I Added ckbk To My Bookshelf But I Don’t Always Want To See Them In My List   Go to last post Go to last unread

How can I see just my own cookbooks in my bookshelf? My list now contains all the ckbk library, (which is great thank you!) and I can search and see just the ckbk books in my bookshelf. But I'd like an easy way to see my personal bookshelf books. Indexed books includes ckbk. My own bookshelf contains 500 books, most indexed but some not. Is the only way, to bookmark each of my own books? Did I miss something already posted about this?

You can't currently exclude the ckbk books but we do have on our developers' to-do list to expand our Bookmarks functionality, such as using multiple Bookmarks and excluding Bookmarks. You would then be able to exclude the ckbk books from your recipe searches.

Me too on this. How do I delete ckbk bookmark? And will it delete the books I actually own?

If you use the Bookmarks "Remove all from Bookshelf" next to the ckbk Bookmark, only the books that you bulk added when you clicked "Add all to Bookshelf" will be removed from your Bookshelf. There is one glitch, that the books tagged as ckbk after you added the ckbk collection are not getting removed. We will get that sorted, but for now you will need to remove those manually. You can see the latest added books on the ckbk site - the 4th row down "Recently added to ckbk".


Actually, if you can wait a few days before deleting the ckbk books, it would probably be better and less work for you! I will post here when the deletion works fully.

Thank you Jane.

Rinshin - deleting the ckbk books from your Bookshelf will now remove all ckbk books, except ones you added to your Bookshelf separately to the ckbk import.

Perfect…..thank you!

You can also now exclude ckbk recipes from the Online Recipe searches. On your Account page, accessed from the drop-down menu under your username at top right (or under the Menu on a phone) , there is now a Yes/No toggle for whether to include ckbk recipes.

Yes/No toggle for whether to include ckbk...


How exactly do I find this? I've looked under the "my account"  and dont see any toggle available?? I see only the "show only" listing which lists "show ckbk recipes", but not a don't show CKBK option? What am I missing?

debkellie - I'm not sure why you aren't seeing the toggle. We tested it on multiple devices and browsers and it shows up. I don't recognize the wording you give  either - our wording is "Include ckbk recipes in Online Recipes?" and to the left of that is a Yes/No toggle. Your wording suggests to me you are actually looking at your My Bookshelf page, not your Account. As I explained in my previous comment, your Account page is accessed from the drop-down menu under your username at top right (or under the Menu on a phone)

I agree that a way to distinguish the CBBK books from the real books on my shelf is a very needed function.

breakthroughc - if you mean that you sometimes just want to search in your print books and not include the ckbk books, you can easily remove the ckbk books from your Bookshelf on Bookmarks (under the My Bookshelf tab). Then add them back when you want them in searches again.

I think maybe I was too quick to check/test - I was in "my account" under welcome  BTW ....Glad to say the toggle is now working for me ;-)

As I was scrolling through my list of cookbooks on my shelf (and exploring some of the new CKBK books) I started thinking that it would be nice in the sort feature to sort by “Your books” or “CKBKS”. That way if the list with started with my books or CKBKs I could scroll through the new CKBKs first or have them at the end of the list.
