Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity.

Overview

About this plugin

Business Box is booking software for small businesses in Japan. This plugin puts your Business Box booking page on your WordPress site, so visitors can choose a time and book without leaving your page.

  • A block and a shortcode. Add the “Business Box Booking” block in the block editor, or use [business_box] in the classic editor and page builders.
  • Inline or popup. Show the booking calendar on the page, or a button that opens it in a popup.
  • Japanese and English. Follow the visitor’s language, or fix it to 日本語 or English.
  • Fits the page. The booking calendar grows to fit, with no inner scrollbar.
  • Paid bookings work. If your event type takes card payment, visitors are taken to Stripe’s secure payment page to pay.
  • Teams. One booking page can be shared by your whole team; each booking goes to whoever is free.

You need a Business Box account (there is a free plan with no time limit). Create your event types in Business Box, then paste the link to the booking page into the block.

Shortcode

jp/your-name/consultation"]

Options:

  • type="popup" shows a button instead of the calendar. The default is inline.
  • button="予約する" sets the button text.
  • lang="ja" or lang="en" fixes the language.
  • details="0" hides the event name, length and price.
  • title="Booking" sets the accessible title of the booking frame.

External services

K. in Tokyo, Japan. It is needed to show the booking calendar and take bookings.

  • What is loaded: when a visitor views a page that contains the block or the shortcode, their browser loads the booking page from https://app.marubox.jp/embed/… inside a frame (inline), or when they click the popup button. In the block editor, the block also shows a preview loaded from the same address. Nothing is loaded on pages without the block or shortcode, and the plugin itself sends no data from your WordPress site.
  • What is sent: the request for the booking page (as with any web page: the visitor’s IP address, browser details and the page language), and, if the visitor books, the details they enter in the booking form (such as name, email and answers to your questions). These go to Business Box, not to your WordPress site.
