The following Product Update is only relevant to teams using Root Categories.
​
We have updated the Category Creation & Fragmenting Tool, and with that we are also updating how menus are created more generally.

Now all Restaurants will only have 1 Version of a menu in Woflow - that means all menus (ie, Lunch, Dinner, Desserts) will sit within that 1 Version.

Create Root Categories for each menu (ie, Lunch, Brunch, etc). These will be hinted at by a tag (if any) set up by the Menu Sourcer:

  1. To create a Root Category, set up a Category, without a Fragment. Based upon the tag created by the Menu Sourcer.

  2. Click the arrow to then create the first Category, within that Root Category. Add fragments as normal.

  3. Any further created Categories will be created outside the Root Category, and so can be dragged into the Root Category. Take note that these will need to be reordered correctly.

Here's an explainer GIF:

All Categories are re-orderable and you'll see which Root Category (menu) they are under:

Fragments will be named Root Category > Category:

Categories will appear under Root Categories on the Review page:

Thanks and let us know if you have any problems or questions!
