Widgets

Menu board: items and prices, typed in or from a sheet

A menu that’s easy to change: type the items in, or keep them in a Google Sheet and change a price in one cell.

A Menu board widget on a TV titled Coffee, in two columns: Hot, with espresso, latte and cappuccino, and Iced, with cold brew, iced latte and iced tea, each with a price.

What it shows

A title, then your items under section headings. As a list, each item has its price at the end of a dotted line and its note under it. As photos, each item is a card with its picture.

Add it

Drag Menu board from the Widgets list onto the grid, or tap an empty cell and pick it. Click it to open its settings: on a computer in the panel on the right, on a phone in a sheet from the bottom.

SettingWhat it does

Like every widget, it also has a Background colour, and Show last updated, which marks when it last refreshed its data. Late data is always marked.

Reading prices from a sheet

  1. In Google Sheets, use File > Share > Publish to web, and publish the sheet as CSV.
  2. Name the columns Name, Price, Note, Image and Section.
  3. Paste the link into Google Sheet (CSV link).

The menu reads the sheet every 5 minutes. If a refresh fails, the last prices stay on screen with their age. The full story is in menus on a schedule.
