Michelle Pickett (michelle-pickett) | 14 comments Hi, my recently added book isn't showing up when someone searches for it. Also, when they search for my name (Michelle K Pickett) it doesn't show up, but my other books do. The book Does show up in my dashboard.

The book's title: Milayna
Author: Michelle K Pickett

Thank you for your time,
Michelle :)

Michelle Pickett (michelle-pickett) | 14 comments Yes, that's the one. It was just added yesterday. How long does it usually take for the system to update?

Thanks!
Michelle :)


message 4: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Up to 48 hours. If it's still not showing, I'd suggest contacting support. It does come up if you search on ISBN but not title.

Michelle Pickett (michelle-pickett) | 14 comments Okay, I'll give it a little more time and see if it starts showing up. Thank you for your help.

Michelle :)

Rachel I created a new book a couple of hours ago. Why can I not find it? I've used title, then author, then the ISBN (in this case it's for Kindle, though). Nothing.

Can someone help? Name of book is Yours or Mine, by D. S. Craver. I'm out of ideas.

Thanks,
Rachel

Empress (the_empress) There is Diane Craver and Diane S. Craver on the GR. Is any of those two the author by chance?

Otherwise I found the book http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
But I edited it. Please put the ASIN in the ASIN field. the link for it is on the same line.

Also please add the original title. It is very useful for the librarians to sort the books when more editions and translations come out.

And please, no covers from Amazon yet. :)

Now the book comes up with the ASIN wen you search, I think you need to wait bit more for GR to cache it, or whatever is doing.
I'm writing nonsense, going to bed!

Rachel It must be the same person as that is who published it. For this particular book she is listed as D.S. Craver.
I've never had a problem before so...this stumped me. It said the book was created, but I could find it nowhere.
I don't use covers from Amazon, wouldn't know how...not that familiar with this sort of thing. Thanks for telling me, though.

Checked a few minutes ago and book is finally coming up with name.

Thanks so much, though!
Rachel
