vcita Appointment Booking and Online Scheduling Plugin for WordPress

The vcita Online Scheduling plugin for WordPress makes it easy to add the popup widget to your website, without requiring additional coding knowledge.

Note: Wordpress requires a paid subscription plan to add any plugins including the vcita plugins.
Important: The WordPress plugin may be incompatible with your WordPress theme or with other plugins. If you are having any trouble with installing or using the WordPress plugin on your website, please use our platform-independent HTML implementation method.

  2. Locate and install the Appointment Booking and Online Scheduling by vcita plugin.

Enable/Disable the Popup

  1. In the plugin Settings, switch to the Add to Site tab.
  2. Toggle the Show Widget on Site switch to enable or disable the popup on your website. The popup will appear on all pages. If you only want to show the popup on certain pages, you will not be able to use the plugin. You should instead do a custom implementation.

  1. Pop up after 5 seconds: toggle this switch on if you would like the popup floating button to expand after 5 seconds on your website. The expanded popup contains more widget text and optionally, an image or business logo. Leave the switch toggled off if you just want to use the floating call to action button.
