Menu selections

Lesley, 15 January, 2024 at 14:33 Posted on Feedback to Hitched 1 17

Hi, I might be missing something obvious. Is there a way to turn off the menu selection? My guests will choose their food on the day and I'm unsure how to turn this off.

    Hi, there is a track menu check box that can be unselected. It sits in Guestlist > Wedding Breakfast ( or whichever you've added your guests too) then settings.


    Hope that helps

    What software/application are you using to manage your ordering? (For example, an online ordering app, a POS system, a custom website, or some other tool?) PolyTrack

    You’re not missing anything obvious—this can be a bit confusing. In many systems, menu selection is enabled by default, and turning it off usually depends on the event or form settings you’re using. It’s worth checking whether there’s an option to disable guest choices or switch to a “selection on the day” setup. Similar usability questions and solutions are often discussed on https://techbunch.org/ which might be helpful as well.

    That’s a common question, especially when planning events where guests decide on the day. Some platforms don’t clearly separate advance menu selection from on-site choices, so the option can be easy to miss. Checking the event configuration or reaching out to support usually helps clarify what can be disabled. I’ve seen similar event-planning tips and discussions on https://magcorner.co.uk/ which often covers practical setup questions like this.

    Turning off menu selection usually depends on how the booking or ordering system is set up. In most cases, switching from pre-selected meals to on-the-day choices requires disabling required menu fields or setting the event type to open ordering, which lets guests decide when they arrive. It can also help to add a short note for guests explaining that food will be chosen at the venue to avoid confusion. Restaurants that manage high walk-in traffic handle this well, and places like ming wo burnley are a good example of how flexible ordering on the day can work smoothly without locking guests into advance selections.

    You’re not missing anything some platforms automatically require menu selections, but many allow you to disable pre-selection so guests can choose on the day. Check the event settings or “meal preferences” section to turn it off. If you’re looking for inspiration, even guides like carte KfcMenuFr show how menus can be displayed clearly while letting guests decide their choices freely.

    Turning off menu pre-selection is easier than it looks — just head to Guestlist > Wedding Breakfast > Settings and uncheck the "Track Menu" option. If your platform handles it differently, checking the event configuration or contacting support usually sorts it out quickly. Guests choosing on the day is actually a great way to keep things relaxed!

    If you want to eat food from outside then you need to select a menu and give order.

    If your guests are choosing meals on the day, you may not need to collect menu selections in advance. Check whether your RSVP settings let you disable meal choices or make them optional. Just as an Executive Orlando Limo Service is often arranged in advance while keeping travel plans flexible, your catering details can remain simple until the celebration.

    Choosing meals in advance can definitely make event planning easier, especially when guests have different preferences. Sharing a few meal ideas with everyone can also help people decide more easily, while giving the caterer a better idea of quantities and preferences.

    Menu planning is often about finding a good balance between variety, convenience, and what guests actually want to eat. Looking through different menu choices can make the selection process simpler, especially when several guests have different tastes.

    I agree that comparing meal choices before ordering can be useful, particularly when prices and available options vary. Checking current food deals alongside the available meals can make it easier to compare value and choose something that suits the occasion.

    When choosing meals for an event, it can help to compare different portions and combinations before making a final decision. Looking at a few meal options can give guests a better idea of what suits their preferences while also making planning quantities easier for the host.

    I think having clear choices makes meal planning much easier, especially when different guests have different tastes. Sharing some food ideas can help people decide in advance and make the overall catering process more organised.
