Recipe Publisher for Fujifilm

by Harmeet Gabha

Description

Fujifilm, FUJIFILM X Series, and X-Trans are trademarks of FUJIFILM Corporation. This plugin is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by FUJIFILM Corporation.

Recipe Publisher for Fujifilm lets you build a library of Fujifilm X-Series camera recipes directly inside WordPress. Each recipe captures the full in-camera JPEG settings — film simulation, dynamic range, tone, colour, grain, white balance shift, and more — and displays them in an authentic camera-body aesthetic on your site.

Features

Custom post type xsystem_recipe with a dedicated edit screen
Full recipe schema: Film Simulation (19 options), Dynamic Range, Highlight/Shadow Tone, Colour, Sharpness, Clarity, Noise Reduction, Grain Effect, Colour Chrome, White Balance with interactive XY shift grid, and camera/sensor identification with sensor-aware field ranges — Film Simulation options are also filtered to those the selected sensor generation actually supports
Two display themes: Charcoal (dark camera-body aesthetic) and Silver (aluminium-body aesthetic)
Save any recipe card as a JPEG image — a “Save as Image” button (client-side, no server round trip) works for every visitor, including on mobile, and always exports at a fixed width with two export-only watermarks: a scannable QR code linking back to the recipe (below the title, or in the thumbnail’s spot if there’s no featured image), and a “Made using Recipe Publisher for Fujifilm” credit line in the footer
Sample Photos gallery per recipe, with the featured image automatically included as the first photo and a built-in lightweight lightbox (prev/next, keyboard and backdrop dismiss)
Paginated recipe gallery shortcode with configurable columns, filterable by sensor, camera, and film simulation — Camera options are limited to models with published recipes and cascade with the Sensor filter (choosing a camera locks its sensor; choosing a sensor narrows the camera list); filter URLs stay clean of empty/unused params for SEO. Filters can be hidden with show_filters="false"
Single recipe display injected automatically on CPT URLs — no page template editing needed
Featured image shown as a square thumbnail inside the recipe header
Configurable thumbnail size and recipe card max width from Settings
Export individual recipes as JSON from the edit screen
Export all recipes as a single combined JSON from Settings
Import JSON — single recipe or combined batch; deduplicates by export code; AI-generated recipes (no export code) accepted and assigned a fresh code
AI Schema download — a field reference file for ChatGPT / Gemini to generate recipes in the correct import format
Object-cache layer (wp_cache_get/set) for recipe meta — group xsystem_recipes

Shortcodes

[xsystem_recipe id="123"] — single recipe panel by post ID
[xsystem_recipe_gallery] — paginated gallery of all published recipes
[xsystem_recipe_gallery columns="4" category="street"] — filtered gallery
[xsystem_recipe_gallery limit="6"] — fixed count, no pagination
[xsystem_recipe_gallery show_filters="false"] — gallery grid with no filter bar

Installation

Upload the recipe-publisher-for-fujifilm folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
Activate the plugin via Plugins Installed Plugins.
Go to Recipe Publisher Add New to create your first recipe.
Use [xsystem_recipe_gallery] on any page to display your recipe library.

Faq

Will updating the plugin delete my recipes?

No. Your recipe posts are never touched by a plugin update.

Can I import recipes generated by an AI like ChatGPT?

Yes. Download the AI Schema file from Settings Recipe Publisher Download Schema, paste it into your AI tool with a prompt describing the look you want, then import the resulting JSON via Settings Import Recipes.

Does this work with my Sony, Canon, or Nikon camera?

No. Recipe fields map to Fujifilm’s in-camera JPEG settings (Film Simulation, Grain Effect, Color Chrome, White Balance Shift, and more), which don’t exist on other brands. This plugin is built specifically for Fujifilm X-Series cameras.

What happens if I import a recipe with the same name as an existing one?

It is skipped and listed in the import results. Rename the recipe in your JSON file and re-import.

Does the plugin delete my recipes if I uninstall it?

By default, no — your recipe posts are kept. Enable Delete All Data on Uninstall in Settings if you want a clean removal.

Can visitors save a recipe without an account?

Yes. The “Save as Image” button under each recipe card works for any visitor and requires no login — it renders the card to a JPEG entirely in the browser and downloads it.

Reviews

Changelog

1.4.3

Renamed script/style handles from the too-short frp-* prefix to xsystem-* to avoid collisions with other plugins/themes.
Renamed Settings page section IDs (frp_display, frp_content) to xsystem_display/xsystem_content for the same reason.
Added object-cache wrapping around the gallery’s camera-model filter lookup query.

1.4.2

Added a swipeable “sample photos” slider at the top of the recipe page for mobile visitors.
xsystem_recipe_saved now receives sanitized recipe data instead of raw POST input.
Renamed the recipe_category taxonomy to xsystem_recipe_category to avoid collisions with other plugins/themes.
Renamed internal JS globals (frpEditor, frpImport, frpSaveImage, frpLightbox, frpExport) to a longer, more distinct prefix (xsystemRecipe*) for the same reason.

1.4.1

Moved inline <style> blocks on the Settings page into the already-enqueued admin stylesheet.
Hardened sanitization of request data used in the gallery filter form, gallery pagination links, and JSON recipe import.

1.4.0

Removed the license-key system and the 12-recipe free-tier cap — every feature is now fully available to everyone, with no locked recipes or purchased unlock key. No recipes or settings are affected.
Renamed the admin menu and Settings page label from “Recipes” to “Recipe Publisher” for clarity.

1.3.0

Renamed the plugin from “X-System Recipe Publisher” to “Recipe Publisher for Fujifilm” for WordPress.org trademark compliance, and added a Fujifilm trademark disclaimer. No functional changes.

1.2.0

Added a “Save as Image” button so any visitor can export a recipe card as a JPEG, client-side, with a consistent fixed export width.
Export-only watermarks: a scannable QR code linking back to the recipe (below the title, or in the thumbnail’s spot if there’s no featured image) and a “Made using Recipe Publisher for Fujifilm” credit line in the footer — both hidden during normal browsing.
Added a lightweight built-in lightbox for the Sample Photos gallery (prev/next, keyboard and backdrop dismiss).
The recipe’s featured image is now automatically included as the first Sample Photo.
Added a Card Max Width setting (default 640px).
Added sensor, camera, and film simulation filters to the recipe gallery shortcode. Camera options are limited to models with published recipes and cascade with Sensor (choosing a camera locks its sensor; choosing a sensor narrows the camera list).
Gallery filter URLs now omit empty/unused params, keeping them clean for search engines.
Added a show_filters="false" attribute to [xsystem_recipe_gallery] to hide the filter bar entirely.
Added license activation and a free-tier cap of 12 recipes.
Sensor-aware field ranges and defaults in the recipe edit screen.
Film Simulation options in the recipe edit screen are now filtered by sensor generation (e.g. CLASSIC Neg., ETERNA, and NOSTALGIC Neg. only show once a supporting sensor is selected).
Fixed low-contrast meta-row text (date) in the Charcoal theme.
Fixed the recipe card ignoring the configured max-width setting.
