Dear Olly,

I have encountered an interesting problem that I couldn’t solve on my own. Since you are the one who programmed the WP-Pizza plugin, I believe you can solve it faster. That’s why I’m reaching out to you.

Problem: The shop is functioning well according to the standard opening times, and during closed hours, the message “We are currently closed. However, you can place a pre-order.” is displayed in the shopping cart. When customers place a pre-order, they can select a suitable date and time for it.

However, if the business is closed during specific hours within the day, for example:
Mon – Thu: from 11:15 to 13:30 and 17:00 to 22:30

In this case, we store the standard opening times as 11:15 and 22:30, and set the closed times as 13:30 and 17:00.

The shop doesn’t recognize the closed times between 13:30 and 17:00 and remains open for functions during that period.

How can I solve this problem?

Best regards,
