Hi Marble,
I have tried to integrate your fabulous 'Recipe Module' into CCK and Views with no luck. But I have no access to the fields you use in the module (or in any other modules for that matter).
I'm using Drupal 6.10. And as such I have no problem using the Recipe Module.
I highlight my thoughts here:

Is there a possibility to create views on the Recipe Module.
Keep up the good work.
Kind regards

I upgraded the module to Drupal 6.x and got most everything working. Thought I should ship the changed code back to the original developer for consideration into future versions.
Also ran the code through the Coder module and cleaned up some stylistic things about the code.
Current location is:

Please let me know when you've got the code, and I'll take this link offline.
Hi Shadow & Marble,
I have been running tests with the Recipe module for my recipe site running Drupal 6.10. I have had no problems with it whatsoever. The yield works as advertised.
It is great, but I need access to the fields via CCK/Views. How is this possible?
How did you place the fields quantity, unit, and ingredient on the same row?
What is the magic trick to do this?
I am eagerly awaiting your replies.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
The recipe module implements its own fields, it doesn't use CCK ones. This is how it has the ingredient groupings, but is also why noone's yet worked out how to use it with CCK/Views. I would like in the future to make the fields all CCK (and get Views integration through CCK), but this is a future plan, and not yet done.
Thanks for that. I've downloaded it and mirrored it at here until we can review it and check it in, but I've already heard one person say it works for them :)
I haven't seen any activity on this thread, or the ones at drupal.org. And I was so eager to see a functional version 6 of this...
I tested the version 6 code, and reported trouble adding new ingredients at:
http://drupal.org/node/227756
Hope that will help.

Quirk that I haven't been able to fix: If "Yield Mode" is enabled, it doesn't auto-fill the amount of the yield in the form. Works fine on printer friendly pages, which makes me think the form API changed in a way that I haven't been able to reform the code to fix.
Believe it or not, this is the first dabbling I've done with Drupal. I just wanted it working on my website yesterday, so I went through and did the conversion, reading the docs as I went. The Forms API isn't so well documented, and from what I've read, the way it's coded should work, but doesn't, and I don't know exactly why.
