Erstellen eines Burger-Restaurant-Bestellsystems mit WooCommerce und FooSales POS

Burgers are personal. Extra bacon, no onions, Swiss instead of cheddar, and—if you give your customers a choice, most will say yes to fries and a drink if you make it easy. Our integration with the WooCommerce Product Add-Ons plugin makes this level of personalization effortless for both online and in-person orders. 

How Does a Burger Restaurant Ordering System Work with FooSales and WooCommerce?

The ordering system enables customers to place orders online or in-person. Using WordPress, WooCommerce, and FooSales, it includes:

• Online Schaufenster: Customers browse an online menu of products, add burgers to a cart, and customize toppings (e.g., extra cheese, no onions) using the WooCommerce Produkt-Erweiterungen extension. The system tracks items and calculates costs.
• Benutzerkonto oder Gast-Kasse: Customers create an account to save order history and preferences or use guest checkout for convenience.
• Delivery or Pickup Selection: Customers choose delivery to an address or in-store pickup.
• Zahlungsabwicklung: Sichere Zahlungsgateways verarbeiten Kredit-/Debitkarten, digitale Geldbörsen (z. B. PayPal) oder Nachnahme.
• Bestätigung der Bestellung: After payment, customers receive an email or notification with order details and estimated pickup/delivery time.
• Auftragsverwaltung: Orders are sent to the restaurant’s WooCommerce back-end, and are also loaded in FooSales for staff to process.
• Auftragsabwicklung: Kitchen staff prepare orders, and delivery drivers are assigned for delivery orders.
• Auftragsverfolgung: Customers can track order status (e.g., preparing, ready, or out for delivery) in real-time.
• Lieferung oder Abholung: Orders are delivered to the specified address or picked up at the restaurant.
• Auftragshistorie und Kontoverwaltung: Customers access past orders and manage account settings.
• Analytik und Berichterstattung: The system provides data for inventory management, sales tracking, and service improvements.

Setting Up Your Burger Restaurant Ordering System

Dieser Leitfaden verwendet WordPress, WooCommerce, FooSalesund die WooCommerce Produkt-Erweiterungen extension to create a cost-effective ordering system. WooCommerce, a WordPress e-commerce platform, handles online orders, while FooSales integrates in-person and online orders via a POS system. The WooCommerce Product Add-Ons extension enables customizable burger toppings. Here’s how to set it up:

1. Erste Schritte mit WordPress und WooCommerce

Wenn Sie neu bei WordPress oder WooCommerce sind, folgen Sie dieser Anleitung Leitfaden to set up your site in a few easy steps. Once your site is ready, proceed to the next section.

2. Produkte erstellen

Each menu item, such as a cheeseburger or fries, is added as a WooCommerce product. To organize your menu, create product categories:

• Gehe zu Products > Categories in the WordPress dashboard
• Klicken Sie auf Neu hinzufügen to create categories like “Burgers,” “Sides,” and “Drinks.”

Next, add products:

• Navigieren Sie zu Products > Add New in the WooCommerce admin dashboard.
• Enter the Titel (e.g., “Classic Cheeseburger”), Lange Beschreibung (e.g., burger details), Produktdaten (e.g., price), Short Description, Product Categoriesund Produktbild.
• Klicken Sie auf veröffentlichen. to add the product. Repeat for all menu items.

3. Configure WooCommerce Product Add-ons

To enable customizable burger toppings, install the WooCommerce Produkt Add-Ons Erweiterung (compatible with the FooSales web version). This allows customers to personalize their burgers.

Erstellen einer Globale Add-ons set for your burger toppings and assign it to the Burgers product category. That way, the same topping options (e.g., extra cheese, jalapeños, bacon) automatically appear on every burger product without you having to configure each one. It’s the fastest way to keep your menu consistent and update prices or choices in one place.

If a specific burger needs unique options, add a Pro-Produkt-Add-ons group on that product. Use it to add or refine choices just for that item—for example, an “Exclude toppings for this burger” checkbox list to remove ingredients that come standard on that build. Global and per-product add-ons work together, so you get broad coverage across the category plus fine-grained control where you need it.

