Added the above today but don't know how to amend layout.  The sub-headings, eg  Base, First layer etc seem to have attached themselves to the bottom of the ingredients or instructions above them, rather than to the top of those below them.  Can't work out where I have gone wrong as done from the RB.  BTW I do have photos but they are a bit naff.  Will be making again this week thought so will take some more (and maybe serve with violet ice cream so I can get a photo of that at last).
 
 
 
Just one thing re your Chef:Talk page, you still have comment saying click on top right to talk to you, but that seems to have disappeared since new layout. JB xx
 
 
 
Hi
 
 
 
 
 
The layout seems fine on all revisions you've made. (I copied the RB data to my login and viewed all as if creating the recipe myself).  The order comes out exactly as in the RB and as I would expect.  The new layout makes headings look of a lower priority than than normal bold text, do you think I should amend the sub-ingredients to one of the headings (heading 4).
 
Eg:
 
 
 
'''Bold text'''
 
 
 
=Heading 1=
 
 
 
==Heading 2==
 
 
 
===Heading 3===
 
 
 
====Heading 4====
 
 
 
=====Heading 5 =====
 
 
 
======Heading 6======
 
 
 
I've just had a thought, it might be that banner ads are borking the layout.  I'll save this and logout to try with banners.
 
 
 
Nope - not the banners. :-)
 
 
 
=Example=
 
===Method===
 
{{RecipeMethod
 
 
 
}}
 
====For the base:====
 
{{RecipeMethod
 
| Crush the biscuits 20 seconds / Speed 5-7-10
 
| Add the [[Butter|butter]] in pieces, and the [[Milk|milk]] 2 minutes / 70 [[Degrees|degrees]] / Speed 3 (you will need to scrape down the inside of the bowl at some stage)
 
| Grease a loose bottomed tin, and line it with the mixture, smoothing it down, then place in the [[Fridge|fridge]]
 
}}
 
====For the 1st layer:====
 
{{RecipeMethod
 
| Break the plain [[Chocolate|chocolate]] into pieces and place in the bowl with the [[Sugar|sugar]], [[Milk|milk]], [[Cream|cream]] and cuajada 7 minutes / 90 [[Degrees|degrees]] / Speed 5 (I found that in my cold British kitchen, it needed an extra minute)
 
| Tip onto the [[Biscuit|biscuit]] base and put in the [[Fridge|fridge]] until it has set
 
}}
 
====For the 2nd layer:====
 
{{RecipeMethod
 
| Without washing the bowl, break the [[Milk|milk]] [[Chocolate|chocolate]] into pieces and place in the bowl with the [[Sugar|sugar]], milk, [[Cream|cream]] and cuajada 7 minutes / 90 [[Degrees|degrees]] / Speed 5 (again, an extra minute may be required)
 
| Drag a fork over the top of the previous layer to make ridges to [[Help|help]] the following layer stick and not run.
 
| Tip the [[Milk|milk]] [[Chocolate|chocolate]] mixture into the tin, carefully spreading it evenly (without prodding) using a [[Spatula|spatula]] or reverse side of a spoon.  Take it to the [[Fridge|fridge]] again to set.
 
}}
 
====For the 3rd layer:====
 
{{RecipeMethod
 
| Makes more ridges over the 2nd layer, wash the bowl well so that the colours do not mix.
 
| Break the white [[Chocolate|chocolate]] into pieces and place in the bowl with the [[Sugar|sugar]], [[Milk|milk]], [[Cream|cream]] and cuajada 7 minutes / 90 [[Degrees|degrees]] / Speed 5.
 
| Tip into the tin and [[Refrigerate|refrigerate]] for several hours.
 
| Once chilled unmould it from the tin.
 
| It can be [[Frozen|frozen]] whole, but do not cut beforehand or it may become gooey.
 
}}
 
 
 
=A question for you Julia=
 
 
 
What's your opinion of the 'drawings' added by User:Avergara. (see https://www.cookipedia.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Special%3ARecentChanges ) I'm not sure what they bring to a page that a photograph cannot.  I'm also not happy that they are not CC licenced as that's the whole ethos of CP.  Would love your thoughts.

It is not so much the size of the headings, but where they are positioned.  It would be ideal to have them bold but for example in the ingredients list, the 'For the 1st layer' appears much closer to the  '20g milk' in the previous section than it does to the ingredients to which it relates below. The layout you have done above (in spite of the lack of bold) looks much neater.
 
 
 
Re drawings, I spotted them earlier.  Not keen, but thinking of CP as a Wiki thingy, in theory I suppose people can add what they like (so long as it isn't offensive or anything and is food related).  It's tricky.  I agree with you re CC, but at the same time, I think it depends on where the drawings originated.  If someone had given him / her permission to use them on CP and not elsewhere, then that person should at least be acknowledged.  Likewise if they are CC elsewhere, then the  CC licence type should be given.  If they are the uploader's own drawings then I suppose he can do what he likes especially if he only wants them to be on CP, in which case there should be a link to contact him if in case anyone wants to ask permission to reproduce.  Sorry, I haven't been very helpful :-(
 
 
 
Sat here just wondering what time the shop opens to get a bottle of cider (for sous viding brisket).  Going to feel a bit embarrassed buying it at this time of the morning though :-( JB xx
