- 2. If you don't have account with us yet, please register on SimplyBook.me (you can register here), or visit our website and press big button “Get Free Account”). If you already have account, please log into it.
- 3. Enable API Custom Feature in the Custom Featuress section of SimplyBook.me admin page in the section "For developers" by pressing green button "enable near it.
After you enabled the Custom Features, please press "settings",
there you will see 2 keys: Api public key (API Key) and API secret key.
- 4. Insert those keys into the settings of Simplybook plugin in your WordPress account.
- 5. Insert your company login (the one in url of your admin page, e.g in the link https://image.secure.simplybook.me/, image is company name )
- 6. In your WordPress admin site navigate to "Pages" and create a new page specifically for bookings (you can also add it to already existing page if you wish, the process is the same). Then, paste '[simplybook]' tag in that page.
- 7. Example of WordPress plugin (may look different depending on your WP theme and SimplyBook.me settings). You can also use CSS option in the settings of SimplyBook WP plugin to adjust the look of the plugin to the design of your website.

- Error while setting up the widget.
If you got the error "Seems the method cannot be found on your server. Possible reasons may include: PHP option 'allow_url_fopen' is not enabled, PHP CURL is not enabled. Please ask your hoster for support regarding absence of required methods."
- Please check if your PHP has the necessary methods (allow_url_fopen and PHP CURL) on.
- To check this, you can install PHP Settings plugin.
- After you have checked and the necessary methods are Off, please contact your hosting provider and request activating them.
- If those methods are On, there may be another reason that prevents SimplyBook.me plugin from displaying on your page, please contact our support and we will try to help you.
if you receive the message that Fatal error occurred when installing the plugin most likely you will need to update your PHP version, the preferable version is 5.3 and higher.
