Dreamfox Delivery Date & Timeslot for WooCommerce

Let customers pick a delivery date and timeslot at checkout

Dreamfox Delivery Date & Timeslot for WooCommerce lets customers pick exactly when their order should arrive. Add a date and timeslot picker to checkout, define working days, lead times, holidays and category-based rules — all free — and stop guessing when orders need to ship.

Built for bakeries, florists, food, fresh produce and any local delivery store where timing matters. A premium add-on layers on automation — per-product and per-location rules, surcharges, reminder emails and self-service rescheduling — for stores that outgrow the basics.

What problem does it solve?

Without a delivery date picker, stores either over-promise on shipping windows, get hit with failed deliveries, or rely on email back-and-forth to confirm slots. That hurts margins and customer trust. A proper scheduling system fixes it at checkout.

Key features

  • Date and timeslot picker on both the classic and WooCommerce Block Checkout
  • Working days, holidays, blackout dates and per-weekday blocking — free for every store
  • Minimum lead time, optionally counting only working days
  • Category-based delivery rules with per-category lead-time overrides
  • Configurable timeslot duration and per-slot order capacity limits
  • Custom checkout label, description, required-field and auto-fill behaviour
  • Delivery date and timeslot shown on orders, emails, invoices and the thank-you page
  • HPOS compatible, nonce-protected AJAX and full WPML support
  • Premium: per-product and per-pickup-location delivery rules
  • Premium: rush/weekend surcharges, reminder emails, self-service rescheduling and an admin delivery calendar

How it works

1. Install and activate the plugin. 2. Configure your working days, holidays, lead time and timeslot duration in the settings. 3. Optionally add category-based rules for products that need different delivery windows. 4. Customers pick a date and timeslot at checkout; the selection is stored on the order and shown on emails and invoices.

Use cases

Use this plugin when you want to:

  • Florists scheduling same-day or future bouquet delivery
  • Bakeries limiting cake orders per day and per timeslot
