Hi @chantelklassen,

The most recent released version of MyBookTable should support Amazon.ca links. The affiliate link should be generated properly no matter what the TLD of the URL is.

If you’re wanting the TLD to change dynamically based on the user’s location, for example sending people in Canada to Amazon.ca and people in the US to Amazon.com, this isn’t something we’re planning on implementing directly, but we already support it via Genius Link support. As long as you have either the MyBookTable Professional Upgrade or MyBookTable Developer Upgrade, you can simply paste a Genius Link into the field for the Amazon product URL and it will do all the dynamic URL routing for you.

Hi Angela,

Unfortunately there is not a way to change the post author of a book from the WordPress backend at this time.

Thanks for letting us know about this though. We will look into adding this functionality in a future update.

Hi @junglekiwi,

I just wanted to let you know that in the upcoming 3.0 version of MyBookTable we are planning on adding support for Genius Links in the base version of the plugin that will allow you to do this!

Hi @carmenshea,

Hmmm, I see what you’re saying. I’m not sure what could cause this, we haven’t seen this on any of our other sites.

First, I would try going into the MyBookProgress book in question and changing the MyBookTable that it is connected to to a different book. Check to see if that makes the bar work on that book. Then, change it back to the original book and see what happens. Maybe something when wrong when connecting the books.

Also, check in the MyBookTable book, on that page there should be a new metabox called “MyBookProgress” that says what MyBookProgress book it is connected to. That may not be set correctly.

We don’t have an official Grid View preview website right now, but Enclave Publishing is using MyBookTable with Grid View for their website.

Note the Enclave has their book covers and text to display at a larger size than is standard out of the box with MyBookTable, but it will give you a general idea of how grid view looks and works.

Hi @donstevens,

Yes, we currently have full compatibility with Divi theme. This user’s problem was not related to Divi theme, as they still cropped up even when he switched to Twenty Thirteen.

Hi @tylertork,

We appreciate the suggestion, and your viewpoint is understandable, but after a lot of research into this we’ve come to the conclusion that it’s not that simple. We’ve put a lot of effort into trying to make MyBookTable as compatible as possible out of the box with as many themes as we can, but after experimenting with many suggestions like yours it has become clear that any extra style tweaks that we add end up messing up the layout of just as many themes as they fix. There’s basically no standards when it comes to the elements that WordPress themes use to contain their page elements, and many themes add extra DIV elements that add padding or position things in unusual ways. We have some accommodations in place that detect and fix the layout of certain specific popular themes, but these must be done manually on a theme by theme basis. In general though, the least bad option we’ve found is to just let the theme display itself normally and hope that it adds the proper padding.

I see, thank you for clarifying.

This is almost certainly some sort of caching issue. Do you have some sort of caching plugin installed on your site, or a caching system provided by your web host or CDN? If so, please try disabling this temporarily and see if this solves the issue. It’s possible there is some error in your caching system that is causing the cache for this page not to be cleared properly.
