Community Recipes

A Community recipe is an unchanged, like-for-like version of another creator’s recipe on your own recipe profile. It is useful when you shoot with the same settings and want to add your own reference photos or notes while keeping a clear route back to the original recipe and creator.

​

When to Use a Community Recipe

Use Community when:

• Another creator’s recipe was your starting point.
• You kept every recipe setting unchanged.
• You want the unchanged recipe represented on your recipe profile.
• You want to contribute your own example photos without claiming the settings as your own.

If you only want to keep the recipe for later, use Save. If you only want to show which recipe was used for a photo, link the original recipe to your post. A Community recipe is optional; it is not required for either action.

​

Save an Unchanged Recipe as Community

1. Open the original recipe.
2. Choose Fork to start from it.
3. Add your own reference photos.
4. Leave every camera setting unchanged.
5. Publish using Save as Community Recipe when prompted.

The Community recipe keeps the original settings and source connection. Your photos show how the recipe performs for you; they do not transfer ownership of the original settings.

​

What Stays Connected

• The Community recipe appears on your profile.
• The original recipe and its creator remain linked from it.
• People can move from your version back to the source.
• Posts can link either the original recipe or the relevant Community version.
• Starting from a Community recipe later still leads back to the original source.

​

When It Becomes a Fork

Changing one or more recipe settings means the new version is Forked, not Community. Setting changes include a different film simulation, camera setup, white balance or shift, grain, dynamic range, tone, colour, sharpness, noise reduction, clarity, or another supported recipe field. Changing only the title, description, tags, or reference photos does not make unchanged settings a fork. A recipe that started from another creator can never become a Custom recipe because its source history remains attached.

Attribution and Explore

The original-recipe card gives people a direct route to the creator who shared the settings first. Tags, camera details, posts, collections, and community activity can help people find both versions without confusing who created each one. Read How Recipes and Posts Connect for the full picture.
