Hey Ken. How's it going? I only came for the recipes. LOL

[Ken (OP)]

Good deal. 

We just need more of 'em.  :wink2:

[Skhilled]

Will do, Ken.  :bbq:

EDIT: I assume that I have to create an html article or do you have a board specifically for recipes? Please keep in mind that I do have a ton of them.

On the 'forum' page look for Reviews in the Links block. (left side)
That takes you to a little how-to on how to post a review, it's a lot like posting an article including picking a category for your recipe... I've been using the 'Fine Food & Gourmet Cooking' category for recipe's.

The how-to page includes links to the Reviews main page and it also has a link for 'Add a Review'
You can use bbc tags for your post, or use the html tags if you need to include html in the post... as mentioned it's very much like a TP article, except there's no editor.


Note... if we start to get very many recipes maybe I should switch to TP articles so that the editor would be available?

Ah! I used the MiniUser CP and Tools to submit an html article. I already submitted one. You can delete it and I'll use what you posted above.

Thanks, Les. You still have that one setup? LOL I think I might have one of mine posted in there...can't remember. I still remember the Scottish Eggs recipe I made from there.

Don't worry, I'll be making you hungry again soon. LOL

Gotta go pick up some ribs and eat. Be back in a little while.

I went ahead and approved your article.

We'll leave it posted for now because I'm trying to sort out just how would be the best way to post recipes... they don't quite fit correctly in the Reviews boards, so maybe we need to have an article category for them?
Go ahead and post in the Reviews section if you wish, it won't hurt if it's in two places.

[Lesmond]

Hey Les, I downloaded this file and have been reading the instructions... seems fairly simple to install but I have a couple of questions.

How did you pull it into your forum?
Did you have any install or setup issues?

[Lesmond]

used a Iframe in a article, must admit it was so long ago that I set it up
