What are variables

Variables are elements that can be inserted in email and sms templates (Settings//General Settings//Email and SMS settings). 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 [unit]". If client chose on the booking page provider Mary, he/she will receive the following text "You have booked a service with Mary", if he/she chose John, he/she will receive the text "You have booked a service with John."

iCals and how to use them

In Settings//General Settings//Email and SMS settings you can check the box "Attach iCal to e-mails" and then emails will contain file of isc format. After clicking on that file, it will open in one of your calendars (Outlook, iCalendar,etc)
