Commons Booking is a plugin for management and booking of common goods. 

== Description ==

This plugin gives associations, groups and individuals the ability to share items (e.g. cargo bikes, tools) with users. It is based on the idea of Commons and sharing resources for the benefit of the community. 

CommonsBooking was developed for the ["Commons Cargobike" movement](http://commons-cargobikes.org/), but it can be used for any kind items.

This is a new version of CommonsBooking, [Commons Booking V.09](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/commons-booking/) will be retired some time in the future.

**Unique features:**

* Items can be assigned to different locations for the duration of a timeframe, each with their own contact information.  
* Simple booking process:  bookable timeframes can be configured with hourly slots oder daily slots.
* Auto-accept bookings: A registered user can book items without the need for administration. 
* Codes: The plugin automatically generates booking codes, which are used at the station to validate the booking. 
* Managers can set holidays or repair slots to prevent items from beeing booked.


**Use cases:**

* Your association owns special tools that are not in use every day, and you want to make them available to a local group.
* You own a cargo bike that you want to share with the community, and it will be placed at different locations throughout the year.
