Button plugin for info

How are the dishes being added in at this point? The problem is there’s a whoile heap of different ways of doing this, and each way will need something slightly different.

As an example, if you’re using a custom post type you can add to it, or extend it to include another meta box in the back end with the options, and then modify the template file to display these options on the front end. That’s only one way that it could be done.

There might be a way to do it already pre-built, but without knowing what your site is running we can’t suggest anything. If there’s nothing pre-built you’ll have to get your hands dirty in the code and start some programming for yourself.

Sorry catacaustic I forgot to write down my website, which is:
https://homecookingse24.co.uk/our-menu/
The page on giraffe website is what I want to do on my website page menu.
Thanks

As you’re using a commercial theme, we really can’t help as there’s no way for us to know how it works and how it’s setting up the dishes on your menu pages.

As I said, there’s a lot of different ways of doing this, and without knowing what your theme is uisng, it’s pretty hard to suggest anything that can work as it could work, it could not work, but it also might break your site horribly, and we don’t want that.

The theme I am using is Skirmish, I don’t know if it can help you.
Anyway, just a question: there is no plug in to do that?
Thanks again

there are lots of recipe, font-awesome capable widgets, but your theme hasn’t been updated in two years and as catacaustic stated, how you’ve built out each page/post/item matters greatly to pointing you at a widget

skirmish

that being said, is your “our-menu” a page or custom post type? are all items listed in this one page, or does it somehow pull in items from somewhere else?

it’s a page with all items listed on.

unfortunately that’ll be harder to drop a plugin onto

i would consider long term moving to a solution such as WP Restaurant Manager which appears to accomplish this type of task as well as provides other features.

The downside of this is that you’ll definitely have to rebuild your whole menu, i just can’t think of another way since allt he data is grouped as one item currently.

p.s. i’ve never used that plugin and cannot vouch for it in any way, especially with your older theme, so….

Take a Full Backup!!! before moving forward

But where does that page get teh information for each dish from?

Is this a list that you can edit on that page, or do you have a separate admin area for entering dishes, or is it being dragged in from somewhere else, or… ?

See, we need to know all of this before we can do anything to help. Each way has a very different way of doing things, and even then there’s most likely more than one way to do this for each way that I’ve mentioned above, so it’s not as easy as saying “is there a plugin” because there’s no way to know what that plugin actually has to do.

sorry catacaustic, not trying to make more work for you bud!

i think we’re thinking the same things here….

catacaustic, yes is that a list that I can edit on that page. When I built that page I just created a new page called menu and written all you can read

Don’t worry @bernbe01, I think we’re talking the same thing too.

@toto – If that’s how you do it, then a plugin won’t help at all. You’d have to create the icons that you want and add them manually to each dish. Using the system that you are now, there’s no easy way around that.

Ok guys I understud.
Thanks for your help anyway.
