I say it is possible, but doing this would be a very non-trivial task that would require an experienced WordPress developer to accomplish. I cannot give you specific instructions on how to do this, it would require working with many different files and creating unique new code that would require research to create if I were to make it myself. You may be able to hire someone to do this for you if it is crucial for your site.
Unfortunately there is no way to provide separate author orderings for different books. The interface to set this up would be too confusing and unnecessary for the vast majority of our users so this is not something we can implement for the main plugin. However it should be possible to do this with custom PHP development if you are so inclined.

Hi privfb, what would you like to change this to? There may be a better solution to your problem than modifying this directly.
Hi Zanti,
Glad you got your problem fixed, could you let us know what permalink structure you were using that was not working properly with MyBookTable? As far as we know it should work with custom permalink structures but we have not tested all possible permutations so it’s possible there is a bug there.
Thanks,

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Categories and paginationUnfortunately there is no way to change the taxonomy url slugs from the WordPress backend. What are you trying to change it to, might I ask? In our experience we have found the defaults to be good for SEO as long as you are using it for it’s intended use case.

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Categories and paginationHi wpdev2015,
There are already automatically created pages for your site for each author/genre/tag that you create to categorize your books. You can find them by going to your WordPress sidebar under the MyBookTable heading and clicking on the appropriate taxonomy, for example “Genres”. This will pull up a page with a list of the genres you have created, and under each entry there will be a “View” link that will take you to the page on your site that lists the books of this type. In this example, the url of that page would be something like “yoursite.com/genre/fantasy”. These book listing pages will include pagination just like the book table page. Let me know if that all makes sense!

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Duplicate books in listingsHey privfb,
We haven’t seen a problem like the one you are describing before, could you send us a link to the pages that are displaying this error so we can see it?
This might be caused be some sort of incompatibility with other plugins/themes you have running on your site, please try disabling all other plugins and your current theme and see if the problem persists.
~Tim
No, there is currently no option to control the number of entries or add pagination. The taxonomy listing shortcode is not intended to replace the regular archive pages (which do have these features), it’s intended to just be a simple summary of the books in that taxonomy. Pagination is potentially much more confusing to readers when it is embedded in another page. I would recommend simply linking to the regular archive page if you want to have pagination.

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Page Title DuplicatedThis is an issue with your theme, which appears to be custom built and seems to be reacting badly with the MyBookTable content and duplicating some of the content.
It also appears that you may have Compatability Mode disabled. Going into your MyBookTable Settings and turning this on may help resolve the issues that you are seeing.

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Can permalinks be changedUnfortunately not, because “books” is a Post Type, while “series” is a Taxonomy, and you can’t mix them together like that in WordPress. You can change the taxonomy to be something like
website.com/books-series/hellobut you can’t normally have it be directly under books with a slash likewebsite.com/books/series/hello. This is basically just how WordPress works. Technically it’s possible to get something like what you want to work with custom coding, but you’d need an experienced WordPress developer to do something custom for your site to get it to work.~Tim
You are using Divi theme on your website, yes? Our plugin should be working properly with a popular theme like that, I will need to test it some more. Are you using a child theme that makes changes to Divi? Do you know if it works properly with just plain Divi?
We found Colorbox to be a lot more customizable and stable than Thickbox for our purposes so we did recently switch over. I would not recommend staying on 2.0.0 though, the early 2.0 versions had some pretty big bugs that were ironed out in later versions, and it would be a shame for you to miss out on our 2.1 updates and future improvements we make. Hopefully I will be able to find time to determine exactly what is causing this conflict soon.
