Configurazione

The Employees Filter widget can be used to filter the list of the employees by service, location, price and so on. This is very useful when trying to setup a portal of employees. This widget is available only for the PRO version.

This widget can be published in the front-end by visiting the Appearance > Widgets page, where you have to click the VikAppointments Employees Filter button and choose the position in which it will be placed.

Here's a list of settings that can be found under the widget configuration.
