Something wrong

    Hello,

    There are several problems I’ve met. I use the default shortcode [gs_book_showcase theme=”gs_book_theme1″].

    First is that the book page does not show, e.g., after adding a book, a permanent link is created domain.com/archives/books/book-2, but when I click there, I get the message Page not found. The same thing when I click on Details while hovering on the book’s picture, the destination is Page not found, so there is no way to read the whole excerpt.

    Second, when I choose a square cover picture, then only the upper part of information appears during the hover, while there’s no way to read the lower part, e.g, publisher, URL, etc.

    Hi @sens4

    Thanks for your details.

    After installing Books Showcase plugin, add new page & insert the shortcode [gs_book_showcase theme=”gs_book_theme1″]

    domain.com/archives/books/book-2
    Please check permalink structure you saved at Settings > Permalink Settings

    Suppose you created a page named books & added shortcode. Now you want the permalink will be domain.com/books then you have to set Settings > Permalink Settings > Post name permalink structure.
    Just “Save Changes” at permalink structure will not show any error.
    It’s not the plugin error, it’s WP url flush issue.

    Second issue, I’m not sure what size book image you added.
    At Faq I mentioned, What will be Book image dimension?
    Recommended image size 600px X 900px for perfect view on various devices.

    Again, it’s not the plugin problem, just you need to add the large size image.

    If needed, I can setup the plugin to your site.
    if you unable to send access of your site, you can give access of a test site to show you.

    You added 1 star, I request you to change the rating & feedback.
    Your best rating & positive review help me to grow & serve you better.

    Thanks in advance for understanding.

    Keep in touch.

    Hi Golam,

    You’re right. I use numeric permalink, and, haven’t changed anything, but today the book details permalinks are working. That’s a good news, but the problem is it only shows a plain text, no cover, no descriptive information as are in the demo.

    About the pictures, I used 1000×1000 px dimension and 1672 × 1061 ones. As I understand, the plugin needs only longitudinal square pictures of at least 600×900?

    I gave the rating because it didn’t work, sure I will change it.

    Hi @sens4

    Thanks for your response.

    As you are using large image then definitely shows other info.
    May be css issue with your theme.
    I can send you custom css if needed but before I need to check.

    Thanks

    This is not a big issue Golam, I can use your recommended picture size. But can you please explain how to make the book’s detail pages look close to the demo? Now it is only plain text.

    Hi,

    Single Book Template is not included with free version.
    So it’ll look like your current theme’s single post style.

    Can you please change to reviews & ratings?

    Thanks
