Hi TastyIgniter Community, I am Emmanuel Katto.
I’m currently in the process of setting up a restaurant ordering system using TastyIgniter, and I need some help with configuring multi-location ordering and custom notifications. Here’s a detailed overview of my setup and the issues I’m encountering:
Current Setup:
Platform: TastyIgniter installed on a VPS server.
Locations: We have three restaurant locations, each with its own menu and delivery areas.
Ordering System: Customers should be able to choose a location based on their address and view the corresponding menu.
Objectives:
Multi-Location Ordering:
Automatically detect the customer's location and suggest the nearest restaurant.
Ensure that the correct menu is displayed based on the chosen location.
Separate order management for each location.
Custom Notifications:
Send order confirmation emails/SMS to customers.
Notify restaurant staff of new orders via email/SMS.
Customize notification templates to include specific information like order details, customer instructions, and delivery time estimates.
Challenges:
Location Detection: Struggling with setting up automatic location detection and ensuring the correct menu is displayed.
Order Routing: Need guidance on how to route orders to the correct restaurant location based on the customer's address.
Customizing Notifications: Having trouble customizing email and SMS notification templates to include all necessary information.
Can someone provide a step-by-step guide on how to customize email and SMS notification templates?
Also, Are there any recommended plugins or extensions that can enhance multi-location management and notifications?
Please let me know.
Thanks!
Emmanuel Katto
