Wordpress Booking System

    I have been looking for a wordpress booking system plug in for several days, but can't find something that fits my needs.

    We're looking to start a BBQ dinner show on Guam. I can build a site with wordpress and translate the pages using a plug in, but the main issue with most booking systems is that they are not multilingual.

    I need the following features:

    Price :

    • VIP
    • Adult
    • Children

    Multilingual:
    • English
    • Japanese
    • Korean
    • Chinese
    • Russian

    Time when dinner starts and ends

    Calendar: option to disable the days that there is no show (for instance Wednesdays, Sundays and Holidays)

    Payment Gateway

    Form with the names of attendants

    Is there anyone who can lead me to software or a plug in that works with wordpress and offers the features I need? Or other options? Thanks.

    Thanks, but I arelady checked events+.

    Our show is not a one-time event, it's a recurring show, 5 days a week. This plug in is unfortunately not what I'm looking for.

    ahh. This is commercial but it will handle recurring events. I was leaning more towards events + for something I have to do fairly soon but this is quite sound looking.

    hope that helps,

    Thanks, I checked the events plug in too, but I don't understand the translation part of it (http://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/translating/)

    I wish I there were tutorial videos because I don't understand anything about those files and how you actually do it.

    And I assume this is not multilingual, but unilingual.

    I'm looking for something liek Checkfront (http://www.checkfront.com/), but this is only in English, while our tourists will be Korean, Japanese, Russian and Chinese mainly.

    Just grab this http://www.poedit.net/ open .po file and you can manually translate the strings for each language. Its much easier than it looks at first glance. Left is the original string in English. On the right you translate the string for the language you need.

    I'm sorry. I for instance also don't understand what you then need to do with that .po file.

    But thanks, maybe I'll look into it again.

    I would suggest checking the free version of it first. That is your translation file. Its really pretty simple.

    I assume it's also unilingual, I have filled out their contact form. Needs to be multilingual, so I think I'll need to find someone who can build a custom-made booking system.
