A self-hosted WordPress plugin for bar advocate programs. Admins assign duty days and open the review window; attorneys accept or decline their assignments; admins close the window and email the finalized schedule to each court as a PDF.
Three connected post types — Courts, Attorneys, Duty Days — plus the templates, PDF exports, and role-based permissions that make a real duty roster work.
Register every court on your circuit and every advocate in your program, linked by BBO number so members see their own assignments the moment they log in.
Admins build the schedule, open the review window, and close it when every assignment has been resolved. One toggle, one source of truth.
While the review window is open, attorneys see an Awaiting Acceptance section on their personal calendar and accept or decline each assignment. Statuses flow through from Open and Waiting to Accepted or Declined.
Generate a landscape-A4 PDF of any court’s schedule and email it straight to the clerk — the standard handoff, in two clicks. Bundled TCPDF engine, no third-party service.
Custom Attorney and Staff Attorney roles, with granular capabilities on courts and duty-day posts. Built on WordPress roles, not bolted on.
Auto-send a templated welcome email when a new advocate registers — subject, from name, logo, and HTML body all editable in the settings page.
Duty Day Calendar comes from nearly a decade of building duty-day systems for bar-advocate programs. If your program has courts, a duty roster, and advocates who need to accept or decline the dates they’ve been assigned — it fits.
