Upload the `maca-restu` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress 3. Go to **maca Restu** in the admin menu to create categories and menus 4. Add the shortcode `[maca_menu_list]` to a page or use the **maca Restu** block Database tables are created automatically on activation. **Recommended:** Set your site timezone under **Settings General** so scheduling uses the correct local time. Use HTTPS for **WordPress Address** and **Site Address** when serving PDF menus. ## FAQ ### How do I show menus on a page? Add `[maca_menu_list]` to any page or post, or insert the **maca Restu** block in the block editor. ### How does scheduling work? Each menu can have a start/end date, selected weekdays, and optional daily start/ end times. On the website, visitors can browse published menus; a yellow notice can show serving hours when a menu is outside its live window. The QR menu page only lists categories and menus that are live right now. ### What is the QR menu URL? After activation, guests can open `/qrmeny/` on your site (slug can be changed in** maca Restu Settings**). Generate and print QR codes under **maca Restu QR Codes**. ### Does the plugin work with HTTPS? Yes. PDF URLs are normalized to HTTPS when your site uses SSL, and PDF.js is bundled in the plugin. ### How do I uninstall completely? Deactivate and delete the plugin from **Plugins**. `uninstall.php` removes database tables and plugin options. ### Is there a Pro version? Yes. [maca Restu Pro](https://maca.se/restu-pro/) is a separate plugin with online menus, table ordering, booking, Stripe payments, statistics, and more. The free plugin includes PDF/image menus, scheduling, and QR codes — see the comparison table in the Description section.
