Soooo, can you get your points from the same place you search from? Or do you have to search for a recipe one place, then go find it in the other place to click on the "get your spark points" button?

hey, I got the "advanced" search to work, lol! Now if I can get my points for a recipe I searched, I'll be happy! Can I do that? I don't see a "get your points" button...

I'd try again in a few minutes. I just tried and it works fine for me.

yeah, it won't search for me..."error on page". I keep refreshing and waiting for it to reload, but it won't search. It will browse, calculate, and go to my recipe box, but I can't get it to search. idk why.

Correct. At some point the two will be linked.

and that's different than if I click on the "find a recipe" link in my points after I log in and spin?

Ah- you need to go to the recipe site- www.sparkrecipes.com. It's in your Quick Links on the right side of the page.

OK, I went back there at your suggestion, and looked. There is a search box at the top, but I had discounted it as a general search of the site, and not of recipes. I thought, well, maybe I was wrong..so I put in "pumpkin". What I got is a list of articles related to or using the word pumpkin, a list of topics related to or using the word pumpkin (including if the word pumpkin was part of the person's username), and a note saying there are no "Ask the Expert" questions related to "pumpkin". No recipes.

It's on the first page you come to at the very top.

Hmm....oddly enough, I didn't see any search box at all, which is why I posted this in the first place. I thought there should be one, and if there was, I'd like to know where. If there wasn't, it'd be a good improvement...

If you go to the top of the page and put "pumpkin" into the search box, you'll find all of the recipes with pumpkin listed in them.

Does that help?

Yes, I was refering to SP recipes, I have no problem searching on my other recipe sites. Maybe I'm blind or something, idk, I only see a way to choose between categories ("side items", "deserts") and then I get a list. I want to put in something I want to make, like brownies, or something I have to use, like pumpkin, and get recipes that match that. I don't see anything that will do anything like that on SP.

M,

Are you searching for recipes on SparkRecipes? If not, there is a great search tool there, so I'd recommend checking it out.

Hope that helps,

I need a search box to find recipes! If there is something like that aleready, and I'm missing it, please advise! If not, it's a suggestion!
