Trouble with putting recipes in manually

Is anyone having trouble with this? After I enter ingredients and directions, I click the save button, but nothing happens. Frustrating!

    I don't think it will work if you have directions included. You need to list only the ingredients and measurements. One ingredient per line. I also found that using decimals works better than fractions. So, 1/4 is entered as .25 Also, you have to choose a serving number. If I remember correctly, only 1 serving doesn't work well. Especially if the amounts in the recipe are large. (Like 1 cup of peanut butter.) It seems to know if the serving number is plausible. Good luck!

    Yes mine is having problems too, but I'm getting "Trouble processing the request" error. Hoping it'll snap out of it because I'm tired of dealing with tech support.

    I only add recipes on the phone app. Adding them on the actual website is a nightmare

    See I think it's the opposite. I hate the app (for Android) and only use it in emergencies.


    OP mine is working now. Try again, but clear your cache first.
