Overview
A picker is combines combos and/or items. On the example below, we have created a picker to compile the whopper medium meal (“MEDIUM”), the whopper large meal (“LARGE”) and the whopper single item (“À LA CARTE” = ALC). This way, when the guest navigates to the “Flame-grilled burgers” section, he sees the “Whopper” picker instead of seeing the whopper medium meal, the whopper large meal and the whopper menu item. When they click on the picker, they will choose between a large combo, a medium combo and the ALC product, and other aspects that can be configured (eg: in case we want to link this picker to the whopper bacon and/or cheese MDS menu items, we would add a picker aspect with the “bacon, cheese, bacon & cheese” options; in case we want guests to be able to add cheese and/or bacon to the item, but without making it a new item, we would not add this picker aspect - we would simply have these ingredients as modifiers.

Document Fields

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Name | This is the name that will be displayed for this picker |
| |||
Image | This is the example image that will be displayed for the picker | ||||
Image Description | This will be used as the alt attribute or as an Aria label for the image (An alt attribute is what shows if the image is unable to render) | ||||

Quick Configs | These are options that the user can use to auto populate a field. A great example of this is Tim Hortons coffee option Single Single and Double Double | ||||
Options | Everything we would like to include in the section.If we have picker aspects we would have to map each item to each picker aspect response. Example: Picker Aspect Combo Size ( options: A la Carte, Small,Medium and Large). Picker options: Picker aspect A la Carte-> Bacon Cheeseburger item, Picker aspect Small-> Bacon Cheeseburger Meal Small, Picker aspect Medium-> Bacon Cheeseburger Meal Medium, Picker aspect Large-> Bacon Cheeseburger Meal Large. This will help us know when a user selects one or the other picker aspect to know what item to link it to. |
