.pottranslation file. All admin and frontend strings use WordPress’s standard internationalization functions.- Can I sell class subscriptions and memberships with this plugin?
The free Gym Builder plugin includes pricing plan post types and a pricing table shortcode. To accept actual payments, install our free GB Stripe Payments add-on, which handles Stripe Checkout with monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, yearly, and one-time billing options.
- Does it support private 1-on-1 personal training bookings?
Yes — with our GB Personal Session add-on. The base plugin handles group classes; the add-on adds 1-on-1 session bookings with calendar-based slot management, Stripe payments, and auto reminders.

your-theme/gym-builder/<template-file>.php— Gym Builder follows the WooCommerce-style template-override pattern.- Is the plugin GDPR-compliant?
