Plugin customizations

The following section details what can be changed in the plugin and what effect it will have on the ordering system.

Light theme and dark theme

The Light theme has a white background and dark text, while the Dark theme has a dark background and white text.

Space above the basket

The number entered in this field represents the number of pixels the Basket is moved down by so that the header or navigation does not overlap the Basket.

Initial ordering system screen

The initial ordering system screen is changed to display the menu first. Once a user clicks on an item the ordering system reverts to the page which asks for delivery or collection.

Display page header and footer on mobile

This option enables the header and footer on the mobile version. By default, the header and footer are not displayed on the mobile version to reduce conflicts that interfere with the ordering system. If this is enabled and the ordering system is not functioning correctly please try disabling it.
