message 201: by Ruth (last edited Mar 27, 2013 11:08AM) (new)

Ruth Donald (redonald) | 8 comments I can't seem to update the following listing:

Sea to Sky which has no cover pic. It appears that having a space between the author's initials i.e. R. E. Donald instead of R.E. Donald has caused it not to come up in the combination.

Its ratings should be combined with the editions of Sea to Sky

Thanks!

Geoffrey Fox (gefox) | 4 comments Thanks. That should work, but Kindle doesn't even tell me the publisher name. I'll try later.

Amy Shojai (amyshojai) | 11 comments Hi, I just combined my new paperback edition with the kindle version of ComPETability: Solving Behavior Problems in Your Multi-Cat Household but the book cover doesn't show on the paperback version. Did I do something wrong--how can I fix? Please and thanks for any help!

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments re. #213
Amy,
Is this the same cover as the Kindle edition? If so I can copy it across.

Also, I noticed one major problem - the ISBN13 is in the ISBN10 field so it's been truncated...


message 210: by Catalina (new)

Catalina | 2066 comments #213 - i added the cover to the pbk, now it should be ok.

You're awesome! Wow that was fast. I'd send you a pie but the virtual juice would be messy. *s* Thanks so much....oh, and I'll ck to see if I need to do something about the truncated ISBN.

Oh sorry, my bad. Yes, same cover as Kindle edition.

Kerry (bkmcavoy) | 8 comments My books are combined in an odd way and I wondered if you could help me. I have two distinct books each with two versions (paperback and ebook). The first book editions are combined with one of the second books versions.

Here are the two version or editions of book 1:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...

And here the two editions of book 2: (the first one is the one combined with book 1)

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...

Thank you for your help in this matter!


❂ Murder by Death  (murderbydeath) #218 sorted. It should look right on the editions page, but it might take a bit of time to catch up in other places (not sure about caching delays for separations/combines).

Marius Hancu | 5 comments please make:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

to be seen by:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

as "other edition"
(so there would be 3 "Simon and Hiroko" editions: paperback, Kobo/ebook, Kindle, all referring the same reviews)

and remove:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

thanks

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Combined the first two books, but the other is in a giveaway. We don't delete those as they can cause problems with the system.

Also, in the future, do not vandalize editions with valid ISBNs. If there is a mistake, please request help to fix it.

I've changed the giveway
http://www.goodreads.com/giveaway/sho...

to the new paperpack:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

The giveway will have to be approved again.

Sorry for any troubles

Catalina | 2066 comments # 230 Done apart this 2:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50... - looks like there is a difference of 100 pages between them - I am unsure about combining them

Dave Dee | 2 comments Hi :)
I've added the italian version (La gabbia d'ombra) of Shadow Cage by Philippa Pearce with the "add a new edition" function but they are not linked together.
Is this the right place to notify it?

message 240: by Cam (new)

Cam (camthereader) | 608 comments Hi, I've never tried merging similar books and tried to follow from the help FAQ but not sure how to delete the similar book from the 'other editions' section. The people who added the newer editions just misspelled the author's name.

Original book
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

and the books that I already edited with the correct spelling
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

Thanks.
