A private control panel for BRASA

The kitchen runs here.

Everything that powers your storefront — orders, menu, locations, catering policy, taxes, coupons, and theme — lives in one private dashboard. Built for restaurants and caterers who want operational control without the WordPress noise.

Private & access-controlled · Separate from /wp-admin/ · Sub-account permissions per screen

Designed around how a kitchen actually runs.

Orders, triaged

One screen with tabs for Pending, Being Processed, and Completed. Full-text search by order #, customer name, email, phone, or ZIP. Click an order to view the full receipt, change status, drop a note for the line cook.

Build-your-own, the right way

Each food item gets three accordions: Includes (default ingredients), Options (with per-group max selections + automatic over-limit upcharges), and Substitutions (yellow mustard for mayo, that kind of thing). Customers see the rules live as they build.

Pickup & Catering, side by side

One toggle decides whether the front-end pop-up shows Pickup, Catering, or both. Each location supports either or both — and the catering flow asks for the venue, the ZIP, and the date.

Locations with smart search

Add as many service addresses as you need. On the front-end, if you have more than three, a wildcard-prefix-and-suffix search appears automatically. Bare terms become *term* — exactly what guests expect.

Closed dates, real-time

Close June 12th. Cap Friday at 8 orders. The catering checkout calls the date check on input and refuses politely when capacity is gone — "we apologize, please pick another time."

Travel fees by ZIP

One row per ZIP. The catering checkout looks up the customer's ZIP, adds the fee as a checkout line item, and prints it on the receipt with the area label.

Special services as line items

Long-haul travel surcharge, set-up server, eco packaging, action stations — any chargeable add-on. Show them on the catering checkout, charge them on the receipt.

Tax, your way

No tax · US sales tax for in-state only · US sales tax for everyone · VAT for everyone. Configurable rate, configurable home state.

Explicit catering receipts

Order Information, Service Information, Billing Information, Order Items with grouped-options breakdown, Service & Travel Fees, Totals, Payment Information, and the full editable Agreement & Signature. Print, email customer, or email anyone — one button each.

Promotional coupons

Percent or fixed amount. Optional usage cap, minimum subtotal, start/expire window. Server-side validated at place-order so nothing slips.

Page Content CMS

Every text and image piece on every public page (home, menu, product, cart, about, contact, etc.) is edited here in a tabbed interface — no Gutenberg, no shortcodes, no theme files to hack.

Theme & branding

Background, ink, ember, honey, sage, fonts, base size — six native colour pickers and three font stacks. Global, or per-page overrides on the home / about / contact pages.

Sub-account permissions

Only administrators can create sub-accounts. Each sub-account gets a checkbox grid of exactly which screens it can see and use. Hand a line cook just Orders; hand a manager everything except Sub-Admins.

Private by design

The control panel lives at /brasa-control/ — outside /wp-admin/. Anyone hitting this page sees the marketing summary; the dashboard is gated behind your credentials.
