Full Menu Shortcode doesn’t display prices properly

    Hi! Congrats for developing this awesome tool 🙂

    I’m working on a pizza delivery website.
    Pizzas usually have two sizes and a different price for each size. I’ve inserted the full menu Shortcode inside a page, but it displays only the ‘cheapest’ price with the word “from” before the price.

    For example:
    Pizza Margherita ––––––– from € 6,90

    And i need to display with the right way:
    Pizza Margherita ––––––– Medium € 6,90 –– Large € 9,80

    Clients don’t need a price estimation, they need to know the exact price you are going to charge when they are ordering –for example– by phone…

    Any ideas to solve this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,

    The reason why we don’t show the pricing for all the sizes within the static menu published via the wordpress plugin is due to the fact that the static menu is trying to emulate the ordering widget experience.

    In the ordering widget, the food client will see the lowest price first. When the client selects an item to view it, they have taken the decision to be ok with spending that amount.

    Now when other sizes are being shown they are not reminded of the total spend but that it’s only a little bit more on what they were committed on spending anyway.

    As a static menu is not interactive, we can only notify the food client that there are multiple prices using the phrase ‘FROM’.

    All of this is done so that the food client will go to the online ordering widget to place their order which is why we recommend publishing the widget on the static menu page as well for easy access.

    So all the designs of our system were implemented in such a way to encourage online ordering and not phone ordering which can take more time for the restaurant staff in comparison to accepting the order in our app which takes a couple of seconds.

    However, if the static menu provided by the plugin does not offer sufficient information for you, then the alternative would simply be to create an additional page on your website for your menu and add the menu items there yourself in the format that you consider appropriate.
