You have two options with Evergreen. You can use item ISBN/UPCs or record numbers to create image carousels that link to items in your catalog.

Here are some steps to get you started. If you give your Evergreen catalog URL I can give more precise instructions.

1. Go to Bookshelves > Settings.
2. On the Catalog Setting tab choose one of the Evergreen options from the Catalog System drop down list.
3. In Catalog Domain Name enter the URL of your catalog.
4. In Catalog Profile/Config can be used if you are part of a consortium and the catalog has customizations for each member library, such as showing the library logo. If you don’t know your location ID it can be found by searching the catalog for items at your library. Look the the URL of the search results and look for the number after “locg=”. This is your location ID. Enter it into the Catalog Profile/Config setting field.
5. The Image Server setting should be the same Evergreen option you chose for the Catalog Setting.

That’s all you need to get started! Copy & paste some item numbers into a Bookshelf and you should see cover images that link to the item records in your catalog.

The COPS API bug has been fixed.

You can have more of the title text visible by adjusting the Caption Line Limit and/or Caption Font Size in the Customize CSS tab of the plugin settings.

You can use it now! Just select WebPAC PRO as your catalog system. Let me know if you need more assistance configuring the settings.

I’ve built in a fix for Divi themes into version 5.3. Let me know if this fixes your issue after you upgrade. Thanks!

Version 5.3 has support for Sirsi RSS feeds. Try it out and let me know if you run into any issues.

I should be able to work with that. Look for a Sirsi RSS option in the next version. Thanks for asking!

There is a conflict between rendering Divi tabs and the Slick slider this plugin uses, But I have fixed this on sites using Divi themes before.

Create a module in the Divi library containing the following script:

<script type='text/javascript'>
// Fixes Bookshelves rendering issues in Divi tabs.

// Add click event to tabs
jQuery('[class^=et_pb_tab]').click( function() {
	// Get the current tab class
	target = jQuery(this).attr("class");
	
	// Wait until the tab has finish transitioning to visible
	setTimeout( function() {
		// Find all the Bookshelves within the current tab
		jQuery( 'div .' + target + ' [class^=bookshelf]' ).each( function() {
			// Get the unqiue IDs of each Bookshelf
			target = '#' + jQuery(this).attr('id');
			// Use the Slick refresh method to make each bookshelf display as expected
			jQuery(target).slick('refresh');
		});
	}, 750);
});
</script>

Add this module after the tabs on your page(s) containing Bookshelves.

Bookshelves should now render properly when switching tabs.

I tested it and was able to create a Bookshelf with images and titles. I suspect the issue is with your WordPress server. If you can locate error logs on your web server they might help identify the problem.

It appears your COPS server is offline at the moment. Bookshelves should display correctly when the server is online.

Perhaps OpenLibrary or LibraryThing might be better suited to your needs than Calibre.

There’s no special port that needs to be opened up on the server. I’ve seen it happen that an ILS server firewall will flag and block the webserver.

You have discovered an issue with the COPS API function I will have to correct. In the meantime, you should be ale to manually enter book IDs into a Bookshelf and have them display.

Make sure your settings look like this:

Catalog Protocol: HTTP

Catalog System: COPS

Catalog Domain Name: your IP Address and port

Catalog Profile/Config: cops

Image Server: COPS

Version 5.2 supports Atriuum. Go ahead and take it for a spin!

No clues in that log either, I’m afraid…

It looks like you are using the NYT API in the Bookshelf on your homepage?

You could check with your TLC admin to find out if the TLC server is blocking your webserver from accessing the API/RSS feed.

You can send it to REDACTED
