How to create a touchless online menu with RMS
The benefits of an online restaurant menu are undeniable, including:
- Reducing the printing cost
- Environment friendly
- Updating the menu without re-printing
- Safer for both customers and staff: the online menu can limit cross-contamination from sharing the physical menu. It is especially important with the current COVID-19 pandemic
In this blog post, we will show you how to create a touchless online menu with our RMS component through some simple steps:
Step 1: Create online menu item
In your Joomla backend, create a menu item with the type “Restaurant Management System (RMS) > E-menus” and publish it. Then copy the menu URL for the next step.
Step 2: Generate QR code
Use an online QR code generator tool (there are many good choices, choose the one that you feel comfortable to work with), then generate your desired QR code from the URL copied from step 1. We’d like to suggest this one:

Step 3: Print the QR code
Print your QR code and put them in your restaurant’s places like tables, doors.
Tips: if you want to show an online menu layout only without your website template, then you can use this URL:
https://YOUR_WEBSITE/index.php?option=com_rms&view=menus&layout=emenus&property_id=X&tmpl=component
In the above URL, replace X with your property ID in “property_id=X”, for example, if your RMS property ID is 10, then the final link will look like this:
https://YOUR_WEBSITE/index.php?option=com_rms&view=menus&layout=emenus&property_id=10&tmpl=component
We hope this blog post could be useful for you, stay safe and healthy!
