Menu Items: Create a new menu item type "Link to"

Allow a menu item to be used as a navigational shortcut.

For this release, a menu item can link to a menu item category when the ordering hierarchy makes this a preferable option. When the linked menu item is clicked, the ordering menu will display the menu items that exist in the linked menu item category. (Linking a menu item to a menu item category allows discounts to be applied to the menu items in that linked menu item category.) 

Example: 

  • On the ordering menu, click menu item category COLORS. 
  • From the menu items shown, click the linked menu item BLUES.
  • Menu item BLUES is linked to the menu item category BLUE COLORS.
    • When the menu item BLUES is clicked, the menu items in the BLUE COLORS menu item category are shown on the ordering screen: 
      Aqua
      Periwinkle
      Powder blue
