How to Create Multiple Outlet Selector Buttons on Your Widget

Created by Customer Service Bookia/Tableo, Modified on Tue, 22 Jul at 4:11 PM by Customer Service Bookia/Tableo

If you manage a chain of restaurants, you can create a single booking widget that lets diners choose between your venues using radio buttons.



Here’s how to set it up:


Step 1: Ensure Your Chain Is Set Up in Tableo

We recommend that your restaurants are linked under one chain. See how to do this here →



Step 2: Copy the widget URL from one of your restaurants

1. Go to Settings > Account Settings > Online Bookings

2. Copy the widget link of any one of the restaurants in your chain



3. Paste it into a notepad or browser — the long URL will look like this:

https://app.tableo.com/admin/restaurants/gwens-bistro/widget-preview?hideTitle=&bgColor=%23f6f7fb&textColor=%234d594b&googleFont=Arial&fontSize=16&cornerStyle=rounded&textAlignment=left&formControlBgColor=%23869583&formControlColor=%23ffffff&formControlBorderColor=%23ffffff&formControlBorderShadow=6&formControlBorderWidth=4&formControlBorderOpacity=1&buttonBgColor=%234d594b&buttonTextColor=%23ffffff


Step 3: Build the multi-venue URL

To enable the outlet selector, you'll need to modify the widget URL:

1. Find the part of the URL that ends after your restaurant name (e.g. /gwens-bistro/ highlighted above)

2. Modify the URL by adding: multiple?restaurants= followed by the other restaurants in the chain, and a comma



/gwens-bistro/multiple?restaurants=restaurant-1,restaurant-2,


Example:


https://app.tableo.com/widget/gwens-bistro/multiple?restaurants=gwens-bistro,bens-bistro,&bgColor=...


Important:

  • Each restaurant name must be separated by a comma
  • The last restaurant name should be followed by a comma and end in &



Use the exact name as shown in the Tableo URL when you switch restaurants:



https://app.tableo.com/admin/restaurants/bens-bistro/


Once this is set up, your booking widget will display a venue selector at the top, making it easy for customers to book at the location they prefer.


Important:

  • You need to update the widget with the method above for each restaurant in your chain.
