Kenneth Silver | 2 comments When I click the buy button below the book (sometimes these say "Kindle" others say "Shop the series") inside goodreads, It goes to a Searcg page for the book title, not the book product page. How do I get it to go directly to the book's product page? I searched Google and one of the responses was about ASIN, which I know you can't edit anymore.

If a Librarian can edit the ebook ASIN, it's B0DG3PBMSW
Maybe that will get the buttons to click directly through to product page?

If not, can the paperback be the default on the button that's below the book? If so, how do I set that? The paperback's ISBNs:
ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 1961532506
ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-1961532502

Thanks for any assistance or advice.

One record does not have it because it was moved to a newer cover edition.

You can set your preferred edition as default if you like. Instructions are in the Help section.

Kenneth Silver | 2 comments Today when I tried the link underneath the book, it did go to the Amazon product page. The only glitchy thing now, is that it says Kindle on Goodreads product page, with no other options in the button underneath the book cover, but when you click through to Amazon it connects to the paperback product page.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/196...

Is there a way to offer Kindle, paperback, hardcover options to click through to Amazon underneath the book cover on goodreads?

Scott | 9270 comments If you click the arrow, you can choose "search for this book on Amazon" which should search that edition.

We cannot do anything about what buttons appear.
