Choose order of menu items?

Hi @theunionmanors,

Can you share what exactly you meant by the display of menu items within a category?

Do you want to re-order the category items?

Thanks anyway, but I’ve moved on. Your product couldn’t handle the type of variations I have to deal with and there were various other annoying problems.

I was able to find the shortcode for ordering the items within a category, but the category sort shortcodes didn’t work. I gave up.

Thanks anyway.

Hi @theunionmanors,

Thanks for shairng the issues you had with our plugin we will definitely try to resolve them but can you share the exact issues you had so that we can improve the plugin and offer a better user experience?

Also, can you share the type of variations you have so that we can make our system flexible enough to work with the type of variations you have?

Also, I would like to share that we have another plugin that needs WooCommerce to work.

You can try that if you want.

I just happened to take notes and saved that file…

formatting tags didn’t work in item descriptions, all runs together in one line

category sort doesn’t work, tried various permutations of the shortcode, the items would sort in the categories but couldn’t get the categories to sort correctly
[fooditems category=”tapas,appetizers,pasta,entree,prix-fixe-menu,desserts,happy-hour”]
[fooditems cat_orderby=”39,42,43″ fooditem_orderby=”date”]
[fooditems category_menu=”tapas” fooditem_orderby=”date”]
[fooditems category_menu=”appetizers” fooditem_orderby=”date”]
[fooditems cat_orderby=”date” fooditem_orderby=”date”]
[fooditems cat_orderby=”tapas,appetizers,pasta” fooditem_orderby=”date”]
[fooditems category=”tapas,appetizers,pasta” fooditem_orderby=”date”]
[fooditems cat_orderby=”39,42,43″ fooditem_orderby=”date”]
[fooditems fooditem_orderby=”date” category=”tapas,appetizers,pasta,entree,prix-fixe-menu,desserts,happy-hour”]

add button crowded to left in appetizers category but not in other categories
Rooted around in the css and couldn’t figure that out

.rpress_fooditem.rpress-grid .rpress_fooditem_buy_button {
display: inline-block;
float: right;
}

.rpress_fooditem.rpress-grid .rpress_fooditem_buy_button {
display: inline-block;
line-height: 0;
float: right;
}`

I’m trying food store but also having sort issues there, so maybe I’ll try your woo product.

Thanks!

Hi @theunionmanors,

We are removing HTML tags from the default description which is displayed on the food items list as it creates layout errors based on the formatting you choose to have. The correct formatting would be displayed on the popup.

Regarding the cat_orderby, I think it’s having some conflict with the latest release we have as we have added the option to sort the categories directly from the backend using drag and drop from the categories menu on the backend.

Regarding the button, we can provide a fix if we see what’s the exact problem there.

Looking at the wowrestro demo – why don’t you let the product description wrap in the order page list? The popout is nice… I don’t see any use of woo product variations in any of the items I viewed. Are there any that you can point me to? The add ons allow multiple choice and that doesn’t work for my menu.

Hi @theunionmanors,

Not sure what you meant by

Why don’t you let the product description wrap in the order page list?

Regarding the variations, it’s not added to the demo. But it works, I am sharing a n image to show how it works.

The add-ons can be configured to allow single and multiple items. You can edit the addon and change it.

Hi @theunionmanors,

Let us know if you need any further help here?
