Locu is a service which allows you to easily edit, design and share your restaurant menu or other business price list. Using their shortcode, you can embed such a listing into your WordPress.com site.

If you aren’t yet a Locu user, you’ll need to first sign up for an account.

Embedding a Locu Menu

Once you’ve created a Locu account, you can add a menu to your WordPress.com site using these instructions.

1. After you’ve created your menu on the Locu site, click on the “Publish” icon on the left navigation bar of the screen.
