phpMyRecipes 1.2.0

phpMyRecipes is a simple application for storing and retrieving recipes. phpMyRecipes project uses a web-based interface, for ease of use across any system, and a MySQL database backend for storing the recipes.

In addition, fine-grained security is implemented so that the recipes can be searched and viewed by anyone, but all functions that make changes (adding/editing/deleting) require additional privileges to be granted by the administrator. Privileges for adding things can be granted separate from privileges for deleting things. The administrator can also decide whether or not units or categories are modifiable, on a per-user basis.

Recipes are categorized, and new categories are easy to create. Ingredients are added to the database on-the-fly, as they are used in recipes. Unit types (such as "cup" or "teaspoon") are stored in the database as well, and can be easily added to or modified. Unit "plurals" are also handled correctly when viewing recipes (using "cups" instead of "cup" in the right places).

A robust search feature is included that allows users to search the recipes based on a wide range of criteria, including words found (or not found) in the instructions, the recipe name, category, and ingredients list.
