Anne Patkau | 93 comments I enter dimensions, but they disappear without an error message.
The last discussion was 2009, and made me wonder if weight always has to be entered as well. I do not get an error message. The dimensions do not save. I entered half-inches as .5, 3/4" width as .75 and have no scale for weights. Even when similar height and width on book-seller source, the info did not show and the source still shows as Amazon, etc.

Dimensions were originally added as part of bookswap. Since that feature is gone, dimensions may not be fully supported any longer.

They never accepted fractions.

I've recently noticed that they are no longer a part of the book data form on the new books I've entered.

Anne Patkau | 93 comments I too see dimensions gone. Hoo-Rah - problem gone. I wondered about the partials, that is why I specified decimal and fractions, and checked what amazon did. I would have expected an error message.
