Octolize Delivery Date Picker

Octolize Delivery Date Picker (formerly known as Flexible Delivery Date for WooCommerce) is an essential logistics and customer-experience extension designed to bring complete delivery scheduling control to online stores. The plugin allows merchants to add an interactive calendar and time slot picker directly to the WooCommerce checkout page. Store owners can configure strict business logic rules, including disabling weekends or national holidays, setting maximum orders per day, defining preparation times, and adding specific delivery fees for express or scheduled time windows. By giving customers the freedom to choose when they receive their purchases, it significantly reduces failed deliveries, improves customer satisfaction, and streamlines warehouse fulfillment planning.

Main Features

• Interactive checkout calendar — Display a sleek date picker directly on the WooCommerce checkout page with custom date formats and responsive styling.
• Time slot management — Offer specific delivery time windows (e.g., Morning 9AM–12PM, Afternoon 1PM–5PM) alongside selected delivery dates.
• Advanced working days & holiday configuration — Disable weekends, non-working days, or specific public holidays so orders cannot be scheduled when fulfillment is closed.
• Preparation time & lead-time buffers — Automatically calculate the minimum number of days required to prepare and dispatch an order before a delivery date can be selected.
• Order limit controls — Restrict the maximum number of orders per day or per time slot to prevent warehouse and delivery bottlenecks.
