]]>Hello!
The plug-in does not retrieve the book information when I enter the ISBN. I checked the google API manager and it says that there are client errors.
I was wondering if this is an incompatibility issue or if there’s a setting I need to tweak…
Thank you very much for looking at my inquiry. Other than this minor issue, I love this plug-in!
Best,
Kris

]]>HI,
I customized the plugin making it useful for Manga instead for books. It may depend on the template that I have chosen, and I can not change it, but when I view an article about a manga it does not display the record with the plugin data-fields. What could be the reason?

]]>Hi, and thanks for a very nice plugin!
Have you considered adding widgets to the plugins? For instance, listing the latest reviews, or the reviews with the highest ratings?
All the best,

Hello. Very nice plugin.
I was trying to figure out how to delete custom fields?
I did not see a delete selector. So I cleared out the field labels, and they disappeared from the Custom Fields area in the admin. But they are still visible in the post metabox via the post editor.
Thanks.

Thank you for this best plugin. I want to ask if it is a possibility for pagination by letters?
Thanks.
]]>Hi Everyone,
I’ve recently launched a new site for the Book Review plugin over at WPReviewPlugins.com, which also has its own forums. As a result, I will no longer be offering support via this forum. If you require assistance, please visit the General Support forum. For feature requests, please visit the Feature Requests forum.
Thx.

Love the plugin but since I updated the custom links have disappeared. I tried to configure the links again in book review settings, and everything seems to be fine (it says settings saved) but no links show up in the book info sections. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
]]>Hi Donna, thanks for a the beautiful plugin!
Is there any way to format the archive page to show headings? Compared to how the archive looks on your page, this is pretty terrible. The font for the authors’ names is odd, the star rating is hard to see so close beneath the picture, and there is no exerpt.

I appreciate your help.
]]>Hi there
This is a great plugin, did almost everything I need for a book review site.
However, I want to ask a small question. Could I customize the archives, let say, just show all the book with a specific tag? So I could build many book lists and show them on my site.
If it’s possible, then please show me how I can do it.
Thanks you very much.
]]>Hi,
I followed the instructions for setting up the Google API key, however when I try to use it, the key is not accepted…
Also, will this plug-in allow users of my site to post their own info, and have the template generated? Currently I am entering info from hundreds of authors manually
Thank You
]]>Hi Donna Peplinskie,
many compliments for your awesome plugin. Is unique in the WP Plugin Directory!
I installed id last week and started to load data of my client (a writer).
Is possible to add personalized fields? In this case I need to insert a field with the name (and relative link to his page) of illustrator. Is quite ugly to write it below the text generated from your plugin and my client say that it can be compromise his partnership :-/
Many thanks and have a nice day!

When I first installed the plugin, everything worked perfectly. Unfortunately, the star rating no longer shows up. From the bit of troubleshooting I’ve done, the url to the star rating image is broken.
For example, the current url is: https://www.prosepig.com/wp-content/plugins/includes/images/four-star.png
When it should be: https://www.prosepig.com/wp-content/plugins/book-review/includes/images/four-star.png
An example post is here: https://www.prosepig.com/book-review-the-gigantic-beard-that-was-evil/
Thank you!
]]>Hi,
I’d like to suggest also supporting the ISBNDB.com API for book information requests. Its terms & conditions may better suit people that don’t want to enter a developer agreement with Google.
Complete documentation is here:

Thanks in advance for considering this.

]]>Hi –
I am entering data in the Book reviews (or it gets populated automatically when I use the “get book info” option).

Any ideas?
]]>Hello,
I am beginning to work on WordPress, with the Virtue theme.
Book Review matches exactly with my needs for reviewing board games… but I have an unclosed tag messing the whole page display while trying to call all the reviews linked to a tag (for example ?reading-level=something).
One example of the broken page is here (please note this is a temporary hosting while waiting for final name and domain registration).
I can’t find which file or code block is erroneous. At least I think it comes from the plugin since I don’t have the same problem while listing articles with a common category.
Would you please help me?
]]>Hi,
I would like to add/edit some metadata fields to adapt it for comic books. For example for comic books you’ll have a writer, artist, colorist and letterer while there is only one Author field.
Is this something possible?
Also I would like to change the date formatting from US to EU. it’s currently 10/1/2014 (for October 1st) and I would like to make like 1/10/2014 (October 1st).
Thanks so much for this awesome plugin!

I was wondering if I could make the covers the featured image. So they can show up in thumbnails.
]]>Hi,
I’m completely new to WordPress, plugins, widgets, blogs, etc.
That said, I have set up a website https://www.indiebookblurb.com which I intend to use as a book review website. I have downloaded and followed (as far as I can tell, accurately) all the steps, including the API key (which I understand is necessary to populate the info automatically for a book, once the title has been typed in).
What I’m trying to do is add information to the area where it says to add the book title and/or the ISBN etc (a lot of ebooks don’t have 10 digit ISBNs at Amazon Books, but they do all have ASINs) and after I do and I click the Get Book Info button, I get an error message suggesting that I may not have accurately added the API key. The thing is that after following all the steps to do so, I think I have installed the API correctly.
So at this point I can’t use the plugin. Can you help me figure out what it is that I’m doing wrong?
Regards and thank you so much for providing this free resource.

Hello!
I have created a couple of book reviews which have titles written in Russian. On the main page where I’m using shortcode [book_review_archives type=”title”] I see that both titles are under a question mark instead of first letters.
Please, help to solve the problem!
]]>Sweet. Great work. Wished it worked on pages.
]]>Hi there!
The plugin works really well so congratulations on creating it. I just had a brief question.
Is it possible to have more than one genre per book?
For example if I add “history, archaeology” as the genres on one book and “history, politics” on another book then when I use the archives by genre it will list the books as follows:
History, Archaeology
Book 1
History, Politics
Book 2
What I would like it to do is
History
Book 1
Book 2
Archaeology
Book 1
Politics
Book 2
How to I change the order the Book page shows the information?
I want the information in my “post” to appear before the box with author, genre and rating.
]]>Is it possible to hide the Letter headers (seen my site https://lostlittlelutheran.com as “A” “U” and “Z”)? Since I only have a few reviews, it’s not necessary to have the headers, and they take up more room than I’d like.
Thanks!
