In reply to: [Library Bookshelves] Alt text pulled automaticallyGood news, I was able to talk with someone who hosts our website and also works for ByWater, and Aspen does have it’s own API control. He was able to make a change so the error is no longer showing, but my book covers for that bookshelf showed as just grey books. After changing the Image Server setting the cover images did show correctly on this bookshelf, as well as the alt text, but all my other bookshelf covers disappeared. So at least I know what I need to do now, it’s just going to take some work to change all my bookshelves over.
Thanks again for all the help in figuring this out!

In reply to: [Library Bookshelves] Alt text pulled automaticallyHi again,
I’ve set up a public list with Aspen and then a bookshelf using the setting “retrieve items from a web service” but I keep getting a “request URL error: Forbidden” and when I click the link for the bookshelf it says “this bookshelf is empty”. ByWater is asking that I check with you that all my settings are correct as they haven’t seen anything hit their server from the IP address I gave them. Here’s a screenshot of my current settings: https://eldoradolibrary.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Bookshelf-settings-with-error.png
Any help you can give to get this to work correctly would be greatly appreciated. I’m also not sure if I need to reach out to our website host for them to make setting changes or whitelist any IP addresses.
Thanks again!

In reply to: [Library Bookshelves] Alt text pulled automaticallyHi again,
ByWater is asking for the ‘user agent’ string you will send with your requests. Do you have that or know where I would find it?
Thanks!

In reply to: [Library Bookshelves] Alt text pulled automaticallyThanks for that info! I’m hoping ByWater does have an easy solution to add in the missing data for the lists we currently have but I haven’t heard of a great solution yet. I’ll try recreating one of our lists on Aspen and follow the steps you provided to see how quickly that goes.
Thanks again!
