On a busy service, the first ingredient to run out is the one on your most popular item. If the board still shows it, you’ll keep turning customers away at the window.
Mark it sold out in seconds
In MenuScreen, every item has a Sold Out toggle in your WordPress dashboard. Turn it on from your phone and the display updates within seconds. The display page checks for menu changes automatically every 20 seconds.
Decide how sold-out items look
You can show sold-out items as marked, or switch on “hide sold-out items entirely” so they drop off the board until you turn them back on.
Keep every screen in sync
On Growth you can run up to 3 active displays, for example a TV at the window, one at the queue and a tablet inside. They all read the same menu, so one change updates every screen.
When the signal drops
Mobile data at events can be unreliable. If a screen’s internet drops for a while, the display keeps showing the last menu it loaded instead of going blank.
Quick checklist before service
- Open your display link on each screen (it’s on the Display & QR page).
- Check that today’s sold-out flags from yesterday have been cleared.
- Set your Today’s Special banner.
