Need help putting a recipe in.

Hello everyone. I'm trying to build a recipe. It starts off fine but before I'm done putting everything in it disappears. I've redone it like five times. Any ideas why this happens?

    Use the old recipe tool. It works.

    Jerome, thank you. Even though I've been a member for a while I haven't been active and am not sure what you mean by the old recipe tool. Could you please explain?

    I put in one a couple hours ago.
    • Food
    • Recipes
    • Enter new recipe
    • Name it. You can change it later.
    • Number of servings. You can change that too.
    • And then just fill out the form adding ingredients one at a time.
    • Leave "Submit to database" on no.
    • Save recipe
    I could add some strategies for naming and # of servings but that's enough for now.

    There are two recipe builders. On the recipe page on the website, on the right-hand side, there's a button that you can click to access the old recipe tool. It's the one I prefer to use, since the newer one is irritating, but I'm not sure which one you were using when the problem showed up. It might just be a temporary glitch, hopefully that's the case and it will be back in working order soon.

    I've been unable to use either Recipe tool. When I click on it my app completely closes and asks if i want to send feedback. I've sent several messages asking MFP to correct. Hope it's just s temporary glitch!
