Edit a Category

What this guide covers

Updates a category’s name, display settings, or configuration.

Steps

Step 1: Navigate to the Menus section using the left-hand navigation menu.

Step 2: Click on the Categories folder to view all categories.

Step 3: Find the category you want to edit, click the action menu (three dots) in the same row, and select Edit.

Step 4: Update any of the following fields:

Field	What to enter	Notes
Category Name	The display name for this category	e.g., "Chicken", "Sides", "Desserts". Changes will be visible to customers.
Display Name	Optional alternate name for specific channels	Use a shorter label if needed on certain platforms. Leave blank to use the Category Name.
Description	Optional internal notes about this category	Visible only to your team — not shown to customers.
Available Hours	Optional time window for this category	Restrict availability to specific hours — e.g., "6:00 AM - 11:00 AM". Leave blank for all-day availability.

Step 5: Once you have made your changes, click Save to apply them.

note

The category code cannot be edited — it’s permanent and used for system integrations. Changes to category name and availability take effect when the menu is republished.
