This module looks very promising. It doesn't take too long to set up and just works, I have just tested it.
However, it's very American-centric, in that the available hours presented to the user are in the format "03:30 PM CEST", which doesn't make much sense to most Europeans, except perhaps the English speaking islands.
Also, I am not sure if the text presented in the little pop-up window, shown when a user performing a booking, is translatable through Drupal, or if it is sent from the service web site?
As it is now the module is not ready for an European audience, but if the time format issues were fixed, and the interface was translatable, it's a neat little solution, if you are looking for a booking solution which is set up fairly quickly.

xenophyle commentedHi ressa, since the internationalization you are talking about would be handled by the 3rd-party software this module integrates with, contacting TimeTrade directly would be the best way to request this functionality:
http://support.timetrade.com/
Setting status to postponed, since it is a valid request, but I am not able to do most of the work required. Will look into what can be done on the module side.

ressaHi xenophyle, I did contact Timetrade directly, and their answer was that it is not possible right now to translate the interface, nor the time format, but that they will notify me if this becomes available in the future.
As I see it, adding the rest of the world (those not using the AM / PM time system) as potential customers would be great for their bottom line, but that's just me :-)
But you're right, the time issue setting and translation is to be done on their part of the booking system, Drupal is merely the messenger, so postponing is probably right, until they give us the option of setting format and translating the interface.

dedisoft commentedReally great module except for translation...
It's a very bad idea to not support internationalization (with drupal i18n module for example).
This limits usage and customers.

xenophyle commentedAre you talking about the time formats and the text within the lightbox when you click the "Click to Schedule" button? Or are you talking about using t() for strings in the module, or something else?
