 * Hello,
 * My client wants to us to create a beer database and have a printable beer list
   on the page from said database.
 * Request from client…
 * “We have a beer database (our previous website had migrated all our beer database
   from the previous website database). We enter the Brewery, Beer Name, Beer Style,
   ABV, Serving Size (10oz / 14oz / or 16oz) , and Price into the database.
    On 
   the Pages – Beer List – We select the beers from the database for our beer list
   and adjust their order. Once updated, we can print this list. It was pre-formated
   to print two copies on an 8-½ x 11 sheet of paper and saved to our desktop or
   printable from the website.
 * Also, Menu Database – same as the beer database – We have a huge database of 
   specials / menu items with descriptions and pricing that we pull from for the
   menu page. We don’t have to type them in new every time.”
 * Any help or guidance would be appreciated. Been spinning my wheels for some time
   now.

 * Fun.
    re: printing, pick ones of these or try them all out to see which one suits
   best : [https://tinyurl.com/ycldrwrs](https://tinyurl.com/ycldrwrs)
 * re: the “beer database”.
    Usually I would want to know more functional requirements,
   especially re: scale and future expectations. Especially re: being able to order/
   purchase beer online. However :
 * You could use Advanced Custom Fields :
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/)
   Create a content type for the user to enter in the beer details, and you could
   use Categories to Auto-Populate the price. This way, when “Premium” beer increases
   in price, you are only updating one variable.
 * When a client says the word “database”, what I go-to would be a robust search
   engine. The database is simply **structured data**. You want to be able to extract
   products by price, or beer type, or country, or size, or lager / ale, or by colour,
   etc, etc. As long as you use a structured approach to capturing the data, the
   output does not matter. But you could :
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/relevanssi/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/relevanssi/)
   or [https://facetwp.com/](https://facetwp.com/) or [https://ajaxsearchpro.com/](https://ajaxsearchpro.com/)
 * If you find out that you need to add a purchasing component, then that is a different
   conversation.
 * Also, would be good to know their internal process and technical approach re:
   inventory, beer descriptions, etc. Are we duplicating the work that is already
   being done internally???
