Move a dish into a different category (for example from Breakfast to Lunch) so it shows in the right group on your menu. You do this from the dish, not from the Category list.
Before you start
The category you want must already exist. If it does not, add it first under Menu, then Category. See How to Add a New Category.
How to change a dish category
- Open Menu, then Dishes.
- Find the dish you want to move. Use Search if the list is long.
- Open the dish to open Edit Dish.
- Change the Category field to the category you want (for example Lunch).
- Click Save Changes.
For full dish field help, see How to Add a New Dish. To rename or fix the category itself, see How to Edit Categories.
What happens next
The dish's Category column on the Dishes list updates. Category cards under Menu, then Category also reflect how many dishes sit in each group.
