Adding a member recipe
Members can create a recipe from the main Recipes panel
Recipe basics
A default image is provided in case members do not wish to bother with a picture, however they can easily add one by clicking the edit button. On a mobile device, this will allow them to choose an existing photo, or take a new one with their camera.
The title, servings and time may also be set.
Adding ingredients
Apps that have pre-filled ingredients will allow members to select an existing ingredient, or add their own, while others will only have the option to add their own ingredient names.
Quantity, unit of measure and shopping aisle also need to be set.
Making changes
Member may edit or delete their own recipes
Nutrition
Nutrition values are calculated, when possible. In other words, if a user has the ability to select from the pre-filled list of ingredients, the nutrition will be calculated and displayed. However, if that is not possible, nutrition will not show on the recipe as it could not be calculated.
Using member recipes
Once added, member recipes have the same functionality as admin recipes.
Member recipes are only shown and available for use to the member that created it
Member recipes are included in recipe searches
Recipe lists
If you utilize Recipe categories, members will have a new category call My Recipes. Otherwise, member recipes will appear at the beginning of the recipes lists.
Member recipes do not appear in your recipe categories, nor the All recipes page in order to highlight your own content.
