Ok, finally got around to doing some work on the calculator, apologies for the delay.

I have fixed up some admin side coding, I can now process new flavour suggestions, please remember to suggest a URL so I can check that the flavour does indeed exist.

Correct Spelling and capitalization also appreciated.

For those of you who may not know, you can see recipes that use a particular flavour on the flavour page, as well as comment and set a rating, I’ll be tweaking this as time goes on.
