A website in an afternoon
Coming soon: generate three directions from what Menulisa already knows, pick one, edit the words in place, publish.

Coming soon: the website builder is paused while we rebuild it, so Menu › Website isn’t in your dashboard right now. When it returns, your website is built from data you already entered — name, branches, hours, menu, photos — so it can never go out of date. You choose a direction, tune the words, and press one button.
The scenario
No website yet. A menu with photos, two branches, opening hours filled in. You want something live before the weekend.
Do it
- 1Open Menu › Website and press Generate my website. It reads Designing your site… while it composes sections and writes copy in your languages.
- 2Pick your favorite: three directions, same content. Press Use this design — or Try different directions.
- 3Edit: Click any text on the page to edit it directly. Under Sections, Add section, Move up / Move down, and change each section’s Layout — Cover, Split, Cards, Film strip and so on. Theme changes the whole look. Changes say Saved as you go.
- 4Press Publish. You’ll see Your site is live; the status pill reads Live. View site opens it.
What you’ll see
- Menu prices, opening hours and branch addresses on the site are the live ones — change them in Menulisa and the site follows.
- Unhappy with it? Take offline. The status goes back to Draft and nothing is lost.
- If AI isn’t configured for your account the page says Using template copy — AI isn’t configured and gives you sensible text to edit instead.
TipPut the menu link and the booking line above the fold and stop. A restaurant site has two jobs — what do you serve, how do I get a table — and everything else is decoration.
