Simple online food ordering site for a small home cooking food service.
Foundry with some little help of the “Live Data” stack, “Form Loom” plugin and my “Live Data Condition” stack.
Features:
The dishes and their prices on the menu are populated from a Google spreadsheet (via the Live Data Stack)
Orders taken via the form are send as mails (order confirmation and order notification) and stored into a Google spreadsheet (via Form Loom) including some additional fields like the calendar week of the order.
The order form is hidden once a number of orders has come in (small self written Live Data Condition Stack, the number of available orders is also set up in the Google spreadsheet)
Newsletter signup for Mail Chimp CRM for the weekly menu
So the owner can update the menu via Google Sheets and has a track of all orders for every week.
Thanks for sharing the fruits of your labours with regards to the website entitled ‘Gabs Kitchen’ @HeikoK . I’ve been asked to set up something similar. Not yet at the stage in which I’ve implemented an ordering form, menu request or newsletter sign up. Was it relatively straightforward ? #thanksforsharing
Setting up the Google Spreadsheet for reading via Live Data Stack and writing the orders via FormLoom was a little bit fiddly, but not a big deal.
There’s a small update in the works, replacing the FormLoom plugin with the FormSnap stacks, so I can use the Dishes from the Google Spreadsheet also in the form labels and mail templates, which just looks nicer and enhances the user experience a bit. (FormLoom over FormSnap supports validation rules which I was using in a first version of the site, but this is no longer required)
