Interesting, we never ran into books like that in our testing. It looks like some older books don’t have a proper ASIN and Amazon instead puts a ISBN in where the ASIN is usually located, but it doesn’t function as a proper ASIN. This is definitely a bug in MyBookTable though and should be fixed in the next update to MyBookTable. Thanks for pointing this out to us.

Hi, @hbaum,
Can you post the Amazon Buy Button link that you are using that is causing the problem?
Thanks,
~TimMyBookTable uses the “excerpt-book” templates on the archive page as well as in the single book shortcode when the display shortcode setting is set to Summary (it will use the single-book templates on the Default display setting). You may want to use the is_archive() function to query whether you want to display the pagination, like so:
if(is_archive()) { \\ don't display pagination } else { \\ display pagination }~Tim

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Books not yet published?Hi @graemeaustin,
There is currently a bug in the plugin where the Order Now button will display if you have Amazon Buy Buttons attached to the book but the Amazon Buy Buttons are not enabled in the plugin settings. Currently the only workaround is to enable the Amazon Buy Buttons in settings and remove the Buy Button from the book, then disable them again.
This bug will be fixed in the next version of the plugin.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention,
~TimJust to clarify, this is no longer an issue in recent versions of MyBookTable.

Great catch, thanks for letting us know!

Hi @michaelwanjohi,
MyBookTable Taxonomies like Genres are just normal WordPress Taxonomies, so they can be reassigned with any bulk mover plugin, such as the one described here: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-merge-and-bulk-edit-categories-and-tags-in-wordpress/

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Sorted by date (DESC)You should be able to change the global ordering of the books to sort by date by adding the following snippet to your theme’s functions.php file:
function mytheme_pre_get_posts($query) { if($query->is_post_type_archive('mbt_book') or $query->is_tax('mbt_author') or $query->is_tax('mbt_genre') or $query->is_tax('mbt_tag')) { $query->set('orderby', 'post_date'); $query->set('order', 'DESC'); } } add_action('pre_get_posts', 'mytheme_pre_get_posts', 50);Forum: Plugins

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Hide TagsYou can find an example on how to remove the “Tag:” taxonomy indicator from the MyBookTable taxonomy pages here: https://github.com/authormedia/mybooktable/wiki/Template-Override-Examples
You can use the following snippet to hide the tags list from the book meta:
function mytheme_remove_mybooktable_tags($output) { return ''; } add_filter('mbt_get_book_tags_list', 'mytheme_remove_mybooktable_tags');Unfortunately there is no way to disable Linkshare on the older versions of the plugin without modifying the plugin code directly. We can’t really provide support to older versions of MyBookTable, it’s recommended that you try to update to the latest version.
Do you have any more details on why you aren’t able to update to the latest version of MyBookTable?

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] Not found error after updateHi @mattbuchman,
Unfortunately I can’t say we’ve come across that error before. It seems like it may be a permalinks error. Do you see a message on your WordPress backend that says something like “MyBookTable Rewrites Error – You have a plugin or theme that has post types or taxonomies that are conflicting with MyBookTable”? If so, you may try going to your Settings -> Permalinks page and try refreshing your permalink settings.
Other than that, the most likely explanation is that it is some sort of incompatibility with another plugin on your website, there may be no easier way to determine which one other than disabling them all and re-enabling them one by one to see when the problem starts.

In reply to: [MyBookTable Bookstore by Stormhill Media] visual editor ProblemUnfortunately there doesn’t appear to be any immediate solution other than simply not using the plugins together.
We will try to investigate more and see if we can discover exactly what is causing the incompatibility and see if we can make MyBookTable compatible with Fusion Builder.
