I am making two cookbooks using the same recipes.  However, I making the cookbooks for two different people and would like to put different pictures in each of the two books.  How do I keep the pictures the same in one and change them in the other?  Seems that when I change the photo in my second book, it automatically changes the picture in the other book to the new photo.  How do I keep the photos from changing from one book to another?

Greetings,

For each individual recipe you can only have one image for that recipe. If you would like a different image for that same recipe, it will have to be reentered and resaved with the new image (it can have the same title).

I would like to put the same recipe in 2 different cookbooks.  How do I do this?

Christine - You can do that easily! Just click on the box next to the recipe and hit copy!! Then you can move it to the second cookbook!

Just a note to the tech people - it would be great if you could use the same recipe for two different books, but give the user the functionality to edit comments according to the book, rather than making the user reenter the entire recipe.

 

If that wasn't possible, an easy "copy this recipe under a different name" tool would make the process a lot easier.

I can't believe the books we have already bought can not be reordered as they were.  As we make more books and customize for different people it changes the pictures in even the books we have already ordered so we can't reorder the original book.  This is a major problem.  There should be a way to save the original book as ordered so if you want more copies at a later date you can still order it.  I liked the old software better because when we customized a book for someone else we still could get the original book the way it was.  This is a major frustration!

I have followed the instructions above to try and copy a recipe from a previous cookbook to another cookbook.  The recipe has a picture.  It just won't work!

Please give detailed instructions on how I (without re-copying the entire recipe) can move this recipe to a new cookbook.  Thanks.

I'm with you Cyndi - Why do people change things when they work out just great. The new format is definitely NOT USER FRIENDLY. It took me all morning to figure out how to buy JUST the new recipes I entered separately without purchasing a book. Before it was a snap. I also had the same problem with the copying to a new location - I changed the photo - it changed the photo to BOTH locations. I told so many people about your site and they look at me like I'm crazy because they think it is one of hte hardest sites to use ...
