PlugTide Digital Menu for Restaurants

FAQ

Does it support prices?

Yes. Each product has an optional price plus an optional second price, each with its own label (for example “Full portion” / “Half portion” or “Glass” / “Bottle”). Leave an amount empty to hide it. The currency symbol and its position are set under Digital Menu → Settings.

Can I hide prices for the whole menu?

Yes, with the “Show prices” toggle in Settings.

Which allergens are included?

The 14 allergend required by EU Regulation 1169/2011. They cannot be added to or
removed (they are a legal requirement); only their emoji can be changed. For
anything else diners might want to avoid — pork, alcohol, spicy — use the Diets
screen, which is fully editable.

Is the data removed when I uninstall?

Yes. Uninstalling the plugin drops its tables and options. Deactivating does not.

Can I import my dishes from a spreadsheet?

Yes. Digital Menu → Import / Export has a downloadable CSV template with example
rows. Fill it in (only name and category are required), then upload it: you
pick whether to add new dishes only, add and update, or replace everything, and
you see a preview — how many rows are new, updated, skipped or in error, plus any
allergen spelling that was corrected — before anything is written. Missing
categories and sub-categories can be created automatically. The Export button
gives you the same CSV of your current products for backups or bulk edits.

How do I customise the design with my own CSS?

Use your theme’s own Additional CSS (Appearance → Customize → Additional CSS,
or the Styles panel in the Site Editor). Everything is inside #dmenu-root.dmenu. The quickest way is to override the CSS
variables (indent a block by four spaces to make it a code block):

dmenu-root.dmenu {

–dmenu-primary: #c0392b; /* prices, active filters, rules /
–dmenu-primary-contrast: #ffffff; / text on the primary colour /
–dmenu-menu-bg: #fbfbfb; / page background /
–dmenu-card-bg: #ffffff; / product card background /
–dmenu-text: #1a1a1a;
–dmenu-muted: #6b6b6b; / descriptions, secondary text /
–dmenu-line: rgba(0,0,0,.12); / borders / separators /
–dmenu-hero-bg: #1c1c1c;
–dmenu-hero-text: #ffffff;
–dmenu-font-heading: “Georgia”, serif;
–dmenu-font-body: system-ui, sans-serif;
–dmenu-radius: 10px; / card / control corner radius /
–dmenu-card-border: 1px solid var(–dmenu-line);
–dmenu-card-shadow: 0 4px 14px rgba(0,0,0,.07);
}
.dmenu-hero { background-image: url(“https://example.com/menu-bg.jpg”); } / logo / image */

Useful classes: .dmenu-hero__title, .dmenu-toolbar, .dmenu-tag,
.dmenu-tag.is-active, .dmenu-category__title, .dmenu-subcategory__title,
.dmenu-product, .dmenu-product.is-featured, .dmenu-product__name,
.dmenu-product__price, .dmenu-product__desc, .dmenu-product__markers,
.dmenu-footnote. The root also carries a layout class:
.dmenu–layout-grid / -two-col / -list / -centered.

Colours, backgrounds and borders are locked to the theme you pick — on purpose,
so the menu never mixes with your active WordPress theme’s own button, heading
or link colours. Changing the CSS variables above always works. If you target a
class directly instead (e.g. .dmenu-tag { background: #000; }), add !important.