WooCommerce Product Add-Ons supports importing and exporting global add-ons via JSON files. This is particularly useful for testing or replicating add-on configurations across stores. Below are two sample JSON file that you can use to setup standard burger toppings and modify for your store:

"price_type": "flat_fee", "visibility": 1 } ] } ]

4. Enable Pickup and Delivery Options

Allow customers to choose pickup or delivery at checkout using WooCommerce shipping methods:

• In the WordPress dashboard, go to WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping und klicken Sie Versandzone hinzufügen.
• Enter a Zone Name (e.g., “Local Area”) and specify your restaurant’s region.
• hinzufügen Lokale Abholung as a shipping method for in-store collection.
• For delivery, select Kostenloser Versand oder Pauschalpreis (e.g., rename Flat Rate to “Local Delivery” and set a $5 fee).

5. Configure Custom Order Statuses

Track order progress with custom statuses using a free custom order status plugin (e.g Ni WooCommerce Custom Order Status plugin). Install it and create statuses like:

• Aktiv: Order is being prepared in the kitchen.
• Bereit: Order is ready for pickup or delivery.
• Vollständig: Order is fulfilled, and no further action is needed.
• Navigieren Sie zu Order Status > Add New to set these up.

6. Set Up Automated Customer Emails and SMS (optional)

Next, you can send automated updates to your customers when the order status is changed, using the AutomateWoo-Plugin extension. This can be used to let them know the order is ready for pickup, or out for delivery.

When an order status is changed, you can configure AutomateWoo to send an email to the customer. You can set up various emails that are triggered by different order statuses and you can also apply additional rules so that emails are only sent when certain conditions are met.

Im Folgenden finden Sie einige Beispiele für die Arten der Automatisierung, die Sie mithilfe von Auslösern und Regeln implementieren können:

Bestellung wird vorbereitet E-Mail

When an order comes in, the kitchen marks it Aktiv to show preparation has started in your ordering system. Configure AutomateWoo to email the customer on that status change, confirming the kitchen is working on their order. This sets expectations and keeps them informed of progress.

Bestellung bereit zur Abholung E-Mail

Send this email only for Local Pickup orders. In AutomateWoo, add a Rule where Order → Shipping Method = Lokale Abholung so the workflow triggers only in those cases.

Bestellung ist auf dem Weg E-Mail

Dankeschön-E-Mail

After the order is marked Complete, send a thank-you email with a coupon code to drive repeat sales.

Zeitplan/Planung

In all of the above examples, you can leave the Timing Einstellung auf Sofort ausführen es sei denn, Sie möchten eine leichte Verzögerung einführen, die Ihnen Zeit gibt, eine versandte E-Mail abzubrechen, wenn der Bestellstatus fälschlicherweise geändert wurde.

Aktionen

Für jede E-Mail müssen Sie eine E-Mail oder SMS text message.

• In your workflow, open Actions → Add action.
• Choose E-Mail senden (oder Send SMS if you use SMS).
• Satz An zu {{ customer.email }} so it goes to the buyer.
• Fill in the Thema und E-Mail-Inhalt (use merge tags as needed).
• Speichern Sie the action.

If sending SMS instead, pick Send SMS and configure the recipient/message per your SMS setup.

Hier ist ein Beispiel:

Das spart mit der Zeit unzählige Stunden und minimiert das Fehlerrisiko. Sie können auch konfigurieren AutomateWoo zum Versenden von SMS mit Twilio was eine weitere großartige Eigenschaft dieses Restaurant-Bestellsystem.

6. Set Up FooSales POS

FooSales will work without any custom configuration, however you will need to configure what order statuses FooSales should load. Open FooSales → Settings → Orders and add your custom statuses under Zu ladende Auftragsstati so they appear in the POS apps. Set the Status der Auftragsübermittlung to define what status is applied at checkout, and choose which statuses count as Incomplete order statuses.

Sie können dann auch FooSales so einstellen, dass es Folgendes anzeigt Auftragswarnungen basierend auf dem Auftragsstatus oder der Versandmethode, die mit einem Auftrag verbunden sind. Auftragswarnungen stellen sicher, dass das Personal in der Küche oder im Verkaufsraum auf neue Aufträge aufmerksam gemacht wird und diese dank Ihres Systems unverzüglich bearbeiten kann.
