  I have a food blogg and my readers wants to print out my recipes. But when they press the print button the computer prints out everything in a bad way. The recipe is on 2 pages and the picture takes more place than it need to. Pls try your self and you will understand. Is there any way to come around this? Happy for help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That is a nice-looking blog.

  I see that you have enabled the Print button. Was the reader using the Print button to print out your post, or just printing from screen?

  I am intrigued by your challenge, but unfortunately have not come up with a solution. timethief had some good suggestions on this post about printing recipes: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/possible-to-print-only-a-section-of-a-post?replies=2#post-930802

  This forum exchange has some interesting content about how one site did it through CSS, but none of the volunteers actually tried the CSS to make sure it worked. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/printing-recipe-images-only-in-posts?replies=25#post-767173.

  If you choose a solution that works for you, post it back here. There seem to be a lot of folks wanting to print recipes.

  Print Friendly works. You can delete sections you don’t want to print:
  images, titles, posted-by, etc.
