Thank you! Session drummer? I am a private studio guitarist/pianist. Power to the music baby!
I want to let whom ever it might concern know that as far as making things easier (I was reading past post about issues with not specifically naming and correctly identifying flavors when more than one make up a recipe).
So I have gone back and made sure all of my recipes flavors are spelled out correctly. I put them in the order that the recipe lists them, along with each % respective to the total Mil value of the recipe. For example, if I am making Sweet cream and NY cheesecake it will say only those flavors, enumerated then by the Sweet cream % i.e. 5:70 followed by 10:70 (respective to the NY Cheesecake 10.)
Iāve noticed since doing this that my flavors and recipes come up within searches much better and one can look at the numbers and quickly decide or move on you see? that is without having to go into each recipe. I am open and teachable for any suggestions or ideas to make it better. Iām in data analytics and have found that these quick guides such as when customizing Tableau etcā¦help a lot with efficiency.
Take it easy, session drummer!

Dude, just took a quick peek. FIELD LENGTH. You do get truncation on some of your listings.
"Banana n bread/Cheesecake/Cinnamon crunch/Strawberries & Cream (8:70-2.5: "
Because itās 70 ml, you might wanna go with volume right after that open paren like (70 8:2.5:1:5) or something like that. And then what happens when the number of flavors alone fill the length
"Cheesecake(graham crust)/Custard premium/Strawberries & cream/Sweet cream ( "
See what I mean?
Because this is really only of benefit to you, you might wanna just create your own shortforms like SB for strawberry. BNB for banana nut bread.

First, of all, Big Vape- thank you very much for your insight and taking the time to take a look; much appreciated.
So I started the way you suggested when I first came around to this great site. However, and I may be misconstruing the context of two different things, but, I was instructed to be careful or mindful of the fact that people search for flavors by their proper spelling which could create mix ups for flavors abbreviated differently everywhere. Or, I would have a recipe name, and that did not work as this site is supposed to help not hinder people in selecting relevant recipes, ya know? I do get thatā¦both of those points. I have attempted to address these concerns in my systemā¦
Regarding your suggestion on the volume thing. You do realize the numbers represent individual % and are (each said flavor % in said recipe) then followed by the ml amount made? I ask this because you suggested if I am correct here, that I put the volume in front of the other numbers? I can np. Whatever you guys think I am easy bro.
I see you notice the length on some and yes a couple pass the point of discernable info. Overall with the full names of the flavors for ease of search criteria, and the amounts given what do you think? Should I try another way?

D. Sims, you are the man! I am truly taken aback here. Thank you for the heavy lifting on this and I certainly owe ya one, so what comes around my friend! Na, anyway I do appreciate ya and again I was unsure when I got into the flavor stashing etcā¦and as a result, yeaā¦kind of disaster lol. But thanks again; it is rare these days to find cool stuff like doing something for somebody out of kindness. You are a good human bro.
I will do some thinking on simplifying my system again overall and see what comes outā¦it may take me a bit as work has got me up to here- like all of usā¦but listen, take care bro!

Big Vape I was re-reading your advise here for me a while back and I see where I missed the mark on your comment back then. I was finishing up major projects so I guess that explains how I got it wrong. I get what you are saying and how everything you described is relevant and should be modified and will give it a go to make things easier. I do apologize for sounding hubris if that is what it came off as on my reply. Text give no emotional weight but ones perceived guess right? Trust me brother, I welcome all advice and really appreciate everyone here who have been very kind indeed.

There are already 2 different ways at least to search for recipes by flavor name built in for users. Search by flavor stash, and what can I make. And a quick look of all flavors of a recipe by clicking the āiā (on desktop) just preceeding the author name.
Everything is open here and you can name as you wish.
