03 / Website use cases
Where to use acf appointment summary
Class, booking and event pages often store their date, time and place in ACF fields, and printing them as plain text leaves visitors to work out the weekday, how soon it is, what time that is where they live, and how to get it into their calendar. ACF appointment summary shows the saved appointment as a clear card with a date badge, the weekday and times, the place, Today or In 5 days kept current in the browser, the visitor’s own time when they are elsewhere, and links to add it to Apple, Outlook or Google calendars.

08 / Common setup problems
Troubleshoot acf appointment summary
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why is the time an hour out?
The saved time is read in the site’s time zone from Settings › General. Check that it matches where the appointment takes place.
Why do the calendar links not show?
They are hidden once the appointment has ended, or turned off in the settings.
Why does nothing show?
The date or time is missing or not valid on this post, or it has ended and is set to hide. Add text for that case to show a message instead.
ACF appointment summary plugin questions
Does it need Elementor Pro or ACF Pro?
No. It works with the free versions of Elementor and ACF.
Does it take bookings?
No. It shows an appointment already saved on the post; it does not book, hold places or connect to a calendar service.
How do the calendar links work?
The calendar file is built in the page and downloads straight away; the Google Calendar link opens a new event filled in with the details.
Does it handle visitors in other time zones?
Yes. When the visitor’s clock is in another zone, it adds their own time, and calendar entries use the exact moment.
What happens after it ends?
Choose to mark it as past, show your own text, or hide it. Cached pages switch in the browser.
