Description
Hi there,
I'm thinking about one idea that could be very cool for future orientations of the wonderfull Recipe module.
Is to considerate fields as CCK fields. It could be more easy to theme, to integrate with others module etc...
At the instance, all the content with the recipe module is putted in $node->content array, then, this is very hard to theme if you want to put the content of others modules in the middle of your recipe.
If the recipe fields where CCK fields, you could use all CCK feature to organize them, theme them and a lot of others module could be compatible.
Do you know what I mean ? If you have some questions, don't hesitate to ask me.

I really like this idea. It would be great to see the recipe module more integrated into CCK and maybe even views to provide things like a recipe book view or various views of modules.
#2
This is a work in progress. I will post test code and upload to CVS HEAD when a minimum number of features are implemented. It will not be mainstream recipe.module until an data migration path is available.

Thanks for the update brdwor, very thorough. It lets me know exactly what to expect. :-)

I'm very excited about this module but was thinking the same thing about CCK integration. Another vote from this corner!

I'm interested in also and I have a deadline. Maybe we can join forces closer. Feel free to make contact with me directly.

Hi guys,
Did you get any further with the CCK enabling of the Recipe-module. I too am on a deadline with this need.
I hope to get better integration with views soon. What's the story?
Anyone?
Thanks
Morten

I would like to do some testing if I can help with anything.
Just let me know.
Thanks
