How to apply minimum reservation time?

[m8internet]

I ran into an issue with allowing users to submit new reservations, but eventually found the answer
Pretty much had a doh moment!

I am now need to implement the minimum reservation time so that it increases the end time to match the Start time plus the minimum reservation length

Does the approach in the post that you linked to work?

No, I followed the instructions but like everyone else in that thread the minimum reservation time was not applied

Is this purely on the UI?

What is the UI and where do I find it?

[Nick]

Sorry. What I'm asking is do you only need the end time drop down to be adjusted when you are creating a new reservation?

[m8internet]

I eventually realised UI, meant User Interface
Yes, it is when a customer is submitting a new reservation

As an example
Resource 1
Minimum Reservation Time = 2 hours

Resource 6
Minimum Reservation Time = 7 hours

I haven't tested this, but give it a try.

Change line 677 of templates/reserve.template.php to:

Code:

if ( ($res->get_end() + $rs['minres'] == $i) ) {

Change line 677 of templates/reserve.template.php to:

Line 677 is currently :

Code:

            echo '<td class="formNames" width="50%"><div id="div_start_date" style="float:left;width:86px;">' . Time::formatDate($start_date, '', false) . '</div>' . Time::formatTime($res->get_start()) . "</td>\n"

Are you sure you have the correct line?
Alternatively, can you post what the line would originall look like

It would have been this:

Code:

if ( ($res->get_end() == $i) ) {

[m8internet]

No, that doesn't work
Adding that code results in Error 500

Hmm, how about this:

Code:

if ( (($res->get_end() + $rs['minres']) == $i) ) {
