A Word On Options

Options are the portion of an item that are up to the customer. Some examples:
  1. Side options
  2. Toppings
  3. Drinks included with combo
You as the admin can limit how many component options can be selected when a user is ordering. Let's take a look at an example:
A user selects a cheeseburger and would like to customize the toppings. There are three sections after the initial selection is made:
  1. Toppings (Unlimited)
    1. Lettuce
    2. Tomato
    3. Pickle
    4. Onion
    5. Avocado
  2. Side (Choose 1)
    1. Fries
    2. Fruit
    3. Chips
If we would like them to only be able to select one side, how do we do so? Let's take a look:
