Wizehawk Weekly Menu Manager

Wizehawk Weekly Menu Manager helps small food businesses publish a changing menu without rebuilding the same products every week. Create menu items once, organize them into categories, build each weekly menu from the items you want to offer, and display the current menu anywhere on your site with the [wizehawk_weekly_menu] shortcode. If WooCommerce is active, Wizehawk Weekly Menu Manager can connect menu items to WooCommerce products so customers can add items to cart and use your normal WooCommerce checkout. The plugin can also be used for contact or in-person ordering. Free features

• Reusable menu items and categories.
• Weekly menus with start and end dates.

Optional Pro version A separately distributed Pro add-on is available outside WordPress.org. It requires the free Wizehawk Weekly Menu Manager plugin to remain installed and active. The Pro add-on adds an active and completed Pickup Schedule dashboard, Ready / Picked Up workflow, clean pickup-order cancellation, Production Summary, printable production sheets, custom pickup-slot lengths, minimum-notice controls, booking-window controls, and per-slot capacity limits. Pro code is not included in the WordPress.org plugin. The WordPress.org Free package does not include the Pro operational code.

2. Activate the plugin.
3. Open Weekly Menus > Dashboard.
4. Create your categories and menu items.
5. Create a weekly menu and choose the items to include.
6. Use the automatic menu page option or place [wizehawk_weekly_menu] on any page.
