This article explains how to use Amelia, a WordPress plugin that allows you to create a homepage with a reservation system.
In the major update in December 2025, the UI of the admin screen changed significantly in versions 9.x and later. We will explain the new version!

This time, we will explain how to set up Amelia's events.

Amelia's Event Settings

First, let's explain how to set up Amelia.
After activating the plugin, Amelia-related settings will be added to the left sidebar.
From there, open [Events].

Amelia event added

First, add an event from Amelia > Events.

Amelia > Events > Details

Event Title

• image
• event name
• color

Event Date and Time

• Event start date
• Event end date
• Start time
• End time

You can also set multiple dates by adding a date.

Reservation start date and time

If you check "Start reservations now," reservations will begin immediately upon registration.
If unchecked, reservations can start from a specific date.

• Opens on - Reservation start date
• red_event_booking_opens_at - Booking start time

Event reservation deadline

If you check the box for Reservations to close at the same time as the event starts, reservations will close at the start of the event. If you want to close reservations on a specific date, uncheck the box.

• Opens on - Reservation deadline
• Closes at - Reservation deadline

Location Settings

Add the event location to Custom address.
Also, add a detailed description of the event to the description.

Events > Pricing

Set the price for the event.

If the event capacity is two or more people

This setting item will be added.

A setting that allows one person to make multiple reservations

Checking Allow multiple bookings per customer will allow one customer to book the same event multiple times.

Allow multiple people to book

Checking Allow additional people will allow you to make reservations for multiple people.

When making a reservation, you will need to set the number of people you wish to reserve and then proceed with the reservation.

Limited to one reservation

If you check Limit additional people, you can limit the number of people who can make reservations at one time, as you have set it up so that multiple people can make reservations at the same time with Allow additional people.

Display total number of people in reservation

By checking Multiply price by number of people, you can display the total price for the number of people making a reservation at one time.

The total amount will be displayed based on the number of people in the reservation.

If unchecked, individual amounts will be displayed.

Event booking deadline

By checking Close event when minimum capacity is reached, you can limit the event reservation deadline based on the number of people who can make reservations.

• Minimum number of attendees - Limited by the number of participants
• Minimum number of bookings - Limit by number of bookings
