Appointment modal start/end time initially set to slotDuration rather than service duration

Hi Alex,

Yes I think that would make sense - if the user single clicks a specific time slot then use the selected start time + service duration to calculate end time of the appointment. A click and drag is perhaps a more intentional action and implies the person making the booking has a specific appointment duration in mind.

Keep up the great work and congrats on the 10 year milestone !

An example here from the public demo @ 1.4.3. Clicking on the calendar slot (where the default slot is 15mins) means the start/end duration is initially set to 15mins even though the service is 30mins

Hello!

That is correct, the calendar widget will try to set start/end values based on what was selected in the calendar.

In some cases that makes sense as it will save the user from typing in that manually.

In other cases (like yours) that would be a problem, cause you would not care about the calendar selection but on the selected service.

I guess a compromise will make it so that if the user clicks and not click and drag in the calendar, the default times will be selected
