Adriano Faria Posted October 31, 2022 Author Posted October 31, 2022 FROM NOVEMBER 1ST TO NOVEMBER 30TH.
Jimi Wikman Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 I love this app, and I wonder how big of a change it would be to be able to have multiple bookshelves? I assume it is a bit complicated, or you would have already done it?
Adriano Faria Posted November 23, 2022 Author Posted November 23, 2022 Yeah, a lot of things would have to change. I’ll take a look in the next “big” update, not in minor versions. Jimi Wikman and SeNioR- 2
EvanDC Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 Hi there - I've just installed this. Looks to be working fine until I go to submit a book, at which point I get an error message with the following technical log ... IPS\Http\Request\CurlException: https://www.amazon..co.uk/dp/1472973569/ref=nosim?tag=thevestry-21 Could not resolve host: www.amazon..co.uk (6) #0 /var/www/html/107505/system/Http/Request/Curl.php(422): IPS\Http\Request\_Curl->_execute() #1 /var/www/html/107505/system/Http/Request/Curl.php(298): IPS\Http\Request\_Curl->_executeAndFollowRedirects('GET', NULL) #2 /var/www/sitefiles/v324652/applications/books/modules/front/books/view.php(111): IPS\Http\Request\_Curl->get() #3 /var/www/html/107505/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(118): IPS\books\modules\front\books\_view->manage() #4 /var/www/html/107505/system/Content/Controller.php(50): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #5 /var/www/sitefiles/v324652/applications/books/modules/front/books/view.php(40): IPS\Content\_Controller->execute() #6 /var/www/html/107505/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(153): IPS\books\modules\front\books\_view->execute() #7 /var/www/html/107505/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #8 {main}
Dll Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 (edited) I don't know if this is a setting you can change, but it's looking for Amazon..co.uk - note the two dots rather than one. Changing that will probably fix it. Edited January 8, 2023 by Dll EvanDC 1
EvanDC Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 Oh great - thank you! Must be a typo on my end. Will go check. Thank you for spotting that. Dll 1
EvanDC Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 That did it! thank you. Next question - should there be a link for people to buy the books through the affiliate link? I don't seem to have any means for people to click and buy anything, which I was hoping for. Oh that's weird - I now have a "Buy this book" button suddenly appeared. Well that's sorted. Didn't do anything though - maybe it updated from Amazon??
Adriano Faria Posted January 8, 2023 Author Posted January 8, 2023 If you enabled the integration, it will add a link to the store to purchase the book.
Adriano Faria Posted January 13, 2023 Author Posted January 13, 2023 What's New in Version 1.3.0: Rework in book view tabs template to display information about the books and not just the cover Add a new setting to control how many books will be displayed in the book view tabs Add ability to add books directly in the book view tabs Add book records to the stock Similar Content widget Script adjustments to handle creation/deletion/diplaying of thumbnails across the app Jimi Wikman 1
EvanDC Posted January 14, 2023 Posted January 14, 2023 Hi there - I've been trying to add some books from Amazon which only have an ASIN number, not an ISBN number. They're not importing. Is there a difference between ASIN and ISBN? I thought they might be the same. Any plans to be able to include ASIN if this is a feature issue which is missing?
Adriano Faria Posted January 14, 2023 Author Posted January 14, 2023 As stated in description, this resource uses ISBN 10-13 digits. No plan at the moment.
EvanDC Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) Ok - new issue discovered which is only apparently affecting one of my users. I've logged in as them and it's not affecting me when I am acting as them, but for her it is doing it every time. She is using the Submit Book button, and entering a legitimate 10-digit ISBN (I know it's legit because when I try it it works fine). The books autofills for her on the submit screen, and she submits it. Then she gets an error message and when I look at the book (it is registering in the database and the book thumbnail is listed and available to be clicked on) I get this screen: IPS\Http\Request\CurlException: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/9781529377989 Operation timed out after 3000 milliseconds with 0 bytes received (28) #0 /var/www/html/107601/system/Http/Request/Curl.php(422): IPS\Http\Request\_Curl->_execute() #1 /var/www/html/107601/system/Http/Request/Curl.php(298): IPS\Http\Request\_Curl->_executeAndFollowRedirects('GET', NULL) #2 /var/www/sitefiles/v324652/applications/books/modules/front/books/view.php(111): IPS\Http\Request\_Curl->get() #3 /var/www/html/107601/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(118): IPS\books\modules\front\books\_view->manage() #4 /var/www/html/107601/system/Content/Controller.php(50): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #5 /var/www/sitefiles/v324652/applications/books/modules/front/books/view.php(40): IPS\Content\_Controller->execute() #6 /var/www/html/107601/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(153): IPS\books\modules\front\books\_view->execute() #7 /var/www/html/107601/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #8 {main} That's the error read out for the admin. When she looks at the book she gets error code EX28 apparently. What's really weird is these are meant to be linking to amazon.co.uk, but the first line in the error message here says barnesandnoble.com. I've asked her to try this in Edge and Firefox as well as her usual Chrome. I've asked her to check Chrome is updated. Only other thing I can tell you is she is using BitDefender. I asked her to turn that off and try again. Anything she tries from her computer ends up with the same error message being generated. When I sign in as her on my computer everything works fine. Any ideas at all? Edited January 25, 2023 by EvanDC

There's nothing weird here. 9781529377989 has 13 digits. 13 digits will create a link to Barnes and Noble as stated in a lot of places in this topic/file. Edited January 25, 2023 by Adriano Faria
EvanDC Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 Brilliant - mystery solved! Thank you. She told me she was using the 10 digit ISBN. I had told her to copy and paste it from Amazon. Turns out she's been entering the ISBN from the back of her physical books!!! So I was double checking using the ISBN-10 from Amazon, thinking that's what she was doing, she though was entering either the whole ISBN-13 or taking off the first three numbers of it, straight from the back of her books. Sheesh! Thanks Adriano!! Adriano Faria 1
Adriano Faria Posted January 25, 2023 Author Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) I just tested and the ISBN works fine: Link to https://www.barnesandnoble.com/noresults/9781529377989 👍 ---------------- EDIT: I will check this is a few days. The link to B&N seems to be broken. Edited January 25, 2023 by Adriano Faria
EvanDC Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 It might be broken for me because I'm setup for amazon.co.UK. Could that make a difference?
ibaker Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Hi Adriano, just noticed with the current version of Books the book cover images are not showing on the Books home page:

Try to rebuild the cache. Also, check if the /uploads/books folder has files.
ibaker Posted May 3, 2023 Posted May 3, 2023 Thanks Adriano, tried clearing cache several times but no luck and there are images in the /uploads/books folder. I added another book into the addon and both the full image and thumb image were added to the folder ok, The image is shown in the actual book page and the thumb is shown on the widget on my discover page but the thumbs are not shown on the books main page i.e. the What's New Block and Random Books sidebar block.
Adriano Faria Posted May 3, 2023 Author Posted May 3, 2023 You have a missing CSS as I told you. I don’t have this issue as you can see on my video installing it from the marketplace. Send a message with an UNRESTRICTED admin account and I’ll take a look when I’m able to.
