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.

Setting Up Your Burger Restaurant Ordering System
Niniejszy przewodnik wykorzystuje WordPress, WooCommerce, FooSalesi Dodatki do produktów WooCommerce 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. Pierwsze kroki z WordPress i WooCommerce
Jeśli jesteś nowym użytkownikiem WordPress lub WooCommerce, wykonaj następujące czynności przewodnik to set up your site in a few easy steps. Once your site is ready, proceed to the next section.
2. Tworzenie produktów
Each menu item, such as a cheeseburger or fries, is added as a WooCommerce product. To organize your menu, create product categories:
- Przejdź do Products > Categories in the WordPress dashboard
- Click Dodaj nowy to create categories like “Burgers,” “Sides,” and “Drinks.”
Next, add products:
- Przejdź do Products > Add New in the WooCommerce admin dashboard.
- Enter the Tytuł (e.g., “Classic Cheeseburger”), Długi opis (e.g., burger details), Dane produktu (e.g., price), Short Description, Product Categoriesoraz Obraz produktu.
- Click Publikować to add the product. Repeat for all menu items.
3. Configure WooCommerce Product Add-ons
To enable customizable burger toppings, install the Rozszerzenie dodatków do produktu WooCommerce (compatible with the FooSales web version). This allows customers to personalize their burgers.
Utwórz Globalne dodatki 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 Dodatki na produkt 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:

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:
- Aktywny: Order is being prepared in the kitchen.
- Gotowy: Order is ready for pickup or delivery.
- Kompletny: Order is fulfilled, and no further action is needed.
- Przejdź do 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 Wtyczka AutomateWoo 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 wyśle wiadomość e-mail do klienta. Możesz skonfigurować różne wiadomości e-mail, które są wyzwalane przez różne statusy zamówień, a także możesz zastosować dodatkowe reguły, aby wiadomości e-mail były wysyłane tylko wtedy, gdy spełnione są określone warunki.
- Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
- Przejdź do AutomateWoo → Workflows → Add New.
- Enter a tytuł for the workflow.
- W Wyzwalacz, choose Zmiany statusu zamówienia.

- Shipping method jest Odbiór lokalny
Oto kilka przykładów rodzajów automatyzacji, które można wdrożyć za pomocą wyzwalaczy i reguł:
Przygotowywane zamówienie e-mail
When an order comes in, the kitchen marks it Aktywny 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.
Wiadomość e-mail z zamówieniem gotowym do odbioru
Send this email only for Local Pickup orders. In AutomateWoo, add a Rule where Zamówienie → Shipping Method = Odbiór lokalny so the workflow triggers only in those cases.
Zamówienie jest już w drodze
Send this email only for delivery orders. In AutomateWoo, add a Zasada: Order → Shipping Method jest Stawka zryczałtowana LUB Darmowa wysyłka (i.e., “is any of: Flat Rate, Free Shipping”).
E-mail z podziękowaniem
After the order is marked Complete, send a thank-you email with a coupon code to drive repeat sales.
Harmonogram
In all of the above examples, you can leave the Czas ustawienie na Uruchom natychmiast Chyba że chcesz zastosować niewielkie opóźnienie, które da Ci czas na anulowanie wysłania wiadomości e-mail, jeśli status zamówienia został nieprawidłowo zmieniony.
Działania
Dla każdej wiadomości e-mail należy skonfigurować atrybut e-mail lub SMS text message.
- In your workflow, open Actions → Add action.
- Wybierz Wyślij e-mail (or Send SMS if you use SMS).
- Zestaw Do do
{{ customer.email }}so it goes to the buyer. - Fill in the Przedmiot oraz Treść wiadomości e-mail (use merge tags as needed).
- Zapisz the action.
If sending SMS instead, pick Send SMS and configure the recipient/message per your SMS setup.
Oto przykład:
Z czasem pozwoli to zaoszczędzić niezliczone godziny i zminimalizować ryzyko błędu. Można również skonfigurować AutomateWoo do wysyłania wiadomości SMS przy użyciu Twilio co jest kolejną wspaniałą cechą tego system zamawiania w restauracji.
6. Set Up FooSales POS
With online ordering setup, you are now ready to install FooSales so that you can receive orders in-store, manage prep and fulfilment, and take in-person payments. To get started, install the Wtyczka FooSales i aktywować 7-dniowy bezpłatny okres próbny lub zakupić Plan FooSales Plus.
