I had a license activation issue, and it was resolved quickly and professionally. They even followed up to ensure everything was working, including the QR Code license. Highly recommend this plugin not just for the features, but also for the quality of service behind it.

same-bus return is enabled * Added “Departure Bus” and “Return Bus” tabs in search results on single bus page * Return bus tab shows the same bus for the return trip with same-day time filtering * Previously return functionality was only available on the global search page **Admin – New Bus List Design** * Introduced modern responsive admin screen for bus fleet with grid/table views * New “New Bus List Design” setting (Enable/Disable) in General settings * Stat cards showing Total / Published / AC Coach / Non AC Coach counts * Card grid and table views with bus details, featured image, author and status * Edit, Trash, Restore and Delete actions with nonce protection * Trash management within the same styled layout * Live search by title and coach number with client- side pagination * Grid/list toggle persisted across sessions **Admin – Bus List UX Upgrades** * Table view now shows bus featured image thumbnail in Name column * Name column shows route details (start/end points with stop count)* Journey date info: schedule range for Repeated mode, first date + count for Particular mode * Return route displayed when same-bus return is enabled with “Return” tag * Action buttons converted to icon buttons (view/edit/trash) with accessible labels **Admin – Return Timetable Warning** * Added highlighted warning box in return route settings reminding to rearrange return timetable * Auto-generated reverse stops keep outbound clock times and need adjusting before saving **Frontend – Sold-Out Date Picker** * Journey and return date pickers now show sold-out dates as unselectable * Sold-out dates marked with red “Sold Out” style and legend * Works for both single bus and general search date pickers **Frontend – View Button** * Added “View on frontend” action in bus list to open bus permalink in new tab * Shown alongside Edit/Delete on card hover and in table view **Bug Fixes** * Fixed return-bus Details/Stops/Features popup not opening after outbound selection * Fixed duplicate ID issue causing popup to target wrong container* Fixed “Seal Plan” typo to “Seat Plan” in classic bus list column **Admin – Documents Tab** * Replaced video-only tutorials with searchable documentation system * New “Documents” tab with 24 sub-tabs organized by bus settings * 10 Free Plugin docs and 12 PRO Addon docs with visual distinction * Shortcode reference table updated with PRO shortcodes #### 5.9.0 _Release Date – 22 Jul 2026_ **Ticket Sale Cut-off (New)** * Automatically stop selling tickets a set time before each departure, so you have time to plan routes and get every shuttle out on schedule* Two cut-off styles: a fixed number of hours before departure (e.g. sales close 12 hours before), or a specific clock time on a day before departure (e.g. 10:00 PM the night before) * Enforced everywhere — closed trips are hidden from search results and blocked at checkout across WooCommerce, direct booking and admin counter sales* New “Ticket Sale Cut-off” control under General Settings Booking behavior; disabled by default so existing sites are unaffected * The settings screen reveals only the fields relevant to the cut-off style you pick **Bus Stop Rename — No More Broken Routes** * Renaming a Bus Stop (for example, adding a gate number to the name) no longer breaks its route or fare configuration— the stop no longer has to be rebuilt from scratch * The old name is migrated automatically to the new one across every bus’s route stops, fare table and existing bookings * Prevents a rename from silently reopening already-booked seats, avoiding accidental double-booking **Booking List** * New “Booked by” badge marks counter / admin-created bookings with the staff member’s name, so they’re easy to tell apart from customers’ own checkouts **Double-Decker Cabins (New)** * Cabins and coaches can now be double-decker — each cabin gets its own optional Upper Deck alongside its Lower Deck, perfect for double-decker buses and train carriages * Build each deck independently with the full seat editor (seat templates, drag-and-drop doors/toilets/driver, rotation and add/remove rows) in both the classic and modern bus editors * Set a different price for each deck — separate Lower Deck and Upper Deck price multipliers per cabin, so an upper-deck seat can cost more (or less) than a lower-deck one * On the booking page, passengers switch between Lower Deck and Upper Deck with a simple tab inside the cabin and pick seats on either deck * Upper- and lower-deck seats are tracked separately end-to-end, so the same seat number on each deck never clashes for availability, holds, cart or orders * The chosen deck is shown everywhere the seat appears — Booking List, Passenger List, PDF tickets, thermal tickets, email, admin counter orders, the booking calendar and CSV exports (e.g. “Coach A – Upper Deck – 3”) * Fully backward compatible — existing single-deck cabins and all past bookings are unchanged; a cabin only becomes double-decker when you turn its Upper Deck on **Seat Editor Improvements** * “Without Seat Plan” can no longer be selected while Multiple Cabin/Coach mode is on (cabins require a seat plan) — the option is clearly disabled instead of silently reverting * Drag-and-drop now works immediately on freshly added seat rows in the cabin and deck editors * Admin and booking-page assets are versioned by file change time, so editor and seat-plan updates are never served from a stale browser cache **Documents (New)** * New “Documents” submenu — a complete, searchable in-admin handbook for the plugin, so you no longer have to leave WordPress to look something up * Every screen is documented with screenshots: bus list, bus types, bus stops, pickup & drop-off points, features, coupons, terms, booking calendar, the 4-step bus editor, the frontend booking flow, checkout, booking list and sales report * A complete Settings Reference lists every Global Settings field with its purpose, type and default value — nothing is left undocumented * Live search across the whole handbook jumps straight to the field or screen you are looking for * When the PRO addon is active, its screens and settings appear inline alongside the free ones; without PRO