Very Easy for Beginners & Advanced Users
As a new user to plug-ons, I was overwhelmed by the choices of recipes plug-ins. I decided to go with my gut and the screenshots vs number of downloads and I am so so happy I did! Cooked is a great plug in that is so easy for beginners! I literally had my first recipe up and published within minutes. I recommended it a friend that is more advanced with recipes and plug ins and now she is a believer of Cooked as well! AWESOME support which is worth a goldmine these days!! All for a free plug in. Just download it! Trust me!
*Finally*! The PERFECT recipe plugin!
Seriously. I’ve looked at (both free and paid) recipe programs til I’m bleary-eyed. Finally stumbled upon Cooked (free version – trouble with paid is there’s no way to test BEFORE you proffer your plastic). But no need here – even Cooked’s free version is…
This plugin is GENIUS! Easy-peasy, works perfectly right.out.of.the.box, yet allows me to easily customize/tweak it. LOVE the shortcodes, easy to customize them. Even the free version has some nifty surprises: checkboxes to strikeout ingredients; change yield (and auto halve the ingredient quantities), lots of handy print options, etc.
Oh, and – my main gotta-have was the ability to include images within the directions. This one has that in spades (nice large pics – that link to expandeds in a Lightbox!) Oh, and did I mention the “Gallery”? The “frosting-on-the-cake”!
Some documentation (apparently “coming soon”) would be nice, but this plugin is so well designed, you really don’t need any.
Thanks to All at Boxy Studio – WELL.DONE!
Best recipe plugin
Use this plugin on a beverage related site and it’s amazing! Best recipe plugin out there.
