Re-launch of .................... :-)

Cool.

I've changed it so that it updates the creation date of the recipe when you change the private flag.

Also, on the flavor details page, I've added minimum and maximum mixing ratio used, as well as the average mixing ratio that was there before. This sometimes gives a better picture.

 

[Sea Green Sky]

That's a nice idea. I like it. Do you suggest updating the date on every save, or just when toggling private?

Good question. I'm not sure

On one hand a new save would imply a change or update in which case the date should be updated, but on the other it would then be possible to game the system by re-saving frequently which would place the recipe back at the top (and thus more likely to get more views & votes).

Maybe enable it for all saves and if it's abused fall back to just on private/public toggle?

Ha. I didn't even consider that it could be abused like that. I think I will leave it as it is for now - I changed it, so the date is updated when you toggle the private flag...

Also, I've changed the auto completer, so a search for "tpa bavarian" will SHOW "Bavarian Cream - The Flavor/Perfumer's Apprentice" in the dropdown, but when you select it, it will show as "Bavarian Cream (TPA)" - Not sure if this will confuse people, I hope not

 

[daath]

Haven't had much feedback on the new auto completer, so I am guessing that people think it's ok

I am contemplating adding "admin notes" to flavors, so that when we know that a flavor is suspicious, it will show up on the flavor details page. If it is severe enough, maybe even show a warning on a recipe using the flavor.

Problem is, where do we get all the warnings/suspicions from?

Also I cleaned up quite a bit of flavors/duplicates.

I've taken contact to a few resellers, so I can add links to where to buy them - But I haven't heard back from most of them. Anyone know of sites that has a good affiliate program that also gives users discounts?

Great work! I really like this recipe site! I suspect experienced DIYers will use it as their personal web recipe box more than anything.

I'm considering jumping into DIY just to save a few bucks on a handful of easy favorites. It seems this site doesn't offer much for the 'just entering' group. I'll spend more time there and see if I can offer some ideas from new-guy, fresh eyes. Not sure if this is in your site goals list.

I checked it out and was looking at some of the high star ones and noticed a lot of them well all that i looked at had no comments. anyway you can encourage people to leave comments on there opinion of the recipe they tried

Thanks I agree -- There are around 750 public recipes, and almost 8000 private ones
I know a few "business" juicers use the site too.

I agree - Not sure how I should encourage people to comment on them tough... Suggestions?

Thank you I will soon go through the flavors and identify and eliminate VZ flavors. The more I do that, the better quality the data is, the easier it will be to find recipes with a specific flavor...

I stumbled across your site a few days ago. Nice work!

Thanks so much

Ah you misunderstand because I wasn't clear. Sorry. I am going to eliminate duplicates and clean up flavor names Usually there are several different names for the same flavor, e.g. "Lemon super concentrate (VZ)", "Lemon super concentrate (vape zone)", "VZ: Lemon super" etc - I will go through them and merge the duplicates into one flavor. That way it's easier to see which recipes uses a specific flavor

I implemented warnings for LorAnn flavorings on my site. The details show like this warning, or this or this (login required) - I credit the sticky thread about lorann flavorings in this forum.

I would still love warnings for other brands! Anyone know where to find that out?

If I learn of any other flavorings that shouldn't be vaped, I'll post them here, but I love that idea!

Check Dan's Calculator. It's got a tab with a listing of flavorings with some comments on each that list possible warnings. It doesn't have all the brands people are using now, but it's a good place to start.

I had a fun discussion in a thread on reddit And got downvoted to bits!

Right now you have to be logged in to see flavor details, and therefore the warnings about flavors.

I have decided to keep the "suspicious/dangerous flavors" list totally public. I just have to find a nice way to do it.

FINALLY, have time to stop back in at a favorite place. Been swamped getting two new PV's and all the gear for them. It's been so long since I mixed/made any juice I'm not sure I remember how to DYI! Not really, but I am running very short on ADV's.

In catch up mode now...