they are clearly marked so you can see what an upgrade adds * Getting Started, shortcode reference, video tutorials and troubleshooting are all gathered in the same place **System Status Moved into Settings** * The separate “Status” menu item is gone— the system report now lives as a “Status” tab inside Global Settings, keeping the Bus menu shorter * Greatly expanded report with modern cards: WordPress environment, server and hosting details, database, PHP version and configuration limits, required PHP extensions, and active plugin/theme information * An at-a-glance health summary highlights anything that needs attention before you contact support * New “Copy report” button copies the whole environment report to your clipboard in one click, ready to paste into a support ticket * Add-on requirement checks (such as the PDF library) are preserved and continue to appear in the report **Settings Screen Improvements** * Settings tabs can now be linked to directly — any link to a specific tab (for example from a notice or an add-on) opens that tab instead of whichever tab you last viewed * The settings sidebar no longer covers the admin bar’s notifications dropdown * The Save button is automatically hidden on informational tabs such as Status, where there is nothing to save * Settings styles are versioned by file change time so updates are never served from a stale browser cache **Double-Decker Cabin Fixes** * Fixed the Upper Deck and Lower Deck of the same cabin sharing a single seat price override — each deck now keeps its own per-seat prices, so an upper-deck seat can be priced independently of the lower-deck seat with the same number * Seat prices you have already saved are preserved and continue to apply to the Lower Deck exactly as before; only the Upper Deck needs its prices entered * The Booking Calendar no longer shows the internal seat reference (such as “cabin_0_dd_A1”) — it now displays the seat number with the deck shown as a small“ Upper Deck” tag, and the cabin name on its own line **Passenger Form Fields in Booking List Exports (Fix)** * Custom fields you add to the Passenger Form — for example “Emergency Contact Name” and “Emergency Contact Phone” — are now included automatically in both the Booking List CSV and PDF exports, with no setup needed * Restores the custom-field export that was available in the Passenger List before it was merged into the Booking List, so passenger manifests are complete again * Fields use the exact labels and order you configured on the bus, and the built-in passenger fields (name, email, phone, address, gender) are exported alongside your own * Filtering the Booking List by a bus exports just that bus’s form fields instead of every field used across the site * Answers collected before a field was renamed or removed from the form still appear in exports, so nothing already gathered is ever lost * In the PDF, passenger details print as a compact line beneath each booking, so the table stays readable no matter how many custom fields your form has * The booking detail screen now labels each passenger field with your form label instead of its internal field name **One Export Button, With Rules (New)** * The separate “Export CSV” and “Export PDF” buttons are now a single **Export** button that opens a dialog — pick the format and exactly what to export, in one place * Three formats: CSV spreadsheet, printable PDF manifest, and Thermal (POS) tickets — one receipt per booking on a 58/80mm roll, so a whole departure can be printed in one run * Six ways to choose the rows: the current filtered view, only the bookings you ticked, today’s bookings (day-end sales sheet), today’s departures (driver’s manifest), a date range, or every booking * A date range can mean travel dates or booking dates — pick which, so “everything sold last week” and “everyone travelling next week” are both one click * Any scope can be narrowed further by bus and by status, giving bus-wise, route-wise and status- wise exports without touching the filter bar * Formats that are unavailable on your site (no PDF library, or Thermal tickets switched off) are shown greyed out with the reason, instead of failing after you click * Thermal printing is capped at 200 tickets per run and tells you when a selection is too large, so a mis-click can never spool thousands of receipts **PDF Export Redesign** * Export PDF now produces proper **Booking Confirmation tickets** — one printable card per booking, on its own page: company header with the bus image and a status badge, perforated tear lines, the full trip, customer and passenger details, an itemised price summary, your terms, and a thank-you footer* It is the very same card a passenger gets from “Download Ticket (PDF)”, so what you hand over the counter and what you print in bulk are identical documents * Passenger form answers (including your custom fields) get their own “Passenger Information” section on the card, separate from the billing customer * Fixed the currency symbol printing as an empty box for several currencies — most visibly the Bangladeshi Taka( ৳) — in the PDF ticket and the Thermal (POS) ticket * Fixed Thermal (POS) tickets printing a long blank stretch of paper after each receipt; every ticket is now sized to its own content, and a multi-ticket run prints one receipt per page * Fixed a passenger field appearing twice in exports when the same question existed under two field ids (after a form field was renamed) #### 5.9.1 _Release Date – 30 Jul 2026_ **Search Form Location Autocomplete (Fix)** * Fixed typing in the “From” and “To” fields of the search form no longer filtering the location list — the list stayed complete, so long route lists had to be scrolled through by hand * Typing now narrows the list instantly again: a few letters such as “man” bring up “Mangalia”, and “ las” brings up “Las Vegas” * Matching works anywhere in the name, not only at the start, so “vegas” also finds “Las Vegas” * Accents and letter case are ignored while searching — “brasov” matches “Brașov” — so nothing has to be typed exactly as it is spelled * A short “No matching location found” note is shown when nothing matches, instead of an empty panel * Clicking the field again clears the search and brings back the full list, with the currently selected stop still ticked * Applies to both the standard and Flix-style search forms, and to the search bar on the results page ## Meta * Version **5.9.1** * Last
