If I can find a good API, I can give some thought yes. Friendly reminder, is this still something you’re willing to get set up for me? Adriano Faria 1

AndreasW2000 Posted November 9, 2020 Posted November 9, 2020 What does "renewal 20$ per year" mean? Will it stop working one year after purchase, or is this renewal fee for support and updates only?

You only won't be able to download new versions or request support.
penguinstyles Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 @Adriano Faria, I just noticed that searching via ISBN does not currently work. Is this something you can add in on the next version?

penguinstyles Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 @Adriano FariaSorry, that's my bad. I didn't mean when adding new books. I meant when using the global search bar. For example, when searching for "Ready Player Two" I get the following: But when I search for "1524761338" (the ISBN for "Ready Player Two"), I get this:
Adriano Faria Posted November 10, 2020 Author Posted November 10, 2020 IPS4 only search for the title and description. That’s not a problem of Books app.
penguinstyles Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 Sorry again. Could you remove the validation on the publication date when creating/editing books? For example, "The Thorn of Emberlain" doesn't come out until next year, however, I'm unable to add 2021 as the publication date without seeing the following error.
Adriano Faria Posted November 10, 2020 Author Posted November 10, 2020 Ok, next version. penguinstyles 1
CoffeeCake Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 There are some issues on mobile, where the text overlaps in the list of categories on the main page. Would this be something you'd be able to correct, @Adriano Faria?
Adriano Faria Posted November 18, 2020 Author Posted November 18, 2020 Could you please post a screenshot?
Adriano Faria Posted November 18, 2020 Author Posted November 18, 2020 Thanks. I’ll take a look to see if there’s anything else and will update it later this week.
Adriano Faria Posted November 19, 2020 Author Posted November 19, 2020 What's New in Version 1.1.3 Removed restriction of current year in Publish Date when adding a book so you can add books that will be published in a future date Fix and enhancements in several templates Drop columns from core tables to meet new marketplace rules
CoffeeCake Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) @Adriano Faria, when trying to create a bookshelf, we get the following error: OutOfRangeException: (0) #0 /path/to/ips/applications/books/modules/front/books/bookshelves.php(27): IPS\Node\_Model::loadAndCheckPerms(1) #1 /path/to/ips/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(101): IPS\books\modules\front\books\_bookshelves->manage() #2 /path/to/ips/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(152): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #3 /path/to/ips/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #4 {main} Also, it would be nice if you trimmed the ISBN input before hitting the Google Books API to remove leading and trailing whitespace.

CoffeeCake Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 Just now, Adriano Faria said: There’s a dummy category (shelf) automatically added on app install. Have you deleted it directly on DB? There’s no way to delete via app. Nope. We have not made any database modifications.
Adriano Faria Posted November 20, 2020 Author Posted November 20, 2020 Just now, Paul E. said: Nope. We have not made any database modifications. Can you check if the record is there? Only one ID (1). Table books_shelf or shelves, not sure as I’m not on my PC now.
CoffeeCake Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 books_bookshelves is empty, with no records.
Adriano Faria Posted November 20, 2020 Author Posted November 20, 2020 That’s the problem. It can’t be deleted via app. I’ll post the query to add the record back as soon as I reach my PC. 👍 Will also add a friendly message for this situation.
CoffeeCake Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 Another thing we noted, that it would be nicer to take a larger version of the cover other than the thumbnail from the Google API. When clicking on images where the cover came from the API call, we have a tiny version compared to the larger versions from manual uploads in testing. I see this is hardcoded in the API call, but that Google provides options for other sizes. It also might be nice to have an explicit search option, where the user presses a button to search against the Google API (rather than as a surprise when losing focus on the input). From a UX perspective, it's not apparent at all that a search is happening, especially if a match isn't found.
