Products in the menu can be set to hide or display in the app menu
A product in a menu can be set to either display or be hidden in the app menu by setting the 'Hidden' flag in the menu.
Hiding a Product
Step 1. From your back office, go to 'Chewzie Web Ordering', select 'Menus' under 'Menu', then click on the menu where the item is in.
Step 2. Click the category under 'Category Name' where the product is listed in, then select the product.
You can also quickly search for an item by hiding the 'Menu Categories', then typing in the product name.
Step 3. You can use either the tick box in the 'Hidden Column' or 'Item Details' when the item is selected. Then click 'Save Menu' to complete.
This hides the product from being displayed in the app menu.
IMPORTANT. If the same product is displayed in multiple categories in the menu, the product will STILL be displayed in those categories. Make sure to hide the item in all categories where it is listed by following the same steps above.
Unhiding a Product
1. To unhide a product in the menu, follow Steps 1 to 4 above, then uncheck the 'Hidden' flag against the product, then click on 'Save Menu'.
This unhides the product from the menu and will be displayed in the menu in the app. Similarly, you have to apply the same steps to all categories where the item is listed to unhide it in those categories as well.
If you cannot see the 'Hidden Column', you may need to enable it from the 'Columns Options'.
NOTE
- If a product is required only to be hidden at a certain time of day/day of the week, then a menu period should be configured for the product. This will save you time from manually hiding/unhiding the product.
Refer how to configure menu periods here: Set menu period - Alternatively, if the item is simply out of stock or unavailable, you can use the 'Item Availability' feature of your back office to manage the product.
You can follow the instructions here: Item Availability.
