Shortcodes in Zip Recipes

Zip Recipes will in most cases add the necessary shortcodes automatically, both in Gutenberg, with the Zip Recipes block, or in the Classic Mode.

But sometimes it’s useful to know the the different shortcodes. You’ll need the recipe ID to make it work. You can find the recipe ID in the recipe table by clicking “recipes”. Then you’ll see the ID in the left column.

 

With this ID you can manually create a shortcode. In the example below I have created a shortcode for Recipe ID 10:

Gutenberg:

<!-- wp:zip-recipes/recipe-block {"id":"10"} /-->

Or for the Classic Editor:

[amd-zlrecipe-recipe:10]

To add this code, you need to switch to the “text” view of your editor (Classic Editor)

Then you can paste the shortcode into the page.

 

In Gutenberg, you can click the icon with the three dots (see screenshot), then click the “Code Editor”. Likewise, you can paste the shortcode here.

 

 

For the Recipe Grid shortcode, see the Grid article

 

F.A.Q.

If your license is activated, you should be able to update from the WordPress plugins dashboard. If this doesn’t work, there’s probably a configuration issue on your server. We’ve listed several of the most common causes.

Sure! Just go to your account, then click “view licenses”, then “view upgrade”. There you have options to pay the additional amount.

The download link you received in the initial e-mail is valid for 24 hours. After the link has expired you can log in to your ZIP Recipes account to download the plugin again. When logged in to your account you will see a section “your purchases”. 

Clicking on the ‘View Details and Downloads’ button will take you to a new page. On this new page scroll down to locate the ‘Products’ section. In the products section you can click on the plugin hyperlink to download the plugin.

To install the plugin, you can follow these instructions on Really Simple SSL

When you purchase one of our plugins an account is created automatically. You can reset your password here

If you don’t remember the email you used for the purchase, or did the purchase before the automatic account creation was activated, please contact us and we’ll set it up for you. 

You can create a new password via the following link: https://ziprecipes.net/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

When getting a ‘this email is not authorized to renew license’ error, try clearing cookies from your browser. That will likely solve the issue.

If you click the download link after you have purchased a plugin, you should download a zipped file which you can upload to WordPress. If this is not the case, you are probably using Safari. This is easy to fix. Go to:

Safari > Preferences > General > Open “safe” files after downloading: uncheck.
