What is the concept of guest bookings?

[Somebodyisnobody]

I have big problems setting up anonymous bookings.
I can reserve times as a guest for resources marked as “public” via the booking monitor. However, this is only possible for the current day and not for days beyond.
I can see the bookings via the endpoint “http://localhost/Web/view-schedule.php”, but the page reloads when I click on a timeslot. I cannot access the page “http://localhost/Web/schedule.php” as a guest. As a registered user, however, I can make reservations here.

I cannot find any documentation on the concept of bookings by anonymous users (guest bookings). Can someone please explain the concept to me?

A little background:
I am looking for a booking system for vehicles for an emergency response organization. No account should be necessary for the booking, the instance would be made accessible via a private link. Only occupied times should be visible to anonymous users. The resources are therefore vehicles that can be booked at any time over a period of days. Ideally, the booking should be confirmed if this is possible with the tool. Ideally, additional information can be submitted with the request.

You might need to do something like:

$conf['settings']['privacy']['public.future.days'] = 10;

More info:

app/config/config.devel.php

Line 64 in d4c006b

$conf['settings']['privacy']['public.future.days'] = '1'; // How many days in the future unauthenticated users can see/make reservations

Okay one step forward: I can select one of multiple days in the future.

But if i click on "Reserve" i get only the curent day (monitor view):

But I've found out that i need to klick on the resource (green marked) instead on a specific slot (purple/red marked) in the public schedule overview:

Okay i found out that a guest reservation creates account for the guest. If i want to make an anonymous reservation again I have to log in with credentials provided via email. I didn't see this before as i wasn't watching the mails

Can the acocunt creation be disabled or is this part of the root concept to be able to manage the bookings?

Also did you enable:

app/config/config.devel.php

Line 63 in d4c006b

$conf['settings']['privacy']['allow.guest.reservations'] = 'false'; // if reservations can be made by users without a LibreBooking account, if true this overrides schedule and resource visibility

$conf['settings']['privacy']['allow.guest.reservations'] = 'true';         // if reservations can be made by users without a LibreBooking account, if true this overrides schedule and resource visibility

[Somebodyisnobody]

Yes this is set. I also enabled $conf['settings']['tablet.view']['allow.guest.reservations'] to be sure :)
