Creating Your Menu

You can create and manage your dishes using the Menu Builder. That means you have to log into the Delivety App as a user who has been assigned the Menu Builder Dashboard.  Log into the Delivety App using the URL your-domain.delivety.com/app (replace your-domain with your Delivety domain name). Select the user who has the Menu Builder Dashboard assigned and enter that user's PIN code.

STEP 1. CREATE MENU SECTIONS

Once the Menu Builder opens click on the Add a menu section button and create all sections of your menu (Burgers, Salads, Sides, Beverages, etc. ).

STEP 2. CREATE A DISH

Under each section, you will see the default Add button. Click on it...

...and select Dish.

This will open a dish card in popup. In the dish card, you can edit the dish price (which is set at zero by default), its short and long description, and set the dish tags (spicy, vegan, gluten-free, top-rated, etc.). Also, you can upload the dish photo and edit its name.

Once you’re done with editing the dish details, click on the Save button.

In order to edit the dish later, click it (anywhere, beyond the dish name) and the dish card will open. In the dish card, you can edit the dish price (which is set at zero by default), its short and long description, and set the dish tags (spicy, vegan, gluten-free, top-rated, etc.). Also, you can upload the dish photo and edit its name.

You can click on the Eye icon (next to Domains icon) to view the dish recipe (you can edit  the dish recipe using the Recipe Editor Dashboard only).  Also, you can change the domain the dish belongs to (if you have multiple brands/domains) by clicking the Domains icon under the dish name (it looks like a 3D box).  

Once done editing the dish properties, click on the plus button next to any dish to create the next dish.

STEP 3. SET THE SECTION THUMBNAIL

Set the menu section's thumbnails by clicking on it and selecting one of the dish photos. 

If you are using our Food Ordering Website, the section thumbnail you have selected will show up as the ordering website menu section thumbnail.

STEP 4. ARRANGING SECTIONS AND DISHES IN YOUR MENU

The sections and dishes in your menu are sortable with the drag-and-drop function (click on the five-dot icon and hold to move the dish inside the menu section or even to another section). Once you rearrange the menu items in Menu Builder, they will appear that way on your website automatically if you are using our Food Ordering Website feature. 

STEP 5. ADD MODIFIERS

STEP 6. ADD DELIVERY RATES

You can also add delivery fees by clicking on the Add icon in any menu section. Delivery fees allow your operator to add the delivery fees to the order. You can skip adding the delivery rates if you don’t need them.

STEP 7. HIDE MENU ITEMS IF NEEDED

You can easily hide items from the menu by just dragging and dropping them to the left pane. Also, the hidden items will temporarily disappear from your website (if you are using the Delivety Ordering Website feature) until you unhide them. To unhide any menu item, simply drag and drop it back from the left pane to the appropriate menu section. You can also hide dishes by ticking the Hidden Item checkbox in the dish card. 

STEP 8. MANAGE THE MENU

You can easily manage your menu using the left pane:

Select the Domain to show the menu which belongs to that particular domain.

Filter what type of menu items to Show:

Select Dishes to show dishes only;

Select Modifiers to show modifiers only;

Select Delivery Rates to show the delivery rates only;

Select Not in Menu to show the items that not in the menu currently (hidden items, see Step 7);

Select In Stop List to show the items that are currently in the Stop List.

Sort the output alphabetically or by price with the Sort by option; 

Or search for the specific menu item using the Search bar.
