message 404: by Amy (new)

Amy Elizabeth | 24 comments Hello, could you please combine the following editions into Cut and Run (Aspen Eyes #1)? The cover image should be the one with the title in blue, not white.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Also the sequels:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

and

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

These should read Indian Summer (Aspen Eyes #2), and Showdown (Aspen Eyes #3), respectively, with the Kindle edition as the cover. Thanks for your help!

Z-squared | 8575 comments re 469, looks like they were already combined. Do you mean merge? If so, please be aware that Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers because users like to shelve the edition that matches the one they own. Instead, we make alternate cover editions (ACEs), which a librarian has already made for you here:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

As the author, you have the ability to set the default edition to whichever cover you'd prefer. To do so, follow the instructions here:

https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

Librarians cannot set the default edition for you.

I also adjusted the titles of all three books to appear as you'd prefer.

Amy Elizabeth | 24 comments re 470 - Thank you, I was not aware of any of that. Thanks for your help!


message 408: by Rene (new)

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments Thank you julia I would dearly appreciate your help... I dont know why it combined all four books into one...I would love help adding the ISBN.. Im just so terrified to touch anything now with the mess it was in... And when I went to add Done Deal as a giveaway it considered it a 'new' book because I put the ISBN and it didnt recognize it. Im not sure if they will pick that up or leave it with no pic/etc...

Done Deal ISBN 978-1495266188
Broken Image ISBN 978-0692233856
Bishop Street ISBN 978-1495374715

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments Julia... I lost all my reviews on the books... it shows 0 reviews... how do we change the reviews back?


message 410: by Rene (new)

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments Thank you Thank you Thank you... all the reviews are still on Searching4 .... I honestly dont know how that happened... I just went to put in the ISBN and it said it combined all the books... when I went to look... zapp.... what about the reviews? Will those go back too? It did for Bishop Street... but shows 0 on Done Deal and Broken Image... and Searching4 has them all.. Thank you ....

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments Thank you dearly, Julia.


message 412: by Rene (new)

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments I'm so sorry this caused you stress also... so you have also posted to another thread for help? This is crazy and you can problably see why some of us deal with frustration with this site. I just hit combine the ISBN/ebook for Done Deal and it combined all of them into Searching4... crazy stuff... and now it has all the reviews... Bishop does have its reviews... Will I be hearing from you or another person?

I wasn't sure what to do about the difference in author's names. Thanks


message 421: by Rene (new)

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments Julia.... Thank you for your help yesterday. UPDATE: The reviews were replaced to the 3 book (but not there stats 0-reviews 0-ratings Searching4 still has all of the books reviews... and none have the ISBN... Do I still need to keep my 'patient' hat on? This is such a mess and I'm really frustrated.


message 424: by Rene (new)

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments Hello Julia... Update... Broken Image looks okay but is missing 4 reviews... Bishop Street is okay... Searching4 is okay.... Done Deal shows 0 reviews 0 ratings but has most of them posted.... so it looks like most of it is almost back. I would like someone to combine the ISBN/ASIN together on all the books... I am terrified to touch a thing... I know this has been a nightmare... I sincerely appreciate the help....


message 425: by Renske (new)

Renske | 12223 comments As already said, it can take a few days before every shows correctly.
I refreshed the stats of 'Done Deal'


message 426: by Rene (new)

Rene Schultz (rened) | 13 comments Julia.... Thank you so very much.... this website can be very difficult, but its so nice to have all of you to help... especially when you are technology challenged like myself...lol. It looks about normal now and I will take your advice and have someone explain the giveaway now I have the ISBN's up! Thank you!


message 428: by Scott (new)

Scott | 9138 comments This book:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

looks like a recent bad import and I believe it to be a duplicate of this one:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The bad one has no reviews so it is probably okay to delete it, but I wanted to run it past other librarians first.

I must have done something wrong, but I don't see the first one on the combine page

Thanks

Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 6993 comments 514 By the time of you request I didn't find it on the combine page either, but it was there now, so I combined it.

515 done.

Rikke Simonsen (melianosia) | 3 comments I tried but I can't seem to combine these two books and I'm getting kinda frustrated.

Yes you are! Okay, I will remember that ;) Thanks!


message 442: by Roee (new)

Roee Yaron | 11 comments Hi,
One of the editions of this book should be deleted:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
(They are the same)
And then be merged with this one:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Couldn't do it my self because of too many reviews, a super-librarian is needed.
