Potters & Sculptors - Making Rock from Mud
I added 3 photos to a recipe and the recipe links to the photos. However when I do 'show' on the photo (under our pictures) it says "UnConnected to any recipe"
The recipe is called Ron Roy black #3 EU. How can I change it such that the photo does refer back to the recipe? I noticed all other photos I found with search 'licorice' did not have a link to a recipe either.

This problem seems to present itself only when I do "SHOW" after a search in 'our pictures'. Not when I select one of the results of the search. Odd.
Thank you, Marina for your question,
Tony has been working on the image search feature in Insight-Live. On the main I-L page, when you open the "Our Pictures" menu item, you are presented with a list of the twenty most recently added pictures. If you then hit the "Show" button, you will see thumbnails of all of our pictures, and in that state they are not connected to recipes, but they are connected to the picture data sheets. When you click any thumbnail, the datasheet for the picture, and the link back to the recipe will be displayed.
It works the same when you get the filtered results of a picture search. You can click one of the resulting picture name text lines, or use the "show" button to display thumbnails of all your results, that will in turn, link to the picture datasheets and then to the recipes themselves.
Thanks George.
I think it is a minor bug that the links do not show in the thumbnails and it is easy to work around it. By the way I could not find what the publish/unpublish button at the bottom of 'our pictures ' does. The help on the picture manager does not have that information. Perhaps I should check Tony's video's
