Selecting Page Template

@aum001 – Absolutely. Though there are several ways this could be accomplished, the easiest assuming you want all recipe manager tempaltes rendered without sidebar would be to duplicate a full width template file from your theme and call it ‘rcpm.php’

If your default page template has no sidebar then you can copy the contents of page.php into rcpm.php.

On the other hand if you only want the single recipes themselves without a sidebar you can create a new file called single-recipe.php and put your page template code there.

I will admit that we took a lot of our templating from WooCommerce, so a lot of guides on integrating with your theme or customizing templates is similar/the same.

Also we have not had the opportunity to document this properly, so I will be happy to help you work out the solution so that we can document what works successfully for others.

Hope that helps.

Thanks… right now the Recipes (archive) page is just a running list of recipes. Do you plan on offering a stylized version? Maybe with them presented in a grid with the feature photo, title, and excerpt.

@aum001 – Absolutely, in fact its already partially built in. We set it up to allow flexibility in the template system for exactly that purpose. It wouldn’t be too difficult to add grid layouts via a custom template now if your theme already had the CSS classes you could use. We will include some later if not.

We also have plans for premium layouts & layout switching capabilities similar to amazon or ebay. Extra layouts would include mosaic etc.

I just noticed the notes at the top of the ARchive-Recipe and Single-Recipe pages. They say to copy them into a RCPM folder under my theme. I did that but they don’t seem to be loading. It’s using the default themes instead.

How can I email you directly with a question not related directly to support?

@aum001 – Hmm, let me double check the code itself, it should work though.

You can email support + jungleplugins.com and just tag me in it and I will see it.
