Since the version 5 of WordPress that uses Gutenberg, every line of ingredient or direction gets written in the database multiple times (up to five times, randomly).
Turning on Classic Editor, resolves this issue, but this can’t be a permanent solution.
Have you considered making Recipe Blocks for Gutenberg and thus changing radically how the plugin works?
]]>I like the Simmer plugin, but noticed a problem a while back, which discouraged me from using it. However, I have just delved into the plugin code and have fixed it, for my own benefit. Thought I would share here.
The problem is that I tend to Crosspost content from my blog to a Facebook Group, and what Facebook displayed as the Link Preview was not what I needed.
Instead of an item named
‘Easy Sweet and Sour Sauce’
it was displaying
‘<span itemprop=”name”Easy Sweet and Sour Sauce</span>’
The plugin was surrounding the title with html code, and this was picked up by Facebook and used to build the link to the article.
It looks horrible and I didn’t like it.
I found the offending lines were at the function add_title_schema at line 237 of class-simmer-frontend.php.
I commented out the lines that actually wrap the title, and gave it another try. I half expected something to fall over, but I can’t see any problem in WordPress, and it now looks great in Facebook.
I know what I should do is leave the function, and look for where it is called elsewhere, but for now, disabling the wrap suffices for me. If someone else has a more elegant solution, I will be interested.
If anyone wants to look at this problem, simply look at the Facebook debugger page, and enter a link to a Simmer Recipe. You will see the effect under Link Preview, but also under “og:description

This topic is duplicate of https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/php-fatal-error-call-to-undefined-function-4/
I managed to find workaround on this, commenting 114 and 118 line of ‘class-simmer.php’
//if ( ! is_admin() ) {
// Load the front-end.
$this->frontend = new Simmer_Frontend;
//}
and 247 – 253 lines
}
//else {
/**
* The front-end class.
*/
require_once( plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . 'frontend/class-simmer-frontend.php' );
//}
making all front end scripts and styles enqueued on admin and thus making function simmer_get_template_part() present at the moment of saving.
We would be grateful if you take a look on that problem and also make comment on
possible drawbacks of this approach fixing the bug. Thanks!

]]>We have noticed that this plugin throws an error on Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool as well as in Google Search Console’s Search Appearance/Rich Cards section. It says that the plugin does not provide the “image” markup. We have set a featured image for the recipes, but the plugin still does not seem to generate this markup. Your example recipes on your website seem to fail this as well. See this link.
Are we configuring something incorrectly? Is there any way we can get this fixed?
Thanks.
]]>Hello,
I am trying to link to another recipe within my the simmer recipe card under “ingredients”. I have one internal link to my recipe, and an external link to another food website. I have tried the and <url> tag but it doesn’t work.
THank you in advance.
]]>Hi There
Not sure if there was a recent update to the Simmer www.ads-software.com plugin but for some reason now my recipe archive display shows full size images instead of smaller thumbnails.
This new, larger display makes the photos look pixelated and only allows for the reader to see one or two recipes at a time instead of being able to look at several on one page.
Is there a way to change the archive display? If not I will need to find another plugin. I am not interested in Simmer private as the archive display was one of the things I loved about the plugin.

Can someone please follow up with me?

]]>Hi, I have been using your recipe card plugin, and it’s great, thanks!
However, the other day, I installed this plugin (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/ultimate-social-media-plus/) and noticed an issue. If you scroll down to the recipe card portion here on my site: https://olivesfordinner.com/2016/05/bang-bang-cauliflower.html, and look right under the recipe title, you’ll see that it’s inserting a link like “https://olivesfordinner.com/?post_type=recipe&p=2624Follow”
The link isn’t live; however, if you copy/paste it, it’s points to the card, with the follow buttons over the title, which I obviously don’t want. I think I understand what’s going on, just not sure how to fix it.
I first checked in with the authors of the social media plugin and they say it’s not coming from their plugin and to check with you. Any ideas of how to get that code removed from below the recipe card title?
Thanks!
]]>I upgraded to WordPress 4.5.1. Maintenance Release on 26/04/2016. I have added recipes to my blog using Simmer for Recipes and other general Posts using normal WordPress features. However, I am now unable to insert links into recipes or blog posts to other existing or new recipes added. Existing links work OK. The Insert Link option in both recipes and posts functions as normal and indicates the link has been added. However, as soon as you save this change to the recipe or the post, the saved version has plain text and no link! If you publish the recipe or post it does not show the link. If you try again and go back into it , the same thing occurs. Can anyone help?
]]>Hi,
I like simmer, thanks for the plugin.
I’am having an issue. The post with recipes simmer hides my genesis simple social, Its a plugin to share my recipes.
How can I fix this?
Thanks
Duarte
I realized that simmer makes a whole page for the recipes so for each recipe I have a post with the recipe in it but I also have a whole another page for just the recipe. Is that going to hurt me as far as google or ads go?
Thanks,
Robin
Hello,
I installed the plugin on my client’s site a few weeks ago and it was working great until this morning when we started get 502 errors when trying to load dashboard pages. I contact our host and they checked the log and sent me this log entry:

I am building a food blog website and I am using Simmer. It’s really nice. Currently the site is on my localhost and I want to export it to the live website.

]]>We’re using a theme called Divi by Elegant Themes which includes a built in ‘page builder’ allowing for us to utilize different sidebars throughout the site. Your recipes, by default, use the default sidebar. So, to try and get around that, I tried using your shortcode method but found that the sidebar also displays along with the recipe content.
Now what I have is two sidebars. All I want is the recipe details/content to display. How can we accomplish this?

https://ovitality.co.uk/recipes/
I can see the list of recipes no problem, however everytime I try to view a recipe (either by category link via the sidebar, or directly) I get a 404 page not found.

]]>Currently testing out Simmer for implementing recipes on local environment. Liking what I’m seeing so far but was wondering if:
A) Is there a way to allow the use of HTML tags such as <strong>, <em> or even breaks in the instructions. Currently each instruction just loads as one massive block of text with no visible way to emphasize certain words or create returns. This is fine if the instruction is short but gets blocky if the instruction is long.
B) The Simmer permalink structure has admins define an Archive Base, Single Recipe Base, and Category Base.
Is there a way to remove the single recipe base from the structure and include the category base?
Currently it looks like “mysite.com/recipes/recipe/recipe-name”. This reads really odd no matter how it’s worded and despite having to define a Category Base it doesn’t show up in the URL.
Ideally admins would have the ability to change the structure to something like “mysite.com/recipes/recipe-category/recipe-name” similar to how we can use /%category%/%postname%/ in the default WP Permalinks > Custom Structure” Settings.
I love your Simmer for Recipes plugin but if the title is too long, the title hangs over the images.
See screenshot – https://bigbearswife.com/simmer.PNG
Do you know how I can correct this please?
Thanks,
Robin
