Are we not able to set our goals until Jan 1st? Or am I not accessing the challenges correctly? I'm kinda excited to start putting some numbers in. :)

It has been suggested in the Feedback group that access be given earlier, but this change has not happened.

You have to wait until 1 January.☻

Thanks! Just wanted to make sure it wasn't a matter of user ignorance (i.e. my ignorance). :)

Hi! I was deciding if joining the Goodreads Authorization challenge or not, but the link doesn't seem to work.

[Elle]

Works for me?

Really? I can't click on it!

I am sorry that you are experiencing this problem.

Hmmm. I just tested the link, both by name and subject and cannot recreate a failure.

I don't know what else to try. Perhaps it is your internet connection?

I hope that you get it working, we'd love to have you join us!☺

Well, in this case it's just my problem; I thought it wasn't working for everyone. I'll try it later with my ipad and my smartphone and see if it works.

Thank you Louise-Lesley and Almeta!

I just joined up for 2 challenges: eDingus and Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Hopefully I can make some progress this year in those areas.

Hi!I can view the challenge and all the participants, but it's the link in the description that doesn't work for me ("Authors on Goodreads").
I've tried also with my iPad, but it's not working :(

OH MY!!!

You are correct. It was not working. I was not understanding what link you were trying.

Fixed now.☻

[Elle]

That was the link I tried originally and it worked well for me?

Random.

[Stefania]

I just realised I didn't specify which link I was talking about, sorry! :)

[Stefania]

Now it's working and I've entered the challenge :)
