Ginny Fanthome (goodreadscomginny_fanthome) | 5 comments Hello:

I have tried a number of different ways to add my Shopify store so people can buy a copy of my book, but nothing is working. If you look on my profile settings, you will see the many different ways I have attempted to do this. Please don't send me to a page on how to edit my Account Settings page as this is where I have been trying to make these changes but nothing is working. I must admit, the instructions on how to add a new link are very minimal and confusing. Please help!

Camilla | 340 comments Ginny, you don't have an author profile yet. There is the author profile with the same name here Ginny Fanthome. Go to that page, scroll down and click where it says "Is this you? Let us know". This way your reader profile will be merged into the author profile.

Secondly, the book links are intended to link to sites that have an ISBN search and have a large catalogue of books (booksellers, libraries, etc). Book links are not intended to link to sites about a particular book. I don't know whether it will be possible to set up a link to a Shopify page, I'm not that familiar with the Shopify system, but I think it probably is unlikely.

This is not a Librarians Group issue since it deals with site functionality. You should use the Contact Us page
https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta... to message Goodreads directly.

EDIT: I see instructions on how to claim your profile if you wish have been listed above.
