Module Setup

Before all you have to install the Quick Reservation module by uploading the package mod_vikrestaurants_quickres (for your Joomla version) from the Extension Manager section in the administrator.

After the installation, it will be created automatically a new VikRestaurants Quick Reservation module, which you have to edit to change the settings, the status and the menu assignments.

The custom settings of the module are the followings:

• Module Class Suffix - it is used to place additional classes to the wrapper of the module, so that you can customize it. You should insert a "blank space" before the class name you want to use.
• Load jQuery - most of the times the pages where you want to publish your module already load jQuery framework, so this parameter must be disabled Otherwise a jQuery conflict could occur.
• Layout - this module has only one type of layout, so you can skip this setting, unless you want to create a different view for the module.

The configuration settings of the module are the followings:

• Session Lifetime - customers can store a reservation every X minutes. It is suggested to have this value higher than 0 to avoid SPAM attempts.
• Rooms Choosable - allow customer to select the room (only when possible). When this parameter is disabled, customers will be automatically assigned to the first available room. This step won't be displayed.
• Head Title - the main title of the module to place in the head.
• Head Sub-Title - the secondary title of the module to place in the head.
• Image URL - the URL of your logo image to display in the head of the module.
• Auto Redirect - auto redirect customers to the order page when the reservation is completed.
  
  
• Order Summary - a short text to display when the reservation is completed. Ignore this field if the "Auto Redirect" parameter is enabled.
