Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

YPSupport Shift Scheduler is a WordPress plugin that collects shift requests from your staff and automatically builds the schedule. It’s a simple, fast scheduling tool for stores and facilities that are still managing shifts manually with spreadsheets or Google Forms.

Does this sound familiar?

  • Coordinating shifts takes longer as your team grows
  • You’re still copying and compiling shift requests by hand every week
  • You don’t want to keep paying monthly per-user fees for a dedicated SaaS tool
  • Giving every staff member a WordPress account feels like too much overhead

Key Features (Free)

  • Staff Management — Add, edit, and remove staff members
  • Shift Registration & Editing — Create, edit, and delete shifts
  • Calendar View — View the schedule in weekly or monthly calendar format
  • Shift Request & Approval Flow — Staff submit requests; managers review and approve
  • Account-Free Frontend Submission — Staff submit shift requests via a unique personal link — no login required. Each link is tied to one staff member, keeping submissions secure
  • Basic Auto-Scheduling — Automatically build a shift schedule from collected requests
  • Email Notifications — Send email notifications for shift-related events
  • CSV Import / Export (Shifts) — Import and export shift data in CSV format

Your Server. One-Time Payment.

YPSupport Shift Scheduler runs entirely on your own WordPress site. Staff data never leaves your server. No monthly fees, no per-user charges.

Shortcodes

Add any of these shortcodes to a page or post. Then set those pages under Shift Management > Page Links so the plugin can link to them from emails.

  • [ypss_request_form] — Shift request form for staff. Works without a WordPress login when opened via a staff member’s personal link. Optional attribute: title. Example: [ypss_request_form title="Submit your shifts"]
  • [ypss_my_requests] — Shows the logged-in staff member’s own request history. (No attributes.)
  • [ypss_schedule] — Displays the published (confirmed) schedule for staff to view. Optional attribute: title.
  • [ypss_week_schedule] — Compact one-week view of upcoming shifts. Optional attribute: title.
