π Location How to Create and Manage a Location
Locations are the heart of Hoppy Delivery Dates π
Each location represents one of your stores, warehouses, or pickup points β and carries its own time slots, prep time, blackout dates, and product overrides.
This means you can offer different delivery and pickup schedules per branch, all from one place β¨
In this guide, you'll learn how to:
- β Create a new location
- βοΈ Edit a location
- π’ Enable / Disable a location
- ποΈ Delete a location
π Before You Begin
- Hoppy Delivery Dates is installed and the app embed is enabled in your theme
- You know how many locations (branches / pickup points) you want to offer
- You have the address details handy for each location
βοΈ Step 1 β Open the Locations List
Open the Hoppy Delivery Dates app.
Then:
β Go to Settings β Select the Delivery & Pickup tab in the left menu
You'll see the Your Locations card β this is where all your locations live.
βΉοΈ The note under the heading says it all: "Manage your timeslots, prep time, blockouts, & overrides inside locations."
If you haven't created any locations yet, you'll see:
No locations found. Create one to get started.
β Step 2 β Create a New Location
β Click the Create location button at the top right of the Your Locations card.
A new location is added and the location editor opens automatically, ready for you to configure it.
What a new location starts with
Every new location comes with sensible defaults so you're never starting from a blank page:
- π Name: New Location (rename it right away)
- π’ Status: Active
- π Country: India
- π Both Local Delivery and Store Pickup (Takeaway) enabled
- β° Slot type: Date & Time Range
- ποΈ Default slots every day (MonβSun): 9:00β10:00 AM, 10:00β11:00 AM, 11:00 AMβ12:00 PM
- π Slots shown 5 days ahead to customers
- ποΈ Store Pickup set to Same as Local Delivery
π‘ These defaults are just a starting point β adjust everything to match how each branch actually operates.
βοΈ Step 3 β Edit a Location
Each location in the list shows:
- An Active (green) or Inactive (red) badge
- The location name
β Click Edit on any location to open its editor.
Inside the editor, settings are organized into tabs on the left:
- Location setup β status, name & address (see Location: How to Set Up Address and Availability Status)
- Fulfillment type β delivery/pickup methods, minimum order value & zip codes (see Location: How to Configure Fulfillment Type)
- Time slots & limits β slot types, per-day slots & order limits (see Location: How to Set Time Slots and Order Limits)
- Prep time & availability β cut off time, prep days & visibility window (see Location: How to Set Prep Time and Availability)
- Block dates & times β blackout slots (see Location: How to Block Specific Dates and Times)
- Product-based overrides β product-specific rules (see Location: How to Set Product-Based Overrides)
β Use the back arrow at the top left to return to the locations list at any time.
π’ Step 4 β Enable or Disable a Location
You don't need to open the editor to switch a location on or off.
β In the Your Locations list, click Disable (or Enable) next to the location.
The badge updates immediately to Active or Inactive.
β οΈ Customers will only see locations that are enabled. Disabling a location hides it from the date picker without deleting its settings β perfect for temporary closures.
ποΈ Step 5 β Delete a Location
To remove a location completely:
β Click Delete next to the location in the list β or β β Open the location and click the red Delete button at the top right of the editor.
β οΈ Deleting is permanent. If you only need to hide a location temporarily, use Disable instead.
πΎ Final Step β Save Your Changes
Changes to locations are not applied until you save.
β Click Save in the save bar at the top of the page (it appears whenever you have unsaved changes).
π Final Result
Once saved:
β Your locations appear in the Your Locations list with their Active/Inactive status β Enabled locations are shown to customers in the date picker β Each location runs on its own schedule, limits, and rules β You can edit, pause, or remove any location in a couple of clicks
