Is there any way to show only recipes that I have added bookmarks to in a single book? I know that I can go to 'Recipes' on 'my Bookshelf' and 'Show only recipes...' and see my bookmarks that way but the other day I picked up a book I'd already gone through and added bookmarks to for different types of recipes and just wanted to see the all of the recipes I'd bookmarked. Is there a way to do this? I hope my question makes sense, I almost confused myself trying to put it in to words.

Many thanks.

There isn't currently a way to see all bookmarked recipes within one book.  Though if you search by the book title on your Bookshelf Recipes tab then it is quite easy to scan down the recipes list and see all bookmarks listed - they are blue and at the bottom of each entry so are easy to see.

Hi Jane,

thank you for the reply. Hopefully one day this might be a feature that could be added to the 'sort by' options? Some books that I have contain hundreds and even thousands of recipes. To be able to quickly see all of the recipes I've bookmarked as wanting to try would be very helpful.

If you want to find the recipes within a book that you've tagged with one specific bookmark, you could do the search for the book title as Jane suggested, but then filter using the "Show only recipes..." and selecting that specific bookmark, i.e. Want To Try. You would have to do separate searches if you are trying to locate recipes tagged with different Bookmarks within that book though -- I know it's not exactly what you were asking for, but thought it might help in certain situations.

Thank you for the reply Christine, that is a good work-around. I have noticed that some of my books don't show up in a recipe search, I think it might have to do with a naming discrepancy or having a different version of the same book title that was originally indexed.

Another workaround is just to create a bookmark for that purpose:

View the recipes for a given cookbook, and add a bookmark like 'c.Cookbook Title' to each recipe that already has a bookmark.  Whenever you bookmark additional recipes, remember to add that cookbook-wide bookmark too.

That will do the job for me ellabee! It shouldn't take long to add to books I've already bookmarked either.

Many thanks!
