Do not allow a customer to book the same hours multiple times

[radar155]

I'm using version 1.5.0-dev.4

A service with more than 1 attendants can be booked by the same customer multiple times (at the same day and time).

When I say "the same customer ", I mean a customer that's using the same email address in different booking attempts.

I guess this shoud be prevented.

Hello!

This is an interesting topic as customers might need to book for multiple people that accompany them.

But in general it makes more sense that they do this with a different name and email address.

For that I just added a new check that will not allow them to book, if they have booked already.

Hello!

This is interesting but fact is that same customer reserve for own self and also for others with own name and email. In my opinion this can be an option check for Admin to allow or not to allow multiple reservation by same email !

Hello!

That is true indeed, but they should use different input for this.

You can disable customer matching by making email an optional field (starting from 1.5)

Hello!

What you think, to show Warning message to customer that This time already reserved for you, do you want to continue to reserve for somebody else (with condition YES / NO) ?

Hello!

That might help a little bit, but still I find this is more like an edge case.

I mean for the most part, customers know they have a booking already.
