Mary and John. In email template you insert text "You have booked a service with [provider]". If the client chose on the booking page provider Mary, they would receive the following text "You have booked a service with Mary", if they chose John, they would receive the text "You have booked a service with John."<br>
