Course structure
We have structured this course in 7 lessons that will guide you step by step to build your restaurant management web app with Wildcloud.
Lesson 1 – Creating the necessary Wildcloud applications for your platform.
Lesson 2 – List of WordPress plugins to build your restaurant management app.
Lesson 3 – Creating tenant roles and deploying version updates.
Lessons 4 and 5 – Building a global frontend dashboard for your restaurant management platform.
Instead of having your clients use the normal wp-admin dashboard to add dishes, manage orders, view sales reports, etc., you can build your own custom user interface.
Your users will be able to manage their restaurant operations from a custom frontend dashboard. With this dashboard, they will be able to:
- Create and manage dishes or menu items
- Set up various payment gateways to process order payments
- Organize dishes into categories and attributes
- Create and manage variable menu items and their variations
- Design and apply discount coupons
- View and manage customer orders
- Handle customer and user profiles
- Configure store settings
- Adjust site settings
- Access and update their account details
This platform provides users everything they need to efficiently manage their restaurant’s online presence.
Here you can see some restaurant dashboard templates.
Lesson 6 – Building prebuilt websites to sell as site templates.
You will learn how to create prebuilt sites, allowing your customers to skip the time-consuming design process. When customers purchase a membership plan on your platform, these prebuilt sites will be automatically cloned to their new sites, providing them with a ready-to-use, professional-looking website:
Lesson 7 – Configure the storefront site to automate subscription sales, customer registration, and the creation of new sites/tenants.
Lesson 8 – Test the platform to make sure everything is in place.
