FAQ
-
Do I need a Bukio account?
-
Yes. You need a free account at bukio.hu to set up your restaurant and get your slug.
-
Is the widget free?
-
The WordPress plugin is free. Bukio offers both free and paid plans for restaurants.
-
Can I use multiple widgets on one page?
-
Yes. Each shortcode creates an independent widget instance. You can even use different slugs for different restaurants.
-
Does it work with page builders?
-
Yes. The shortcode works with Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Gutenberg, and any builder that supports shortcodes.
-
What data is sent to Bukio?
-
Only the booking details: guest name, email, phone, party size, date, time, and special requests. The plugin itself does not track visitors, set cookies, or run analytics. If the restaurant has configured analytics or marketing integrations in their Bukio account, those may run inside the widget according to the restaurant’s own configuration and privacy policy.
-
Can I customize the colors?
-
Yes. Choose from 21 built-in themes in Settings Bukio, or override per shortcode with the
themeattribute.
