Denim Datta (denimdatta) for 170, Book 2 and 3 are combined.

There exist two author profile under name Martin Goodman, and one is Goodreads Author. So unable to merge these two author.

Book 1 comes under author 1,
2 and 3 come under author 2, and combined.

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #177 - working on this done.

In future, please place MERGE requests in this thread . Also, don't delete the covers without making a change comment as it adds to our work before we can do a merge. Thanks :)

message 176: by Gwendoline (new)

Gwendoline Ewins (gwendoline-e) | 5 comments Please help with checking my attempt to nominate new covers as primary plus help with combine. I think I managed to identify the primary covers, but I may be wrong.
These are:
A perfect wife for Peregrine Winthrop (Southern Seas Series) by Gwendoline Ewins Link: http://amzn.com/B00A45B1DQ
Drums (Southern Seas Series) by Gwendoline Ewins Link: http://amzn.com/B00EDZDV0E
Unexpected Hero (Southern Seas Series) by Gwendoline Ewins Link: http://amzn.com/B0086REMQW
Who Is He? (Southern Seas Series) by Gwendoline Ewins Link: http://amzn.com/B00ATJ5U4I
But the old covers still appear on my advertising campaign, and when I attempted to combine my books a warning message appeared telling me there were already too many combinations.
As you can see, I'm not a computer buff!!! and I'd be grateful for assistance.
Gwen

Z-squared | 8575 comments re 182, looks like someone has done this

re 183, all the default covers match the ones you linked to, so I think you've set everything correctly. I'm not sure what you mean by 'advertising campaign', but you should know that book covers on goodreads can be heavily cached, and it may take a day or two for any changes you made to completely filter through the site, especially for your author dashboard.

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Gwen, all those links are to Amazon - we have no control over the covers that Amazon shows.

For your Goodreads books, using Peregrine Winthrop as an example:
1. Go to the edition you wish to set as Primary (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...)
2. Scroll down on the RIGHT side, below the cover, and there is a link in grey saying words to the effect of "Make this edition primary".
3. Click the link
4. Wait up to 48 hours for the change to propagate across the system.

Greta | 127 comments HI !!!
Can you combine
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
with
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks!!!

Is there a tutorial to know how to combine? I didnt find it. THanks!!!


message 184: by Eline (new)

Eline (justamistake) | 151 comments Done 189. First one of 190 seems to be combined already. I did the other two.


message 185: by Eline (new)

Eline (justamistake) | 151 comments Edit: somehow I'm not able to combine the last one of 190. One is on the first page and the other is on the second page. And Goodreads keeps telling me that I should select at least two works. I tried many times, but somehow I can't combine them.


message 186: by Greta (new)

Greta | 127 comments Thanks Eline!!
Can you tell me how can I do it myself so as not to bother you?
I can now enter to "combine",but I see the author and his books and I dont know what to do in that instance.-

Meanwhile, pls combine
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
with

thanks!!!

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments #193 done!

Greta: Only librarians can combine, I'm afraid. But we don't mind as this is a large part of our job!


message 188: by Emy (last edited Feb 08, 2014 11:56AM) (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Work around for combining when on different pages:

0. Make sure they both have identical authors!
1. Edit each book and add something to the title field, e.g. your initials
2. Save and go to the Combine page
3. Search for the thing you put in the field (initials, 123 or whatever)
4. Combine
5. Re-edit both books to remove your additions to the title field.


message 189: by Eline (new)

Eline (justamistake) | 151 comments Thanks Emy. It worked. 190 is done now.


message 190: by Greta (new)

Greta | 127 comments Thanks again, Eline.
Having more than 70 books doesnt convert me in a librarían?

Pls combine

with

THANKS AGAIN!!!


message 191: by Emy (last edited Feb 08, 2014 12:58PM) (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments No, it's not an automatic process - you have to both apply and be accepted to be a Goodreads Librarian, but any registered user may add books to the database :)

#197 done
