Version 1.3.7 broke my book covers

Hey JimHeskett,

Unfortunately I can’t seem to replicate your issue on any of our other websites that are running MyBookTable.

The cause is probably a fix that we added in 1.3.7 that fixed some PHP errors that would crop up if people had messed up metadata for their book images, and causes it to fall back to using the default black book image if it sees invalid metadata instead. There must be something unusual about your WordPress setup that’s causing the metadata to look invalid.

If you’re willing, I could take a look into the code of your site to see if I can find out what’s causing this incompatability. You can contact me at [email protected].

I’m facing the same issue as “JimHeskett” after updating to this new version. Please provide a link to file 1.3.6 version which was working fine; to downgrade the update. I have kept my site on Maintenance mode so you may not be able to see it. but the issue is exactly same like JimHeskett said.

I am having the exact same issue on my site as well as a site I help manage:

https://www.corrissajames.com/publications (using TwentyThirteen theme)
https://www.miramichelleday.com/ebooks-and-novels/ (using TwentyFourteen)

I haven’t added any metadata for either site, so if that is the issue, it would have to be inherent in the out-of-the-box themes. Any help?

Hey guys,

Here’s a version of 1.3.7 without the PHP error fix which should solve this issue for you in the short term: authormedia.com/wp-content/plugins/mbt-api-backend/mybooktable.1.3.7.nofix.zip

We’ll be looking into the cause of this more over the next week and should release 1.3.8 shortly that will hopefully resolve this incompatibility.
