WP Recipe Maker 8.2.0

We just released the very best version of WP Recipe Maker up until today: version 8.2.0. Read on for the highlights and a full changelog or update right away!

Import recipes from Paprika

Good news for those of you using the Paprika Recipe Manager. It is now possible to do an export of the recipes you have in that app, and import them into WP Recipe Maker Premium.

Unfortunately, Paprika does not store recipes as detailed as WPRM does, so you might have to correct a few details after importing, but it can definitely speed up the workflow for those of you using the app.

Learn more about the import from Paprika in our documentation.

Highlight Nutrition Facts in Collections

It is now possible to highlight specific nutrients per item in a recipe collection.

This option can be enabled on the WP Recipe Maker > Settings > Recipe Collections > Nutrition Facts page by first enabling the “Highlight nutrition facts per item” setting and then selecting the exact nutritients you want to highlight:

Once you do that, each item in a collection (that has this information) will show its value for that specific nutrient. With the settings above it could look like this, for example:

You can highlight as many nutrients as you want and have full control over how to set it up, so that it makes sense for your own site.

Order nutrients the way you want

Speaking about nutrients, you now have more control over how they are displayed on your website with the ability to define a specific order for them.

You can do so by editing nutrients through the WP Recipe Maker > Manage > Your Custom Fields > Custom Nutrients page.

This will affect the order of nutrients when displaying the nutrition label as regular text, for example:

Conditions for the Template Editor

With a new conditions shortcode, the Template Editor gets even more powerful. You now have the ability to show or hide specific parts of the recipe template, based on certain conditions:

Field conditions could be used to display a nutrition disclaimer, but only if a recipe actually has nutrition facts.

Device conditions could be used to only show certain features on desktop and display a cleaner recipe template on mobile.

User conditions can be used to only allow logged in users to use adjustable servings and entice regular visitors to sign up instead.

These are just examples, of course. The new conditions shortcode opens up a lot of new possibilities! Learn more about how to use conditions in our documentation.
