Help:Starting a new recipe

To Add a New Recipe:

Enter the title of the recipe after the cookbookwiki.com URL in your browser. I have done the first recipe for the Egypt Appetizers. You will to the same for the Persian categories

Example: The recipe name is Bathingan Bel Khal Wel Thome

Then you would enter into your browser with spaces or underscores:

http://www.cookbookwiki.com/Bathingan_Bel_Khal_Wel_Thome

If the recipe does not exist, it will bring up a page to enter data about the recipe. If the recipe does exist it will display the current page.

The template on the last page in this document was used to create the recipe. Change the description, ingredients and directions.

Use the * infront of each ingredient to creat a bullet to separate each ingedient.

Also upload an image if you can find one by using this link:

http://www.cookbookwiki.com/Special:Upload

And change the tag in your template for image.jpg to the name of your image that you uploaded. If there is not an image for this recipe then leave the tag as is. Tip on images:

For the image to work use this syntax



The second part "Lebanese Falafel" this has to be the name of the page you created.

If there is an underscore or space in the image name use a space instead.

Example: lebanese_falafel.jpg make it lebanese falafel.jpg



Not sure why it has to be this way, just does.

And the last part of the tag is the name of the recipe & web page you made.

Last add the appropiate category tag under the the see also section.

Example: for Chinese appetizers or for the Chinese soup category.

Here are the available categories. Use the appropriate category tag for your recipe from this list:
