OK Having looked at your site I can see what you don’t like it.
It looks like the template you are using for books pages uses the full width of the browser, which is why everything is so huge. You can choose a different template in the settings on the MBM Settings -> Book Page settings page. For more info see here: http://mooberry-book-manager.helpscoutdocs.com/article/47-book-page-settings
If your theme does not offer other templates, you will have to use custom css to reduce the width of the content (or change your theme).
Your book covers are blurry because the uploaded files are smaller than how they are being displayed. You can either (a) upload higher quality images, (b) change the layout to one that uses a smaller widget as mentioned above, or (c) use custom css to reduce the size of the layout or image.
If by character of the book title, you mean the font that the book title is displayed in, that comes from your theme. If you wish to change that, you will need to use your theme’s settings or custom css.
Done! it looks better now with the side bar.
thanks a lot
Also is it correct that the amazon link shows like this?

now I have another question. I would love to create a menu in the main book page where people can select by Genre. how do i do it?
thanks a lot for your kind help
cheers
It looks like your Amazon Retailer image may be missing. Check MBM Settings -> Retailers and set the image if necessary.
Creating a menu of genres within the book page requires custom coding and is outside the scope of support provided for a free plugin.
hello again . I am so sorry but I don’t understand what I need to load in the MBM Settings. Is that a general Amazon affiliate link. or a logo that i should get from amazon affiliation site?
thanks for a clarification
best regards

The Amazon logo is supposed to be installed when MBM is activated. If you click on the button to choose a file and you look in your Media Library, is there one in there that you can choose?
oh sorr I didn’t see this reply.
no I searched again among all my uploaded images but no amazon one. There is one from goodread only.
🙁
I put in Amazon images for you. I also uploaded the other retailer images that MBM installs into your Media Library so that you have them if you use other retailers as well. Just go to MBM Settings->Retailers and click the button to choose an image to assign a logo for each retailer.
fantastic thank you so much. I loaded the amazon one and it works perfectly on the book page, but I still have a couple of doubts.
I did it in the general setting, correct? But what if I wanted to have to icon one of amazon and one of goodreads. or what if I want to use the audible just for a specific title only?
I don’t understand in the page setting the function “add to goodread image” what is it referring to?
The other question is, I selected both widget and page, but in the widget I still have the title only ( and the old version, not the nice one that you help me with a new coding) but there is no icon on it.
could you please help me?
thanks a lot sorry to bother..
Apologize for the delay. I missed this question.
I’m not entirely sure what you are asking….
The “Add to Goodreads image” is the image that shows up when you enter a goodreads link in the book page. It looks like this: http://www.demo.mooberrydreams.com/wp-content/plugins/mooberry-book-manager/includes/assets/goodreads.png
(feel free to download that image and add it on your site if you don’t have it for some reason)
I’m not sure what you are asking about with audible. If you have a book that you have on audible, you just add a link to it on the book page. Just choose audible from the retailer drop down. That’s a per-book setting so it will only show up on that book’s page.
I think you are probably also missing the “coming soon” book cover. I’m not sure why your site doesn’t have all the images that come pre-installed with Mooberry Book Manager.

hi there! thanks for your reply.
understood thanks.
I just need your help on my last question.
https://www.boundlessroads.com/books/
As you can see the some books titles are not alligned with the books image. could you help me fix it?
Also you had previously helped me to have the title in bold as it comes out in the main page but in the widget on the sidebar it is still in low letter and it looks weird. Could you please help me to have it in bold and also centered? I would really appreciated it
thanks a lot
isabella
For the widget:
p.mbm-widget-title {
font-weight: bold;
}
For the grid I am not sure why the text is not aligning properly. Nothing I’ve tried worked. You may need to find a web designer who can help you.
