QUESTION:

"I've been using Cook'n for almost 20 years and absolutely love it. There have been so many updates and new features that it's hard to keep up so if my requests below are already addressed - Well Done!

I'm just starting to utilize categories and think it's a great shortcut tool. Is there a way to bulk add categories to chapters/recipes? If not, adding that tool to the Details area would be handy." - Holly H.

ANSWER:

Hi Holly,

Wow—thank you so much for being a loyal Cook’n user for nearly 20 years! That’s incredible. We love hearing from long-time customers like you, and it’s awesome to know you’re still discovering new ways to use Cook’n.

To answer your question: yes, you can bulk add recipes to a category. Just click the first recipe in a chapter (for example, the first recipe in Desserts), then Shift-click the last recipe in that chapter to select them all. Next, simply drag the selected group to the Desserts category, and all of them will be added at once.

Pretty handy, right?

Thanks again for your kind words and for taking the time to share your ideas—suggestions like yours help make Cook’n better for everyone!

Warm regards,
Dan
