Why Use Meet Hour and WP Booking Calendar?

Meet Hour offers branded, reliable video conferencing with options for embedding meetings directly into websites, making it an ideal choice for professionals and businesses wanting a custom, seamless experience. When combined with WP Booking Calendar, a popular plugin for scheduling appointments, clients can go from booking to meeting without needing separate links or apps.

Step-by-Step Guide: Embed Meet Hour Meetings with WP Booking Calendar

Here’s how to set up Meet Hour so that clients are automatically directed to your embedded meeting room after booking:

Step 1: Set Up Your Meet Hour Personal Meeting Room

Log in to Meet Hour and access your account settings.
Create a Personal Meeting Room if you don’t have one. This room has a static link that can be used repeatedly, making it perfect for consistent scheduling.
Copy the meeting room link, as you’ll use it in the next steps to embed the meeting room on your WordPress site.

Step 2: Embed the Meet Hour Room in WordPress

Next, you’ll embed the Meet Hour meeting room on a dedicated WordPress page:

Create a New Page on WordPress where your meeting room will be embedded.
Use the Custom HTML block (or a code block if using a page builder like Elementor) and insert the following code:

Html Copy code

<iframe src="YOUR_MEET_HOUR_ROOM_LINK" width="100%" height="600" allow="camera; microphone; fullscreen;"></iframe>

- Replace "YOUR_MEET_HOUR_ROOM_LINK" with the URL of your Meet Hour meeting room.
- Adjust the height and width if needed.
Publish the page and note the page URL—you’ll use this in the WP Booking Calendar settings to redirect clients after booking.

Step 3: Configure WP Booking Calendar to Redirect Clients to the Meet Hour Meeting Room

To ensure clients are redirected to your embedded Meet Hour room right after booking:

Open WP Booking Calendar settings in your WordPress dashboard.
Navigate to the Redirect Option after booking confirmation (found in the settings panel).
Paste the URL of the Meet Hour page you created in Step 2 as the redirect URL.
Save your settings to ensure all bookings now redirect to your embedded meeting room.

Step 4: Customize the Confirmation Email (Optional)

If you’d like clients to receive an email confirmation with the Meet Hour link as well:

In WP Booking Calendar, go to Email Templates.
Customize the template to include a message like, “Thank you for booking! You can join the meeting at the scheduled time here.”
Save your template.

Final Testing: Ensure the Integration Works Smoothly

Before going live, it’s essential to test your booking setup. Make a sample booking and ensure it redirects correctly to the embedded Meet Hour room on your WordPress site.
