      Frequently Asked Questions 

      What should I do if the menu entries won't show?

      If a new menu entry doesn't show up or update immediately, clear your shop cache and the browser cache (Safari on iOS devices and Chrome on Android devices). 

      If this didn't help, completely quit your app. Wait for 20 minutes or so and restart the app.
