Concerning reordering my list within the cookbook link:
When I hover over cookbooks just below the food.com my list of cookbooks comes up. I want this list in alphabetical order. Is that possible?

Reordering the cookbooks is still buggy - if you reorder them, it does not stick. It is on the list of things to fix, but no ETA.

I have read your instructions for deleting a recipe from my cookbook. It says, click on the blue arrow. The arrow is green not blue and when I click on it, remove is not an option. It does say I can add the recipe to my cookbook which is strange because it is already in my cookbook. Also, there is no trashcan icon anywhere on the page. How can I get rid of recipes I have tried and did not like?

Apologies, Ellen. Those directions were written for an old incarnation of the site.

To delete recipes: Open your cookbook. Click on SELECT near the bottom of the description of the recipe you wish to remove. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on REMOVE. You can delete multiple recipes on a page, but only on one page at a time.

Okay, thanks it worked!

I haven't played with my cookbooks since the days of RecipeZaar, but decided I want to cook more so am back and cleaning them up. I had them in 'My Order' that worked for me, and with RZ you could drag them into the order you wanted and it would stick.

It doesn't seem like you can do that anymore. My new cookbook is listed first, and I want it to be next to it's twin (I do winners & untried cookbooks for every category).

I hate to make them alphabetical since I like the game cookbooks up at the top of the list.

Is there a way to pick your order now that it's Food.com?

Reorder them any way you want, but remember to save your changes. Reorder My Cookbooks is right under the caption - mine is duonyte's 38 Cookbooks - click that, reorder as you like, then click I'm Done Reordering

Thanks for the reply. I found the link and I'm all set!

Hello, everyone!

I wrote a cookbook devoting Ukrainian cuisine. How can I add it to this site?

[Molly53]

Hi, Nikita! Welcome to our forums.

There isn't a way to download an entire cookbook's recipes into the db. Each recipe will need to be typed in individually.

Hi friend you have given a good information for every body.. Thanks a lot..

Hmmm... It all seems good but when I click on my cookbook to save a menu... Nothing happens! I am new here and have no clue how to save a recipe yet. Everytime I click on where it says cookbook, nothing happens at all.

HELP!
