Cooked – A Super-Powered Recipe Plugin

Description

Cooked creates a dedicated content type for recipes in WordPress, with a drag-and-drop builder for ingredients, preparation steps, time, yield and step-by-step photos. Designed for food sites, cooking blogs and chef channels, the plugin transforms the default editor into a structured recipe card, with star ratings, favorites list and internal search by category, difficulty or cuisine type.

Main Features of Cooked

• Visual recipe builder
  Assembles each card by dragging ingredient, step, time, and media blocks into the editor.
• Dedicated content type
  Creates a custom post type specifically for recipes, separate from regular posts and pages.
• Star ratings
  Allows visitors to rate each recipe and displays the average directly on the card.
• Favorites list
  Logged-in visitors save recipes in a personal area for later access.
• Advanced filters and search
  Locates recipes by difficulty, preparation time, category, or cuisine type.

Benefits of Cooked

• Organized recipe presentation
  Replaces loose paragraphs with standardized, readable cards for the reader.
• More time spent by visitors on the site
  Ratings, favorites, and filters keep visitors engaged beyond the initial recipe.
• Structured content for search engines
  Organized recipe format tends to stand out in food searches.
• Publishing without scheduling
  The entire assembly happens in the WordPress dashboard, without editing templates or code.

Who is Cooked Recommended For?

• Those who run food blogs and want to organize recipes into dedicated cards instead of using standard posts.
• Food professionals (chefs, nutritionists, pastry chefs) who frequently publish recipes and need standardized structure for preparation.
• Food sites that want to add ratings, favorites, and category search without touching code.

How to Download Cooked

The Cooked is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install it in Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file and activate it. After activation, a new recipes menu appears in the dashboard to start adding cards and customizing the display.

Designed for those who treat recipes as the primary content of the site rather than a supplement, the Cooked gives the cards the same level of attention that pages and posts usually receive. Instead of copying loose text between h2 headers, the author publishes ingredients, steps, time, and photos in dedicated fields, with ratings and built-in search for readers to explore the catalog.
