    Hello, I would like to know if there is any snippet, module or plugin that one can use for a reservation system.

    Something that can work for online reservation for rooms, car rental reservations.

    Is there any way one can achieve this?

    Does anyone know of any third-party script that can integrate with modx with this feature?

    Thanks .

        I have not seen anything ready made along these lines for MODx. I did work o a site (pre modx) that had hotel car etc reservation system but it was tied into a major network that the hotel paid high fees to part of. I would look for a hotel specific CMS that might have the built in hooks to integrate such a system, but than again it all depends on the depth.

          Something is happening here, but you don't know what it is.

          Reservation systems aren’t as trivial as you probably believe. Most systems just cater for one particular type of reservations: hotels, cinemas/theatres, cars. But not all of them in one huge application.
          You would have to define what features you expect from such a system, before someone jumps in with advice on how to build something like this in MODx.

          Try to look in the repository if you find something: http://modxcms.com/repository.html

          If not, there’s plenty of such scripts out there: http://www.hotscripts.com/

          Hello ganeshXL,

          I dont believe anything is trivial otherwise I would have created it myself grin

          On having a specific features of the system, I just felt that any system that can power any form of reservations, be it car rental or hotel rooms, can work one for the other.
          What would be needed would be to just change some parameters like room description could become Car descriptions and price per night could become price per day for car rental and vice versa.

          I know its not as easy as it sounds but I am sure there are some great developers here that can do this.

          The features dont have to be too many. Just a reservation system.

          Thanks

            Thanks dev_cw for replying.

            It would be great if you look into such a system.

            Like I said it would just be a basic reservation for starters.

            Thanks for replying my post
