How to use Amelia Booking plugin with Bricks

How To
1

I used to work with Elementor and Amelia. That worked really well.
Now I work with bricks and I am not able to use [ameliastepbooking.]
I work with bricks 2.2
If I create a shortcode and place this in it, bricks locks itself
[ameliastepbooking trigger=ameliapopup trigger_type=class in_dialog=1]
class name: ameliapopup

This will not work either. All help appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Why not try to use Bricks’s native popup feature and not Amelia’s? Still use the shortcode for the form only, but don’t add the extra trigger.

The solution is: Deactivate: Plugin WP-Optimize.
If this plug-in is activated, Amelia Popup does not work at all, and blocks Bricks completely.

Matej from Bricks found the solution.
After placing the shortcode element with the text below on section level in the footer.

shortcode [ameliastepbooking trigger=ameliapopup trigger_type=class in_dialog=1]

You can open the Ameliastepbooking bij placing in the classname of the button the name

ameliapopup.

In summary:

  • Disable Wp-Optimize
  • Shortcode in footer on section level with the text see above.
  • Button has the class name: ameliapopup

After this the ameliastepbooking form shows, just a it works in elementor.

Just press the button and ameliastepbooking show.

Hi Shanto, may I ask you, how your overall experience has been using Amelia with Bricks?

You don’t have native Bricks elements, right? and work only with shortcodes, have you experienced any limitations with styling, layout control, popups, or responsiveness or something else?

I’m currently evaluating Amelia for a project and would really appreciate your feedback.

I’ve worked with professional Scheduling software as well, and this sounds like it may be a compatibility issue between Bricks 2.2 and Amelia’s shortcode/popup trigger rather than the booking setup itself. I’d first test the shortcode in a basic HTML/Shortcode element and avoid adding the popup class directly to the Bricks element. Also check whether Amelia has an updated integration method specifically for Bricks.
