Looking for a Recipe Management Script

I am looking for a script that will allow users to create a "recipe box" so to speak. By creating a recipe box, the user can categorize and digitize their private family recipes. There should be an option allowing the user to choose whether the recipe will be public or private.

I imagine this will need to be a custom script as I have searched google extensively, with every keyword I can think of.

Also, if you do not know of one, what type of undertaking would this be for me to make it myself in a CMS such as wordpress or joomla. I do have knowledge and experience dealing with these two platforms, and know I can piece together what I need. But I am hoping for a self contained script which would run much smoother.

An example website would be foodfolio.net also, allrecipes.com has this feature on their site.

Thank you in advance for your help!

 

Here are two I found:
http://thinkle.github.io/gourmet/

http://gnosh.sourceforge.net/

 

steve1040, thank you for the links. Unfortunately, thinkle.github.io/gourmet/ is software, and so is gnosh. I am looking for scripts, preferably php/mysql.

 

Easy to do with WP...

hope that helps,

Thanks Nigel,
I actually already own a couple of those themes from themeforest. The only thing is that they do not offer a portal where the users can save and manage their own recipes. I am not really going for a public recipe site, but more of a private family recipe site. I hope this makes sense.

 

http://themes.purethemes.net/?theme=cookingpress at a glance that has a forward facing posting functionality.

Is your issue categorizing things?
Nigel

 

Additionally you could use a membership plugin if you didnt want things visble.

Nigel

 

Its a combination of everything you mentioned. I know I can use a membership program, it wouldn't be too difficult to get it set up with the recipe submission. I will be playing around with some from themeforest. I have food recipes (http://themeforest.net/item/food-recipes-wordpress-theme/1923882?WT.ac=solid_search_item&WT.seg_1=solid_search_item&WT.z_author=960development) that I will be testing on.

I am just hoping for a script, that has all these capabilities included. It doesn't have to be wordpress or any other CMS.

But thank you for your help Nigel. It is much appreciated!

 

There are a few floating around but they look pretty bad.
http://www.maianrecipe.com/
http://recipe.opensourcescripts.com/
http://markerpaper.com/php-recipes-script.php (looks ok at a glance so does the first one)

I try to do most things with wp and or custom post types. I am not a huge fan of having to figure out what someone else was doing code wise lol.

Nigel

 

Yeah I checked those out and was not impressed. I will probably get it going with wordpress. Maybe I can get a good member portal plugin and use custom fields and forms to get it tweaked like I want.

Thanks,
Trey

 

What do you mean by member portal? Folks should be able to edit their recipes etc. already.

Nigel

 

http://wordpress.org/plugins/members/ There are a range of those actually if that helps. I have used rolescoper quite a bit as well http://wordpress.org/plugins/role-scoper/

Though I gather the issue here is largely that a family is essentially a category so you may need to do that manually.
Nig-

 

Yeah, I also thought about making a multi site wordpress with only the one theme I choose. So for instance the Smith family can have smith.domain.com and have it as a password protected site or something like that. I have a lot of ideas going around about this.

 

That is a fairly sound idea. Buddypress may work as well actually.
