Help: Please Any module or php script for car rental/hotel booking?

[Chuky]

I need a module for a car rental or hotel booking site.
Any thing with some kind of booking and registration system with calendar date is okay.

Can anyone point me to this kind of module? If there is none like that, please can anyone suggest a php script that does that which one can integrate into CMSMS?

Any help and pointers are highly appreciated. Thanks

I'm working on a proposal for another customer for a reservations application.

Perhaps if you described your needs I may be able to help you further.

Hi Calguy,

thanks for the reply. I was actually looking at something that works for a car rental reservation.

Basically, a three step reservation, with calender date option for user to choose date and time of reservation and date and time of end or return of car.

Also, if it has an option of picking, car type(eg. economy, business), how many passengers, etc.

Also could have a link to the cars that are currently available.(not very critical).

But a straight on reservation and booking system like this am sure could be adapted to other things like hotel search and booking, Boat cruise bookings, Air ticket reservation, etc.

Hope I was able to convey the needs?

Thanks

Hi,

I am looking for a booking system also.

The customer would need to be able to select "From" and "To" for the dates they wish to rent the car.
Then the system will tell them if the dates are available.
If available, then a simple booking form appears to collect their name, email, phone, the request is sent to paypal to request a deposit of $300. Once the transaction goes through, the file/database is updated with the booking

The admin would also require the ability to update the booking system. They might take a booking over the phone, so they would need some way of updating the system.

Calguy - I have a budget of $600 - $700 for this.

Chuky - Maybe you have a budget too so we could make it worth Calguy's time

I've just finalizing a proposal with another customer for a module that has most of those features (without the deposit stuff).... but it includes a reservation mechanism.  It also includes a calendar view (rooms/cars across the top, dates down the left), numerous admin views, custom fields, categories, etc.  and numerous frontend views.  It's not a simple project by any means.

I've just started working on an 'Availability' module.  it's a large project, but if you are interested, I can send you a copy of the spec.

drop me an email address.

Hello people,
I am the developer of the Reservation module released year and a half ago.

Yes I made a Rentacar module. It was requested by mobixrent client more than a year ago.
It has some improvements like availability calendar into the admin area. but anyway the client's budget was not big enough for module to looks customized. It is also prepared for cmsms mle version. The code is pretty adjusted to that site so i have to clear some things. Rentacar was my last module for cmsms because after that i moved to drupal.

Calguy is talking that he started big feature-rich reservation module. It's really hard job for this kind of module to handle different types for rent or subscriptions

Best Regards

Hello everyone, Have been indisposed for a while so havent been able to post.

@newclear

I know its your choice to reply emails but you totally ignored my emails(two times) and rage_all too.

You say rent a car was your last module for *CMSMS*, we cant see any such module in the repository.

Can you share this Rent a car module with us?


@paull

I need the module for prospecting. There is a proposal I put up for a prospective client that needs this module and once i can show this, the deal is done. So I dont know if I can commit money right now but am sure I will once its done.

[newclear]

Let's say like this.

I recieved few wish mails for the rentacar system but my mailbox is getting full of spam and i am not checking it everyday. There were 3 mails from different people for the last week. I was thinking to answer everyone of them and then i found this thread which is the source of your wishes.

I had in mind to release the module in the forge but i realized that I cannot support the module during its releases because I am a developer with a lot of tasks on my mind.

But I will released as it is now. I would only clean few multilingual parts from the code.

[Chuky]

Thanks newclear for this.

We appreciate it. We are looking forward to the release.

When do we expect to see?

Thanks a million once again

[newclear]

Hello again
I have to delay the release because I am moving to another house right now. I hope i can get some free time in this weekend to work over the module.

[Chuky]

Hello newclear, any hope or luck yet?

[newclear]
