Thanks! That is great to hear. It should be totally possible to have the recipes show up as their own posts. The Recipes are just extended Posts. Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner – WordPress doesn’t let me know when new people post.

Try going to /wp-content/plugins/recipe-schema/recipe-schema.php

Try setting the following line to false;
570 ‘exclude_from_search’ => true,

You might have to change something in you theme to loop through posts and recipes.

Thanks, I think I got a fix. I was doing some processing of the HTML in the Ingredients and Directions lists and I need to trick it into using UTF8.

The changes are in the main recipe-schema.php files. I will make these changes in the code and get them upload soon.

On line 927, it should be:
$dom->loadHTML(‘<?xml encoding=”UTF-8″>’ . $ingredients );

On Line 959, it should be:
$dom->loadHTML(‘<?xml encoding=”UTF-8″>’ . $directions );

Thanks Twenta!
I will have to go do some testing. I will be the first to admit that I didn’t test for UTF-8.
Is that for ingredients or does it also happen in the directions and notes? I am trying to figure out if it is a database thing or something in the coding.

I want to create a better system for the recipe templates and language. That might be a bit of work though. If you want to change it around, go into the file recipe-schema-client.php in the /wp-content/plugins/recipe-schema/inc/ directory and look at line 247. You can change the time there. I will work on a better system though.

Do you have a link for a page that was not working? Google’s Rich Snippets tool usually gives pretty good error messages, do you remember what they were?

It could be that you are trying to use another plugin with all generates rich snippets.

I am officially an idiot… I figured it out. I misunderstood what you met. I forgot that there was a Settings link on the plugin page. You are correct, that link is broken. I fixed that and will put up and update.

That is correct way to change things around. I will work on adding in a feature to make it easier to change the formatting.

Sorry for all the trouble, and thanks for using it!

Bummer! Thanks for trying Dan. If you are able to try a clean install, that would be helpful. I am not quite sure what else to change, I am using the code right off the wordpress site. I also have it running up on my site that is 5 years old and it isn’t giving me the error. I am wondering if it has something to do with your hosting setup or .htaccess or permalink structure. Anyhow, if you are able to give it a try it would help figure out where the problem is.

Thanks!

Something to try:
If you are game to do a little text editing, go into your wordpress directory on your server. Then go into the “wp-content/plugins/recipe-schema” directory.
Edit the recipe-schema.php file.
Goto line 545 and replace this line:

add_options_page( ‘Recipe Settings’, ‘Recipe Schema’, ‘administrator’, RECIPE_SCHEMA_POSTTYPE, array ( $this->client, ‘settings_page’ ) );

with this one:

add_options_page( ‘Recipe Settings’, ‘Recipe Schema’, ‘manage_options’, RECIPE_SCHEMA_POSTTYPE, array( $this->client, ‘settings_page’ ) );

I think it might fix things…

Cool!

I have been testing using the Google Webmaster Rich Snippet tool and it hasn’t been showing my any areas. Here is one of my pages.

Are you getting an error when you do it? Do you have a link to a page with the error that you could share?

Where would you like the additional recipe photos to show up? In the Directions section next to different steps?

The way I have been using the plugin is inserting them into a post and then having additional photos after the recipe explaining different steps.
