Talk:Recipe book

Naming of page
I don't think Crafting/Recipe book is the best page name for this feature. Either the content should be incorporated as a section on Crafting or as its own page Recipe book or other. –Goandgoo ᐸ Talk Contribs 10:31, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
 * I would be more agree on Recipe book. The page is still work in progress, there should've been an information about custom recipes, tutorials, etc. – ItsPlantseed ⟨₰|₢⟩ 11:11, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Shouldn't it be Recipe Book instead of Recipe book? --Pepijn (talk) 01:12, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

How do one mark this as PC exclusive?
Considering this is most likely a PC exclusive, and not coming to say the Pocket Edition since they have the Mattis system, how do you mark this as specific to the PC version? Holroy (talk) 11:55, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Is it to use the Only template, like in ? If so, does there exists an opposite template to denote that it doesn't exist in a given version? Like a Not template? Holroy (talk) 13:40, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
 * You're right, it's the only template. No, there's not currently a "not" template, I suppose there could be, though. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 15:28, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Is there a way to disable the icon or popups?
Is there any way to turn off these specific popups? I don't wanna see a popup every time I pick up something new. Also, is there a setting to remove the icon?


 * There is not, as far as I'm aware at least. --Pepijn (talk) 02:09, 24 May 2017 (UTC)


 * It wouldn't be hard to make a resource pack to make the recipe book button invisible and make the popup less intrusive (remove the big white box and text leaving only the item image) but I don't think you can remove either entirely. Cultist O (talk) 09:38, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

A section on each item page about how the recipe is unlocked
Basically the title. I think it could be helpful and makes sense to include it on each item page. -PancakeMan77 (talk) 00:54, 1 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I agree! Would you put it right in the Crafting section, or how would it look? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 03:17, 1 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I think it'd work great in the crafting section. Maybe just text? I'm not sure. If any have multiple ways to unlock, then maybe a chart? -PancakeMan77 (talk) 03:34, 1 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Oh, I didn't know there were any recipes with multiple unlocks. I know certain items have multiple recipes, which can be independently unlocked, but I think text could handle that? –  Sealbudsman talk/contr 04:34, 1 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Oh, I don't actually know if there are any with multiple unlocks. But yeah, text could handle it if there was. -PancakeMan77 (talk) 05:32, 1 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I think this is the way it should work: in the Crafting template, there should be a fifth column named Recipe/Unlocking criteria, which takes the data from the table of unlocking criteria in the Recipe Book page. I'm not that great at formatting templates and Lua scripts, otherwise I would have tried this myself, but somebody who is could try and see how it looks. Superspace (talk) 01:55, 13 June 2017 (UTC)


 * That's a great idea! I'm not that good at any of that stuff either, so hopefully someone who is stumbles upon this page. -PancakeMan77 (talk) 04:55, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

Casting Resurrect on this topic. Perhaps we should remove unlocking criteria from this page and instead move them to the pages on the recipes? A single, central, and massive list is very difficult to maintain or use.

A fifth column on the already superfat recipe tables would probably not be a good idea, perhaps the recipe unlocking description would be better as an addendum in the description section? --AttemptToCallNil (report bug, view backtrace) 20:53, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
