Lineweb Restaurant Orders
Lineweb Restaurant Orders gives restaurants, cafés, and takeaway businesses a self-hosted QR menu and online food ordering workflow inside WordPress. Customers can order delivery, pickup, or dine-in directly from the restaurant’s own website. There are no commissions, paid feature gates, trials, or Pro upsells.
Features include:
- Food items, categories, variants, extras, dietary labels, allergens, and featured items.
- Delivery, pickup, and optional dine-in table ordering.
- Server-authoritative cart validation and totals.
- Cash payment and optional Stripe card payments.
- Order management, statuses, printable receipts, sound alerts, and aggregate reports.
- Customer order-status tracking protected by an opaque order token.
- QR-code generation and an optional, menu-scoped progressive web app.
- Optional Twilio WhatsApp order notifications.
- Configurable retention and anonymization of completed order personal data.
For the complete ordering experience, create a page and select the Food Menu App View page template. The [snaporder_restaurant_menu] shortcode provides a lightweight menu catalogue inside a normal theme page.
External services
Lineweb Restaurant Orders works without an external service when cash payment is used. The following optional integrations are contacted only after a site administrator enables and configures them.
Stripe
Stripe is used to process card payments. The browser loads Stripe.js from https://js.stripe.com/ and sends card details directly to Stripe. The plugin sends the authoritative order amount, currency, WordPress order ID, and an idempotency key to https://api.stripe.com/. Stripe returns payment identifiers and statuses; Lineweb Restaurant Orders does not store full card details.

Twilio
Twilio is used only when WhatsApp notifications are enabled. Lineweb Restaurant Orders sends the configured sender number, customer phone number, and the relevant order/status message to https://api.twilio.com/.
Twilio sender and customer numbers must use international E.164 format, for example whatsapp:+14155238886.

Development and source
Lineweb Restaurant Orders ships its runtime assets locally. To reproduce them, install Node.js 20 or newer, run npm ci, and then run npm run build from the plugin directory.
The build compiles tailwind.input.css to assets/css/app.css and uses tools/copy-vendor-assets.mjs to copy the pinned Lucide and QRCode.js files and licenses. Exact dependency versions are recorded in package-lock.json; the release includes these asset sources and excludes installed development dependencies.
