   • Fixed: The Seasonal Pricing, Discount Over X Days and Min & Max Booking Day addons were saved in the editor but ignored, or priced inconsistently, on the booking forms themselves (Resort, Multiple Items and Multi Day). Resort room pricing wasn’t reading seasonal rates at all; a Resort booking with…
   • Updated the bundled Appneck SDK to the latest version.
   • Fixed: Buffer Time After was ignored on Single Day rentals with hourly time slots (“Manage inventory as timely”). A new booking could start the moment the previous one ended. The item now stays unavailable for the buffer after every booking, and a new booking must also end at least that long before…
   • Security: Quantities posted from the booking forms must now be whole numbers. Negative, fractional or malformed quantities are refused instead of pricing a booking at zero or at a fraction of its value.
   • New: Same day booking cutoff time (Settings > General). Once it passes, today can no longer be booked and the earliest pickup is tomorrow. Past dates, today when same day booking is off, and today after the cutoff are now also refused at add to cart, in the cart and at checkout, not only in the dat…
   • New: Optional per-item fixed security deposit multiplied by booked quantity. The rental form and checkout use the selected room, item, or rental count; existing fixed and percentage deposits retain their behavior.
   • New: Seasonal weekly and monthly rates for multi-day items (with the Seasonal Pricing addon). Each billed week or month uses the rate of the season it starts in; previously a season had no effect on bookings billed by the week or month. A season without these rates keeps using the item’s regular we…
   • New: “Charge base price per variation unit” for multi-day items with item variations. When on, the rental price is charged once per variation unit chosen, so three bikes in different sizes are billed as three bikes. It is off by default, so existing items keep their prices. The booking summary now…
   • Improved: On items that have a Quantity selector, the selector now sets the quantity, and the size or color steppers must add up to it before Book Now is enabled.
   • Fixed: Items with more than one variation group (for example Color and Size) shared one quantity between the groups, and on items without a Quantity selector the booked quantity stayed at 1.
   • Fixed: Variation groups saved without a label were dropped. They are now kept with the label “Item Variation”.
   • Fixed: Single Day rental options without timely inventory or variations: the stock set for each option on the Pricing tab is now enforced at add to cart, including other cart items for the same date.
   • Fixed: Multiple Items bookings could be billed at the wrong rate when the duration passed more than one hourly, daily, weekly or monthly threshold.
   • Improved: Saving an item now blocks an hourly price without the time picker, which had no effect on the booking form, and requires a Rent Item Stock Quantity when a Single Day item shares one stock count based on booking time.
   • Improved: Redesigned Order Received page, date picker popup, duration summary and FAQ section (with Load More after five questions).
   • Improved: Modern editor: redesigned Pricing, Item Variations, Extra Services and Off Day settings, and the Frontend Preview now includes location and security deposit charges and greys out off days on multi-day dates.
   • Fixed: Modern editor: a duplicate stock quantity field could appear for items with old hourly inventory settings, and the day-wise extra service summary did not show the multiplied total.
   • Improved: Updated demo, documentation and addon links.

6. Booking and Rental Manager for Bike 2.8.0

   Sep 25, 2026
   • New: SecureHold WP integration (highlight of this release). A fixed WpRently security deposit can now be held on the customer’s card as a separate Stripe authorization hold through SecureHold WP 3.4.11 or later, instead of being charged with the booking. The customer pays only the rental; the hold…
   • New: Settings > Integrations runs every SecureHold setup step in place, without leaving the page: installing or activating WooCommerce, SecureHold and the official Stripe gateway, switching bookings to the WooCommerce checkout, enabling SecureHold’s MagePeople compatibility, and turning off SecureH…
   • New: When SecureHold holds a deposit on the customer’s card, the booking form, cart and checkout say so and no longer add it to the total. Deposits that are charged instead show “included in your total”. For carts with rentals this replaces SecureHold’s own checkout notice. The Bookings page shows…
   • Fixed: A deposit SecureHold took over but could not hold (Standalone checkout, or Stripe not connected yet) was dropped from the charge. It is now charged as before.
   • Fixed: Resort bookings charged the security deposit twice at WooCommerce checkout, once inside the room price and again as the Security Deposit fee.
   • Fixed: The Security Deposit shown on an order line could differ from the amount charged (for example $34.80 for a $35.09 fee), because it was recalculated from rounded-down prices.
   • Improved: The rent list grid and list layouts now show per-duration prices for Dress, Equipment and Others items too, and the “from” price uses the item’s own listing duration first.
   • Improved: The “Any duration” variation price field is only shown when the item has no duration options or already has a flat price saved.
   • Fixed: A fatal error at WooCommerce checkout, most often with the block checkout and taxes enabled, when fees were saved to the order.
   • Fixed: Tax Status and Tax Class set in the modern editor were not applied at checkout, because they were not copied to the rental item’s linked WooCommerce product.
   • Fixed: Rental items whose tax settings had never been changed stopped being taxed after the next save, so orders showed Tax $0.00. An item with no tax status set now uses the WooCommerce default (taxable), and the tax shown in the booking summary is the tax charged at checkout. Items affected by th…
   • Fixed: On sites using WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS), a booking’s order total was read as empty. It is now read through the WooCommerce order API.
   • Fixed: Multi-day bookings with both daily and hourly rates cost $0 when pickup and return were on the same date without times. A date-only same-day booking is now billed as one day; same-day bookings with times are still priced by the hour.
   • Fixed: Single-day rentals with item variations charged and reserved only one unit. When the per-size steppers replace the Quantity selector, booking two items was priced as one and the other units stayed available. The quantity now follows the steppers, and each size is still checked against its ow…
   • Fixed: The day-long price switch could save the opposite of what was shown. It now saves the selected state in both the classic and modern editors.
   • Fixed: The resort pricing table in the editor could load values from the wrong item and did not line up as a table.
   • Fixed: The fee price overflowed past the right edge of the Fee Management card on narrow single-day, multi-day and multiple-items booking forms, and the resort fee section was misaligned.
   • Fixed: The image slider showed a “+0” tile over the last image when a gallery had exactly four images.
   • Fixed: A PHP 8.1 deprecation notice on the rental items list page.
