Calico Restaurant Menu Builder For Elementor is a lightweight Elementor add-on for building responsive food and drink menus with section headings, item descriptions, standard prices, multiple-price options, notes, dividers, spacers, and leader dots.

Requirements

• WordPress 6.5 or newer
• PHP 7.4 or newer
• Elementor 3.20.0 or newer
• Elementor Free or Pro; Pro is not required

Using the Elementor widget

1. Activate Elementor and this plugin.
2. Edit a page with Elementor.
3. Add the Calico Restaurant Menu Builder widget from the General category.
4. Create rows and choose a row type for each.
5. Use the Layout and Style panels to adjust responsive spacing, typography, colors, leader dots, and mobile behavior.

Existing widget, control, and CSS identifiers from version 2.0.1 are retained in version 2.1.0.

Shortcode

For simple plain-text menus, use:

[rmbfe_restaurant_menu]
Appetizers
French Fries | $4.00 | Hand cut and lightly salted.
Soup | $6.00
---
[/rmbfe_restaurant_menu]

The legacy [restaurant_menu_builder] tag remains available for backward compatibility. Shortcode content is escaped and rendered as plain text.

Data and privacy

The plugin creates no custom options, database tables, cookies, analytics, or telemetry. Elementor stores widget settings with the page content. Uninstalling the plugin does not delete that content.

WordPress periodically requests public release metadata from the plugin's GitHub repository to check for updates. This administrative request does not include menu content or visitor data.

GitHub updates

The plugin includes Plugin Update Checker 5.7 under its MIT license. It compares the installed plugin version with the latest non-prerelease GitHub release or version tag and uses WordPress's standard plugin update interface. Automatic updates are not enabled by the plugin; an administrator starts an update with the normal Update now action.

For each stable release:

1. Keep the plugin header version, RMBFE_VERSION, readme stable tag, changelog, Git tag, and package version synchronized.
2. Tag the release as vX.Y.Z or X.Y.Z in the public repository.
3. Create a non-prerelease GitHub release for that tag.
4. Attach the installable ZIP named calico-restaurant-menu-builder-for-elementor-X.Y.Z.zip. The ZIP must contain exactly one top-level directory named calico-restaurant-menu-builder-for-elementor.
5. Test Dashboard > Updates > Check again, the Plugins-screen notice, View version details, and Update now from the previous stable version.

Version 2.1.1 is a version-only release used to verify that installed 2.1.0 copies detect and install a newer GitHub release through WordPress's standard manual update flow.
