Library Thing Question - Blu-ray Forum

Xtempo · 12-27-2018, 04:24 PM

I started using this and am adding titles but the question is:

The titles that I have added do not show up on the list as you can see in the link below. it shows I have 120 or so but on the list they aren't all there.

so how does this work? does it take awhile to show up? or what's the deal?

Even after reading his post the first time, I still thought he was talking about an actual library

I don't see it for somehow but if it's working as you say it is then I will still use it. Thanks for your input.

I see 135 titles. On the upper left hand side, make sure you select 'All Collections'.

Xtempo · 12-27-2018, 07:26 PM

So now I've been trying to add everything but there are titles in the database I can't seem to add because the amazon search doesn't come up with anything.

Anyone know how to add without having it go through the different sources to search?

When you click on 'Add Books', look towards the bottom on the left hand side (below Search Where). Under 'Other Options', select on 'Add Manually'.

Before you do this, try adding your books via ISBN rather than the book title. I find this to be a better method of adding books to LT.

thanks I will do that.

You also don't seem to be using the 'Collections' feature of LT which is a way of sub-categorizing your books. For example, you can have a sub-category of 'Manga' & 'Hollywood' & 'History' & 'Other Books', etc.

When you click on 'Add Books', under 'Add to Collection', click on 'Edit Collections' to manage your categories.

thanks I am still trying to figure things out.
