Drafts and publishing

Use this page when a menu change does not show on the website. Three menu screens keep your change as a draft until you click Publish changes.

Changes that go live when you save

These screens have a Save button. The website shows the change as soon as you click Save.

• Menu > Items
• Menu > Item groups
• Media

Changes that need Publish

These screens have a Publish changes button. The dashboard saves a draft about every 1.5 seconds while you type. The website does not show the draft.

• Menu > Categories
• Menu > Modifiers
• Menu > Modifier groups

Status at the top of the screen shows whether the website shows your latest change.

To publish, click Publish changes.

Preview a change

• Click the eye icon, Live Preview, to see the draft as the website would show it. Categories and modifier groups have this icon.
• Click the arrow icon, View live, to open the published category on the website.

Good to know

• If a category's Status shows Draft, the website does not show the category or its items.
• If a modifier's or a modifier group's Status shows Draft, the website shows its Clover name and ignores its dashboard settings.
• Versions at the top lists the last 50 versions. Open one and click Restore this version to go back to it.
• If you leave a screen before you publish, the dashboard keeps the draft. The website shows the draft only after you click Publish changes.
