I've recently republished my book Belinda Blake and the Snake in the Grass, and I've set the primary cover to be the newer cover. Yet when I search the title, only the old book cover is shown. Is there a way to update that? It should be the darker cover (released in 2023) as opposed to the pastel one shown above. It's basically an issue with the search feature somehow--I think on the page, it shows the newer one. Thanks!

Thank you--I've done this, and it's still showing up with the original cover in my search bar. I'm not sure why it's not pulling the primary cover.

However, since librarians don't have access to that, you can write to Support about it if it doesn't change in a day or so.

Thanks for the help! I found another comment thread that basically said GR pushes the versions w/the most reviews to the top. Not sure if that's right since all versions are linked. I'll keep that thread in mind. Thanks!
The edition with the most activity (reviews, shelf adds) is the primary by default.
