Frequently asked questions
wordpress custom for a restaurants, pizzerias and venues: how long does a project typically take?
It depends on the scale, but for most cases we're talking about 2-4 weeks from sign-off to going live, content included. For complex cases (many languages, integrations with industry software) it can take 6-8 weeks.
Can I start even if I don't have all my content (text, photos) ready?
Yes. We offer copy support and image selection as a separate package, or we proceed with placeholders and swap them in along the way. The important thing is to nail the positioning before the design phase.
Can I update the site on my own after delivery?
Yes. We deliver with a simple editorial panel (organised by content type) and 2 hours of training included. For structural changes (new sections, new templates) we step in.
Does the site comply with restaurants, pizzerias and venues industry regulations?
Yes. For this industry we take into account: Sector subject to health SCIA notification and allergen obligations (EU Reg. 1169/2011) visible on the menu. The website must display allergens in an accessible way. We always start from compliance, we don't add it afterwards.
Why custom WordPress and not a ready-made template?
Ready-made templates are cheap but tie you to the choices of whoever built them: colours, fonts, structure, bundled plugins you can't remove. With a custom theme you pay for development once, then you have a site that's yours, reflects your brand, and doesn't weigh visitors down with useless features. Over the medium term it costs less: no theme licence fees, fewer plugins to update, less risk of incompatibility.
Can I manage the content myself after delivery?
Yes, that's WordPress's strong point. We hand over the site with the block editor (Gutenberg) configured with blocks for your recurring sections (hero, service cards, testimonials, etc.) and ACF custom fields where needed. A 1-hour training session makes you self-sufficient in managing text, images, articles and pages.
Do you use Elementor, Divi or other page builders?
No, we avoid them. Visual page builders look convenient but produce heavy HTML, bloated CSS, and dependencies that block WordPress updates. We use Gutenberg (WordPress's native editor) with custom blocks we build ourselves: same editing comfort, 3-4 times better performance, zero lock-in.
Do WordPress updates risk breaking the site?
Not if the theme is well built. We follow the WordPress Coding Standards and the child-theme architecture: core and plugin updates don't touch our code. With the Care Start plan (79€/month, first year included) we apply updates in staging first, then in production, with a rollback ready if anything goes wrong.
Can an e-commerce be integrated?
Yes, via WooCommerce. However, if the project is e-commerce-centric from the start, consider our dedicated E-commerce service: the choice between WordPress+WooCommerce, Shopify or headless platforms depends on catalogue, volumes and operational complexity.
