# How to Integrate Multivendor Addon in WPCafe

## **Multivendor Support Notice:**

**Important**: Currently, we are providing **Dokan multivendor support on wpcafe food menu only**. The Themewinter team is working to give multivendor support to pickup delivery, reservation, food with reservation, and other modules. These compatibilities will be added in the future.

## **Step** **1. Plugin Installation**

### **Prerequisites** 

- WordPress Version: 5.2 or, higher
- WPCafe Plugin
- PHP Version: 5.6 or higher
- PHP memory_limit = 512M
- max_execution_time = 600

### **Installing and Activating Required Plugins** 

You need to install 4 plugins to get the complete set of functionality for this addon.

From your dashboard, **install and activate** the following plugins:

- WPCafe Multivendor
- WPCafe 
- WooCommerce
- Dokan
- **WPCafe Pro(If you need pro features)**

After installing and activating the plugin, you have to save the permalink. ** Go to your dashboard, click on settings. Then open permalink settings, select ‘post name’, and save changes**

## **Step** **2. General settings**

### **WPCafe**

From your dashboard, go to** ****WPCafe****-> Settings** and choose th**e Food Ordering** tab, where you will find all the features to customize the Food Menu.
**NOTE:** When the WPCafe Multivendor Restaurant Addon is active, **Location settings** and **Discount Options** are **disabled**from the **admin panel.**But don’t worry, vendors can choose their own Discounts and allow location from the **vendor panel**. Reservation and Order Time Management will still work globally from the Admin panel, not from the Vendor panel.
