instead of the “wpizza_are_we_open” function referred to previously , you should now (as of v2.11.5.10) simply be able to use

wpizzaShopOpen();

without any arguments and omit

$options=get_option('wppizza');

there

>the message tht “WPPIZZA” has been installed
just click on “dismiss” ?!

>…like “DMARC”..

just follow the instruction as to what it says in that message (i.e tick the relevant checkbox or set the required email)

or am i missing something here ?!

> restricted number of items
> when they add 3 items, At least 1 was required to be

neither at the moment , but if this gets requested more often, I will revisit that/those idea(s) and do something about this.

so consider this to be on my “list of ideas”, without committing to do this (as time is better spent doing/adding things requested by many as opposed to just one, sorry)

still not sure exactly what you are after but let me guess a bit:

that page you are referring to seems to be just a list of subsites (i.e blogs) rather than menu items so I am not sure how the timed menu comes into play here ?!
or are you actually NOT using a multisite setup for this sort of thing ?
(or maybe I am just misunderstanding things)

in any case , thinking out loud and also writing a bit for anyone else that comes across this:

*if* you are using a multisite setup you would probably want to do/run a
switch_to_blog / restore_current_blog loop and within that do the following (of the top of my head, but should work). something like this:

	if ( is_multisite() ) {
 	   	$blogs = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT blog_id FROM {$wpdb->blogs}", ARRAY_A);
 	   		if ($blogs) {
        	foreach($blogs as $blog) {
           		switch_to_blog($blog['blog_id']);
				/*get wppizza options**/
				$options=get_option('wppizza');
				/*check if open**/
				$isOpen=wpizza_are_we_open($options['opening_times_standard'],$options['opening_times_custom'],$options['times_closed_standard']);

				if($isOpen){
					/*do stuff if open**/
				}else{
					/*do stuff if closed**/	
				}
				restore_current_blog();
			}}
	}

(admittedly that wpizza_are_we_open function could be more user friendly , and i might just add another function that produces the same result without having to get the $options here seperately, but that’s for another day)

however, if the story is – as i suspect – you are *NOT* using a multisite setup and you are using the timed menu to open/close your individual shops by making pages unavailable – if every page refers to a restaurant/shop (as opposed to opening times per shop), then something like the following *might* be what you are looking for

/**************
	get the timed menu options
**************/
$wpptmoptions=get_option('wppizza_timed_menu');

/**************
	get all the menu items on a page (before timed menu settings have been taken into consideration) 
	returns array with the keys being the page id and the values being the menu items
****************/
$wpptmMenuItemsOnPage=$wpptmoptions[items_on_pages];

/**************
	get the timed menu settings
	returns  array with the settings you have set in the timed menu (i.e dates/times/days/pages/menuitems etc
**************/
$wpptmSettings=$wpptmoptions[timed_items];

so, assuming you are just excluding whole pages (as a page would be all items for a restaurant here if i interpret things correctly)
something like this (there are probably other ways to code this too, but as a dummy example)

$wpptmCurrentTime=current_time('timestamp');/*wordpress time*/
$shopOpen=array();
foreach($wpptmSettings as $tm){
	if($tm[enabled]){
	
	/*
		check here if $wpptmCurrentTime is within set time date etc
		probably want to convert the below to timestamps to compare to $wpptmCurrentTime
		returns stuff like
		
		$tm[start_date] => 2014-12-02//set start date
        $tm[end_date] => 2014-12-25//set end date
        $tm[start_time] => 08:45//set start tim
        $tm[end_time] => 17:45	//set end time
$tm[day]=>Array([1] => 1,[2] => 2) //returns array of set days 0 to 6 
		$tm[enabled] =>1
		
		etc
	*/
	
	if(time-date-check-passed[you'd need to write this check]]){
		$shopOpen=array_merge($shopOpen,array_keys($tm['pages']));
	}
}}
/**flip keys to be able to use isset as opposed to in_array (and also end up with unique keys)**/
$shopOpen=array_flip($shopOpen));

/**within your pages loop you could now do smth like**/
if(isset($shopOpen[$pageId])){
	/**do stuff if open**/
}else{
	/**do stuff if closed**/	
}

`

i’m probably missing something, but i don’t really get the purpose of this in the first place.
after all, what you’d need to do is

a) select items
b) go to orderpage and fill in info
c) submit order
which does all the scripting inserting order, sending emails etc etc

so why not use what you have (i.e the website) to do this instead of building the same thing twice ?!

in any case, there’s no “API” or whatever it is you want to call it.
there are filters, actions and shortcodes you can use to do things….

also – just bit by bit where and when i can – v2.5.11.8 now also has – within each category displayed – the following classes where appropriate

wppizza-article-first
wppizza-article-last

might come in handy

english only please in this forum

from what i gather though:
a)re : phpmailer: Could not instantiate mail function

your server is not setup to send email . you must fix this:
https://www.google.co.uk/#q=phpmailer:+Could+not+instantiate+mail+function

b)re filter:
your plaintext filter will add “——-“…. somewhere.
it’s messed up because you have not added a linebreak.
i.e your “——-” should be “———“.PHP_EOL;

for starters (just busy doing other stuff)
in a grid something like this (doesnt yet address name,size,img, descr but as a starter):

article.wppizza-article{
	width:33%;
	border:1px solid #999999;
	float:left;
	clear:none;
	margin:0;
	margin-bottom:0;
}
article.wppizza-article:nth-child(3n) {
    background: blue;
    clear:left;
}

probably have to play around with this and perhaps some last child element selectors to clear after the last etc….
all pure css though

>I imagine therein lies the issue
yup
essentially there are no prices applied/existent to a menu item . however, there certainly should be and i can see them in the admin , so it’s kind of strange

somehow this looks like the meta data gets reset on display.

could you disable other plugins , and see if this changes things ?

i would need admin access (either setting your reply private here, or sending the un/pw directly to [email protected]).
can’t tell from the frontend
