      Hello Olly,

      following use case:
      With a menu item, the customer must have two options. For the first option, he must be able to select the menu item as a single, without selecting an ingredient. In addition (near of the first option), the customer must have the option of ordering the same menu item as a menu. The ingredients window must be opened for this menu order. (see scrennshot here)

      At the moment it is only possible (with the ingredients plugin) that the ingredients window opens for the two options.
      Is there a way to implement this requirement?

      I think it’s an important feature for many wp-pizza users.

      Thnaks and best regards.

        Hi

        first of all, this is already possible. You simply need to use “exclude” type custom groups and apply those as required to your first menu item (the single burger in this case)

        Secondly – though that’s just a personal opinion and you can do what you like of course – I think you are overcomplicating things for no reason.
        It appears to me you are somewhat trying to combine 2 different things into one item.
        I.e we really are talking about 2 different product here. One is a burger as is , the other is a menu (that happens to contain a burger I presume).

        Especially if at some point you want to allow people to add things to this single burger – i.e they can create their own kind of menu so to speak – you will go insane setting this up using all sorts of custom groups applying those to one, but not the other.
        Sure , it’s do-able as mentioned above, but for your own sanity I would really recommend you make this 2 different and independent products (as that’s what they are really)

        Again, just my 2 cents, you can do as you please of course.

          Hello,

          first of all thanks for your answer and for your advice.

          At the moment I’m actually planning that the single item has to come without any other ingredient. The corresponding menu must offer the possibility of adding different ingredients. I tried this with the exclude function. I have excluded all ingredients in “single”. Unfortunately, the ingredient window still opens. But the window is empty.

          It appears to me you are somewhat trying to combine 2 different things into one item.

          Treating them as two different products will make my list of items big. Because I have several items that are both single and menu.
