Release history

SlothMenu Pro 1.53.0 is available as an update through Freemius. Lite remains at version 1.51.0.

• Fixed the saving of each menu's reference language. Set the language of original dishes on the relevant menu; changing it reclassifies existing text without translating it and preserves saved translations. The editor warns when categories are missing.
• Enter weekly specials once for the whole week and disable them without deleting their data. Web, PDF and kiosk outputs support specials; the PWA can mark a special sold out for a selected day.
• When preparing PDFs in WordPress or the PWA, choose specials together with the menu or on separate pages, before or after the daily menu, for this export only. For individual days, repeat specials, print them once on shared separate pages, or omit them. Saved profile defaults are unchanged.
• PDF pagination is more readable, with an actual page preview, page count, navigation and zoom. Template previews are refreshed, and Word exports now include weekly specials.
• The visual editor calendar marks days with saved dishes and weekly specials and helps prepare several weeks in advance.
• A separate CSV/XLSX schedule import assigns catalog dishes to days or weeks. AI import and planning support weekly specials and multiple prepared weeks; review suggestions before saving, and publish manually.
• The PWA aligns daily-menu and weekly-special controls, with updated translations across all six interface languages. Check your own imported templates against the intended output.

SlothMenu Pro 1.52.0 is available as an update through Freemius. Lite remains at version 1.51.0.

• AI menu import supports DOCX, ODT, ODS, XLSX, CSV, PDF and photos. The preview separates dishes and sides while retaining source text and the total price.
• Dishes and sides have independent Menu only, Menu and catalog, and Skip choices. Unique exact matches link to the catalog; similar names can be searched and selected. New records are saved only after confirmation, without repeated duplicates or changes to existing metadata.
• The import period can be changed. Replacing published days requires confirmation of the exact period; menu publication remains manual.
• The editor improves dish and side search, adds sides while typing, and moves or duplicates dishes to another day.
• PDF exports, including the PWA, use publication-profile templates for the week, individual days and static menus. Previews reflect the current saved design.
• The PWA places notifications in the top bar, improves mobile-keyboard editing and keeps the AI assistant above bottom navigation.
• Visible plugin pages can be configured per WordPress role. The Updates page shows version information and flags new releases in administrator notifications.
• The activation screen uses the current logo. Connected AI hides redundant connection buttons, and model presets include GPT-6 Luna. Publication profiles can be deleted with confirmation.

SlothMenu Pro 1.51.1 is available as an update through Freemius. The current Lite version is 1.51.0.

• Features become available only with a configured connection, the required licence and role permissions. The same conditions apply to staff in the PWA.
• Chat retention information in Settings alongside the existing reset instructions.

Lite and Pro available. Pro 1.51.0 was released through Freemius; the matching Lite 1.51.0 is available to download.
