>that the function is not more anymore
that is correct – it clearly says so in the changelog.

the reason why it’s removed is because too many people reported that customers selected “asap” outside of opening hours and then complained when the order did not arrive within 30 minutes or so (obviously, because the shop was closed)

so now – outside opening hours – people have to actively select an available timeslot.
during opening hours, the next available timeslot is automatically selected , or – optionally – you can also set it to force the customer to select a timeslot *during* your opening hours

that said, maybe there’s a way to bring back the “asap” at least during your actual opening hours, i’ll see what happens when i try to do something like that (though it will be somewhat different probably )

> But users coul not select a time outside of openung hours — so why is that a failure..?

they still cant. but – as outlined – they were able to select “asap” *outside* of the shops opening hours – after all that’s one of the reasons for using the plugin to start off with – and assumed (as people just don’t read things) it meant “in the next half an hour or so” – even if the shop was closed for the next 14 hours – or even days – or something, so then complained if they paid but didn’t get their stuff in 30 minutes or whatever.

now , they *have to actively* choose a timeslot so the ambiguity of “i said ‘asap’, but didnt know ‘asap’ means tomorrow when the shop is open again is eliminated…

in reality, “asap” means different things to whatever side of the table you are sitting at
for the customer, in many cases, it means “preferably now, but i can deal with it if it takes 1/2 hour or so”
for the shop it means, “i will do what i can, but if i’m closed i’ll do this asap when i’m open again” (naturally the shop cant do things when its shut)
