Wich module for a recipes page?

Post by arne »

Hi,

I'm building my first cmsms site: 'http://www.123feelfree.com/cms/index.php' and I would like to add a page with recipes.
I'd like to show thumbnails for the recipes, when you click them you should be led to the recipe itself.
It should be easy for anyone to add recipes, so after the instalment any administrator without any knowledge of css or html should be able to put recipes on the site.

Any suggestions wich modules I could use?

You could look into the Products module. A very simple setup of that module would allow you to accomplish what you wanted.

You could also use the News module - which is quite versatile.

I started working with the products module, it doesn't seem too complicated but I don't get it to show thumbnails. Does this have something to do with the module set up or is this a cmsms core problem?

I installed the products module and I used the {products} tag without any parameters.

I understood that I have to define custom fields to insert images however, when I want to add a field I get a fatal error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function products_GetTypesDroopdown() in /home/feelfrecom/domains/123feelfree.com/public_html/cms/modules/Products/Products.module.php on line 284

This is way over my head so I would really appreciate some answers.

At the moment I am squeezed for time so I can't do a step by step instruction. I may have some time later today to to do a quick Jing video of setting up a really basic Products installation.

Thanks,

I switched over to the cataloger module, and this seems to serve my needs for now. I do however like to work with the products module in the future.
