Setting up your site settings is one of the most important first steps after creating your Kiwi website. These settings help ensure your site runs smoothly and sends emails correctly.
Why It Matters
- Admin Email: This is the email address your website uses to send and receive notifications, including order alerts, form submissions, and system messages.
- Time Zone: This affects your restaurant’s schedule, including opening and closing hours. If the time zone isn’t correct, your hours may show up incorrectly on the site.
How to Update Site Settings
- Log in to Your Kiwi Admin Area.
- Go to the Settings Page.
- Update the Admin Email.
- Find the Admin Email Address field.
- Enter the correct email you want the website to use (e.g., info@yourrestaurant.com).
- Click Save Changes.
- You’ll receive a confirmation email. The email won’t change until you confirm it.
- Set Your Local Time Zone.
- Scroll down to the Time Zone section.
- Choose your restaurant’s time zone from the dropdown (e.g., America/New_York).
- Click Save Changes.
You’re Done!
By setting your admin email and time zone correctly, you make sure your restaurant’s site communicates properly and shows accurate business hours.
Reminder: Always set these before adding your restaurant hours or enabling notifications.
