Awesome idea. I've been saving recipes to a google doc for a while and have been looking for a product to make it worthwhile to go through and import all of them.
I've had a few issues with images (both URL and upload), but other than that this is by far the least buggy online recipe box I've used.
One suggestion - enable some sort of tagging/categorization system to help with planning meals.
Thanks for your work!
- jkkramer 16y agoThanks. I'm investigating the image issues (seems you bumped into it right off the bat). There is tagging & tag/ingredient-based searching, though it's not integrated with the planner per se. I'll think about that. EDIT: FYI, tags are in the Your Notes section if you didn't notice
- caixa 16y agoThanks! Hadn't scrolled down all the way. Not sure how common it will be for a user to add dozens of recipes at once, but I'm finding it tiring to go back and copy in all of the instructions. For a user like me, the awesome thing about YumTab is having all of my recipes in one place, so copying over the instructions is essential. Is there any way to make it easier to add info manually, at least while you work on scraping the instructions? For now, I'm having to run the bookmarklet, refresh My Recipes on YumTab, click on the newly added recipe, click edit, go back to the original recipe, copy the instructions, go back to YumTab, and paste it. For now, allowing manual input within the bookmarklet could help.
- jkkramer 16y agoI originally envisioned this as a replacement for delicious, and have been thinking about instructions as nice-to-have but not essential (I don't bother adding them myself, I just open the original recipe). However, your goal is probably common, so I'll see about catering to it. Thanks again.
