Pre-release Documentation for Ascent Direct Booking. Not yet approved for commercial release. View availability details
Ascent-hosted access
A completed Ascent-hosted signup, purchase, domain, or handover was not available. No signup, trial, price, backup promise, or service-level agreement is shown.
Hosting means where the booking application runs. A link means how a visitor reaches the booking page. Ascent hosting is not a WordPress-free engine. The captured application is the Ascent Booking plugin on WordPress.
| Item | Owner | Ascent | Not established |
|---|---|---|---|
| Business name, support email, phone, currency, timezone, services, people, and hours | The owner supplies and later saves these in Booking owner. | Not required for the owner to prepare the list. | Preparing the list does not create a hosted site. |
| Installing the plugin | On a WordPress site the owner controls, the owner follows the WordPress install steps. | A hosted handover would have to include the access method. | No hosted handover was captured. |
| Who the first owner is | The WordPress administrator designates that person once. | Ascent would need a real handover before it could be said to have done this. | The password is not shown on the designate form, and inbox delivery was not proved. |
| After access exists | The owner uses the shared setup steps, then copies Open booking page for the website button. | Ascent does not configure the menu in this guide. | Custom domains, billing, backups, and uptime promises were not established. |
Until a hosted handover is actually shown, use the WordPress installation and the owner setup.
