WhatsMenu's admin panel and storefront can now be displayed in multiple languages. The first release ships English, Chinese, and Malay — pick yours from the language switcher in the top bar.

Your customers see the storefront in their preferred language too, automatically based on their browser or your default. You'll see the language picker on customer-facing pages so they can switch if they prefer.

More languages roll out in the months ahead. No setup needed beyond turning on the languages you want to offer in your store settings.

A search bar now sits in the admin top bar. Type anything — an order number, a customer name, a product, a settings page — and jump straight to it without clicking through menus.

Especially useful when your catalogue grows past a couple of pages, when you're looking up a specific past order, or when you can't remember which settings tab a particular toggle lives on.

No setup. Open the admin and start typing in the search box at the top. Click a result to go straight there.

You can now plug an email-verification service into your storefront customer signup. When a shopper enters an obvious throw-away or invalid email (mailinator, tempmail, gibberish addresses, etc.), they're asked to use a real one before creating an account.

Helps keep your customer list clean — no more orders tied to addresses you can't email later, fewer fake accounts gaming first-order coupons, and saner marketing exports.

Optional. Activate under Settings → Apps → Email Validation; you'll need an EmailListVerify API key. Leave it off and signup behaves exactly as before.

A new module lets you show a pop-up on your storefront before a customer can browse — typical use cases include age verification (alcohol, vape, adult products), allergen warnings, or asking the customer to confirm a preference like dine-in vs takeaway.

The pop-up can require a date of birth, a yes/no confirmation, or a custom text input. Once a customer accepts, the choice is remembered for the session so they're not re-prompted on every page.

Activate under Settings → Apps → Menu Modals. Useful for any merchant whose products are restricted by age or law, or who needs the customer to acknowledge something before browsing.

Order numbers no longer have to be plain auto-incrementing IDs. You can now define a template that includes the year, your store prefix, the day of the year, or a custom counter — anything that fits your numbering convention.

Examples:

• INV-{YEAR}-{SEQ} → INV-2025-0142
• {STORE}-{DATE}-{SEQ} → BAKERY-20250602-014
• Plain sequential, your prefix, no prefix — your call

Useful for matching your existing accounting or invoice numbering, separating online from in-store orders, or just looking more professional. Set it up under your store settings.
