The Menu Manager is your central hub for building and maintaining the digital menu your guests see when they scan your QR code. Navigate to /admin/menu to add new dishes and drinks, organise them into categories, set prices, flag dietary information, and toggle items in or out of availability — all without touching a line of code.

​
Stats Overview

At the top of the Menu Manager, four summary cards give you an at-a-glance snapshot of your current menu health.

​
Managing Categories

Categories let you group related items — for example Starters, Main Course, Cocktails, or Soft Drinks — so guests can browse your menu with ease.

​
Creating a Category

1

Open the category panel

Click the + Categories button on the Menu Manager page.
2

Fill in the category details

Complete the fields in the New Category modal:
3

Save the category

Click Create. The new category appears immediately in the category list and becomes available when adding menu items.

​
Editing a Category

Click the pencil icon next to any category to open the Edit Category modal. Update the name, description, or active status, then click Update to save your changes.

​
Deleting a Category

Click the trash icon next to a category to delete it.
The delete button is disabled if the category still contains menu items. Move or delete all items within a category before you can remove it.

​
Managing Menu Items

All your menu items are displayed in a table with the following columns:

​
Adding a Menu Item

1

Open the Add Item form

Click the + Add Item button at the top of the menu table.
2

Fill in the item details

Complete the form using the fields described below:
3

Save the item

Click Create. The item is added to the table and immediately reflects its availability status on the guest-facing menu.

​
Editing a Menu Item

Click the pencil icon in the Actions column for the item you want to change. The Edit Item modal opens with all existing values pre-filled. Make your changes and click Save Changes.

​
Deleting a Menu Item

Click the trash icon in the Actions column, then confirm the deletion in the prompt that appears.
Deleting a menu item is permanent and cannot be undone. Any guest who had the item in their cart will no longer be able to order it. Consider toggling Is Available off instead of deleting if you plan to bring the item back later.

​
Searching and Filtering

Use the search box at the top of the items table to filter items by name or description in real time. Use the category dropdown next to the search box to narrow the list down to a single category. You can combine both controls to quickly locate any item in a large menu.
Use the Is Popular toggle to highlight your best dishes on the guest menu. Popular items are surfaced prominently, making it easier for guests to discover your most-loved offerings without scrolling through the full list.
