I am still confused by the "exclusive Shelves": I have created them and I know my friends have created them, too. But when I look at my bookshelves and on their bookshelves, I cannot see them (unless I'm on my own bookshelf (http://booklikes.com/shelf where I can fix and organize things). But I can't see them on the http://AnnaLund2011.booklikes.com/shelf page—the one that my friends can see.
And that is the one I want to go to, when I visit a friend's shelves, to see what she has put in the Never Reading shelf (for example) - but I can't. All I see (still!) is the
Read
Planning to read
Currently reading
And then all the old shelves from goodreads below.
BUT:
If the Never Reading shelf was taken away from the list of shelves below (as you taught us to do when making it EXCLUSIVE) it is now NOT VISIBLE AT ALL to somebody visiting my blog and shelf.

I had the shelf Never Reading. I made it exclusive. It now does not show anywhere, except for me personally on my shelf in dashboard-mode.

This is all very confusing. and not at all what we needed. it feels like I'm being censored again, and that SURELY cannot be what was intended?

Thanks Themis for the workaround. I emailed staff about it a day or two after posting that and they actually fixed it within about a day. Super fast response time.

Ooooh, good! So it was a bug after all -- need to check on my own shelves, too, then ...!

(That's what I get for trying to be forgiving about this being a new site and not wanting to bother them with things I think need to be fixed, I suppose ... I'd just have gone on living with the work-around! :) )

Not getting email notifications. Of comments on posts, or of PMs.

ETA: Using Windows 8/Firefox.

Links to shelves are a bit buggy on Safari.

iPad doesn't display Bookilikes properly on a variety of browsers.

Also, can't click star ratings on Safari browser on Mac Desktop.

Hey all BookLikes book lovers, thanks for letting us know and altering us about all these issues. Here are some of our solutions, some were already fixed, others will be soon :-)

- For problems with rating stars, please clear your cache memory in your browser’s settings and check if your browser isn't using extensions or plugins that could interfere. If the problem still occurs, let us know via email.

- We’ll add “Publish” button in comments to make it work better.

- For publishing post form Drafts, make sure your timezone and post date is set correctly.

- To edit your reviews, click Blog on the top and hover over the post and click Edit in upper right corner OR edit from Table view shelf (edit review link).

- Changing thematic shelf into Exclusive status is now possible from Shelf view and Table view.

- “Reblogged from + link” will be visible above the reblogged text in all theme designs in public blog view.

- Dashboard should show all blog entries from blogs you’re following. If you do not see them, contact us via email with more details.

- Books and shelf edit in Table view are fixed now - you shouldn't get back to the top (if you edited book) or to page one when you edit shelves.

- @Amaranth Eden - Please use links with tags which look like this (click on tag in public view post, not on Dashboard), then your additional pages will be visible for non-members: http://booklikes.com/tag/amaranthsgallery AND http://booklikes.com/tag/amaranthsreviews

- We’re preparing site for mobile devices; very sorry for some issues that you can come across on mobiles.

- @AnnaLund2011 - Resetting the template should help: Go to Customization tab . Something got mixed after editing HTML.

- No books from reblogs will be automatically added to your Shelf - works in progress.

Ya'll rock. Thanks for the fixes. I'm glad you're working on mobile accessiblity; I'd love to see an app with push notifications.

Thank you for being the great people you are and for listening to us (again / here as well)!

So I mentioned this is in the features thread and it was pointed out to me that it may be a bug, so...

When I review a book, I give it its star rating at the same time, in the review post window. I have just come to realise that this rating does not translate to the book on my shelf. In order to see the little stars above the books on my shelves, I have to also add the rating on the book page. It would be nice if there was only one set of stars that would show up everywhere.

#1 To make sure that the book (edition) is the same in your Review and on your Shelf, please review it from Shelf view. If the book is on your shelf with marked rating stars, click the cover (on your shelf) and choose “Create post” in book pop up. The rating stars will be transferred from your shelf to your review. Then your stars will be the same in your text and on shelf.

#2 If you search your Shelf (search box on the top with magnifying glass icon selected), you can view the Shelf where the book is. Click the search result, then reading status and you’ll see names of shelves it is put on.

#3 The reblogging is fixed now so once you reblogged a review the book will not be added to your shelf.

#4 The cover shift is very unlikely but if you did notice something disturbing, mail us with more details (book link, title, book source).

#5 It will change with new book data base.

#6 Thank you for this remark. We’ll add this to reviewed books in table view.

I am not getting results when searching for ASINs to add a book.
I am using a kindle fire in case that is the issue.

First search your shelf for a given book and click on it. When you see book pop up, please click on green reading status button (Read, Planning to read, Currently reading or On shelf) and you'll see your shelves (with possibility to edit) - see the exemplary book pop up with shelves.
If this still doesn't work, please mail us.
