I think since its not so much btoken as pointing to a local file, I think they may have tested it on the one device they made it, so it worked...on that device.
They should have 100% tested it on other devices
Or perhaps hire someone who knows what they're doing.
Guess I'm showing my age then. Because the intended end use device is obviously a phone, I assume they used their phone to generate the qr, send it out to etch, and test the result. I can't use my phone for shit like that. To me that is much more a real screen type of job (generating the qr code, generating the gcode in lightburn, etc) done on a computer, instead of a tablet/phone
Some tasks belong on the medium screen, not the tiny one!
Might be guests just have to connect to the network first before scanning the code.. Easy solution. Before you order you'll just have to log into our WiFi and then scan our qr code.
Those exist (and are sort of annoying) but localhost literally points back to your own machine. No network setup is going to fix that (Short of running a proxy locally or messing with your hosts file. Not normal diner behaviour)
