About Quote Calculation System

Secure vehicle quote calculator. Customers request quotes by days or hours, and admins confirm pricing.

Quote Calculation System is a comprehensive tool for vehicle rental, tour, and transfer businesses. It allows customers to request quotes based on vehicle hourly and daily rates, with flexible booking durations (Days & Hours) and pickup/drop-off locations.

Version 2.0.0 was a complete modern rewrite! It transitioned from an instant-booking model to a professional Quote Request System. Direct payment gateways were removed to give administrators full control over pricing, duration verification, and offline payment collection. Version 2.0.3 adds powerful admin tools like CSV Export and a Dashboard Widget!

Key Features

Flexible Pricing (Hourly & Daily): Set both hourly and daily rates for your vehicles. Customers can easily select their booking duration in Days and Hours on the frontend form.
Quote Request System: Customers submit their details and receive an estimated price. Admins review the request and confirm the exact price via email.
Flexible Text-Based Locations: Customers can type in exact pickup and drop-off addresses instead of being restricted to a predefined dropdown list.
Admin Dashboard Widget: Quickly view your 5 most recent quote requests right from your main WordPress dashboard.
1-Click CSV Export: Easily export all your booking data to a CSV file for accounting, reporting, or backups.
Database Booking Management: All quote requests are saved to the WordPress database under a dedicated “Bookings” menu. Never lose a lead!
Automated Email Notifications:
- Admins receive an instant email with all booking details.
- Customers receive a confirmation email upon submission.
- Customers receive automated email updates when you change the booking status (e.g., from “Quote Requested” to “Confirmed” or “Paid”).
Modern & Secure Architecture: Built using native WordPress Custom Post Types. 100% jQuery-free, fully sanitized, and compliant with the latest WordPress.org security standards.
Backward Compatible: Your old [quote-system] shortcodes still work perfectly.

How It Works

Add Vehicles: Go to Vehicles > Add New. Set the vehicle name, upload a featured image, and set the Hourly and/or Daily Rate.
Customer Requests Quote: The customer fills out the form with their pickup/drop-off addresses, date, and estimated duration (Days & Hours).
Admin Reviews: You receive an email and can view the request in your WordPress Dashboard under “Bookings” (or use the new Dashboard Widget for a quick glance).
Confirm & Collect: You contact the customer with the final price, update the booking status to “Confirmed” or “Paid”, collect payment offline, and easily export your data via CSV if needed.

Privacy Policy

Quote Calculation System uses WordPress’ native Custom Post Types to store quote requests.

When a customer submits a quote request, the following data is saved to the WordPress database:
* Customer Name
* Customer Email Address
* Customer Phone Number
* Pickup and Drop-off Locations
* Requested Duration (Days/Hours) and Estimated Price

This data is stored securely in the WordPress database and is only accessible to site administrators. No data is sent to external third-party servers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I charge by the day instead of the hour?

Yes! Version 2.0.3 introduces a Daily Rate option. You can set both an hourly and a daily rate for each vehicle. Customers can then select their duration in both Days and Hours on the frontend form. If no daily rate is set, the system smartly calculates 1 Day as 8 Hours based on your hourly rate.

What happened to the PayPal integration?

In version 2.0.0, direct PayPal integration was intentionally removed. This change was made to transition the plugin into a Quote Request System. By removing instant payments, administrators can manually verify the customer’s route, adjust the duration if necessary, confirm the exact final price, and collect payment via their preferred method without the risk of undercharging or dealing with complex API refunds.

Will my old shortcodes still work?

Yes! The plugin is fully backward compatible. The legacy shortcodes [quote-system], [quote-system-processing], and [quote-system-reservation] have been mapped to the new smart multi-step form. You only need to use [qcs_calculator] or [quote-system] on your page.

Will updating delete my old vehicles and locations?

Version 2.0.0 uses a modern Custom Post Type architecture instead of custom database tables. You will need to re-add your vehicles using the new “Vehicles” menu in your WordPress dashboard. Your old database tables will simply be ignored.

Do customers need to know the exact duration?

No. The form includes a helpful guide for typical durations. Customers provide an estimated duration (in Days and/or Hours) to generate a baseline price. As the admin, you review the request and confirm the exact final price with the customer before payment.
