I seem to have problems with filter search. I want to search seafood, fish air fryer. I put fish in the filter and it tells me there are over 10,000 recipes. In the search air fryer and now it tells me there are no recipes. Please help.

However when reversing the order by typing air fryer in the search first and then under filter fish, shows 6.

Rinshin, are you searching the entire Library/Recipes? (I can only search the Library/Recipes as I don't have your Bookshelf, so I can't replicate your search exactly if it's just in your Bookshelf.) When you say you put "fish in the filter", do you mean you typed "fish" into the search box, or that you selected Ingredient > Fish & seafood in the Filter By sidebar? In the entire Library/Recipes, I get the same result of 6 recipes when I enter "air fryer" into the search box and Filter By: Ingredient > Fish & seafood, no matter which order I enter/select those two criteria. Here's the search in the Library/Recipes: https://www.eatyourbooks...amp;f_ingredient_group=2


Remember that the search box is looking first for exact matches in recipe titles...which is the only way you can search for "air fryer" recipes as we don't have that specific appliance category. As you pointed out, it's not presently included under the Browse > Cooking Styles list, although it's something we've considered adding. (The Browse > Cooking methods you listed in your second post are Book-level categories, some of which are also available in Recipe indexing -- e.g., Children & baby food, Cooking ahead, Quick/easy -- but most of them can only be applied to Books/Magazines/Blogs in the EYB Library.)

Searching the library
Recipe Types (1,685,939)
Ingredient (6,984,056)

Fish & seafood (37,896).

White fish (37,896). Why is the number the same as fish & seafood when it should be only white fish?

Under recipes search air fryer. Now I get only 1

If filter is all of Fish & seafood (37,896)

Under recipes search air fryer. Get 6

Certainly understand air fryer not being there as cooking style since it is so new. I just like to be able to search those recipes with air fryer method and if possible with major ingredients like fish, potatoes, pork, etc.

In your search breakdown, you accidentally grabbed the wrong total # of Ingredients > Fish & seafood in the Library/Recipes -- it's 219,650, so it's not the same as the # of White fish.

Thank you Deborah for your explanation.

I would also love search by Air Fryer. I am doing it all the time. I end up searching out on the web for recipes since I can't search my books in EYB.

Vickster copy me that has 350+ of air fryer recipes. Some are repeats though.
