ZaBeth  Marsh (zabeth) | 11 comments See: Rose Strickland Mystery series

It looks like instead of creating one series name and using it for both books in the series, individual series names were used for each book:

- Diners, Dives & Dead Ends (Rose Strickland Mystery, #1)
- Last Diner Standing (Rose Strickland Mystery, #2)

I added the correct series name of Rose Strickland Mystery and linked both books in the series to it.

But I can't delete the incorrect series name from either book.

Renske | 12223 comments To delete a series, there is is a small delete button at the bottom of the edit page for the series.
I have deleted the series page with only one book.

ZaBeth  Marsh (zabeth) | 11 comments I don't see it. I just see a button that say, add series.

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Deleted one - the way they are written is correct though.

e.g.
Diners, Dives & Dead Ends (Rose Strickland Mystery #1)
Series: Rose Strickland Mystery #1

Each link is showing that the book is #1 in the Rose Strickland Mystery series, not that the series is called Rose Strickland Mystery #1. The 'missing' comma is just to do with coding I think, so don't worry... :)

ZaBeth  Marsh (zabeth) | 11 comments but both books aren't #1 in the series. "Last Diner Standing" should be #2 in the series. I was thinking that when I look at the second book it would list the series name followed by the appropriate book number for that book.

I wish there were better instructions for how to set up a series.
