Featured items and promo cards

Featured slots let you highlight specific dishes or images on your menu. They appear as a visual carousel or grid above your regular sections, and they're a great way to showcase signature items, seasonal specials, or chef's picks.

Featured slots are template-dependent. If your template supports them, you'll find the Featured Slots section in Menu Settings (right sidebar).

Each featured slot can reference a menu item or contain a standalone image:

• Item reference: Link a slot to an existing menu item. The slot automatically uses the item's name, price, and photo.
• Standalone image: Upload a custom image (e.g., a lifestyle photo, a seasonal promotion graphic) with an optional caption.

To add or manage featured slots, use the Featured Slots editor in your Menu Settings panel. The number of available slots and their layout (row or grid) is defined by your template.

A promo card is a dedicated callout block that appears within your menu layout. It's great for happy hour deals, prix fixe specials, or seasonal promotions.

If your template supports promo cards, you'll see a Promo Card block in the Structure panel on the left side of the editor. The block appears among your menu sections and can be toggled on or off with a switch.

Only one promo card can be active per menu.

When the promo card is enabled, the following fields appear inline within the Structure panel:

• Label: A small eyebrow tag that appears above the title (e.g., "Featured", "Signature Release", "Chef's Special"). Each template provides a default label, but you can customize it.
• Title: The main heading (e.g., "Happy Hour", "Tonight's Special").
• Description: A subtitle or explanatory text describing the promotion.
• Value: A price or offer callout (e.g., "$29.95", "2 for 1", "50% off").
• Image: Some templates support an optional photo for the promo card. If available, an image uploader appears below the other fields.

The promo card block is draggable, just like your menu sections. Grab the drag handle and move it to control where the promo card appears on your menu:

• Before the first section: Drag the promo card to the top of the list. This works well for announcing a deal before guests see the full menu.
• Between sections: Drop it between any two sections. For example, place it between "Mains" and "Desserts" to highlight a prix fixe option.
• After the last section: Drag it to the bottom. Some templates use this position by default for a closing featured item or special.

Each template has a default position that works well with its layout. If you don't move the card, it stays in the template's recommended spot.

Some templates support a hero image, a large photo that appears at the top of your menu. This is great for setting the mood and establishing your restaurant's visual identity.

If your template supports hero images, you'll find a photo uploader in Menu Settings. Upload your image and use the crop tool to fit the template's required aspect ratio.
