Just downloaded/installed beta125...same issue persists. I can't get accurate results from Bookpedia with Amazon US as the only source. I scanned this barcode: 9780544273443 And I got a record with 2 fields filled out: Title: Darkness Series Boxed Set URL: https://www.amazon.com/gp/slredirect/picass...

Scanning this barcode with Amazon US only as the source: 9780062204479 results in a record without much data - a title, Redemption [the book is called Thankful, so the title is not right], and the URL field has https://www.amazon.com/gp/slredirect/picassoRedirect.html filled in. This has happened wi...

I use a Metrologic Voyager USB barcode scanner and I've scanned thousands of books with it. Works great! You can find them on eBay pretty cheap:

Hey Conor,

Just a quick heads up that while the Music and Movies sections seem to be working okay, the Books front end just produces a white page [it's been like this for a few days, as I've been spot checking every few hours]. https://doghouse.bruji.com/books/doghouse

Downloaded and it's working great. Thanks for squashing that bug so quickly!

Awesome! Thank you so much, Conor! I'm downloading the latest beta right now and I will probably be putting more inventory in later tonight and tomorrow to test it out. Thank you!

One more I came across that I did scan with a barcode and not hand type. Even after removing the incorrect info and using the cog wheel to fetch info about ASIN 0465009131, the URL field still pointed to the Kindle version: https://www.amazon.com/Fixing-My-Gaze-Scientists-Dimensions/dp/0465020739 So...

Beta 112 of Bookpedia - noticed this issue today - when scanning books in via barcode or entering them manually [via the multi add ++ button], the "Date Added" field is populated with the exact, correct time/date stamp. However, when one edits anything in the record, later on, by double cl...

Hi Conor, While this bug seems to have been squashed when I enter books via the barcode, I did come across an edge case just now. I have an old book with an ASIN only and had to type it in: B00O3HE9SA When entering it into Bookpedia, the URL field filled in with the 2018 copy: https://www.amazon.com...

Hi Conor, Thanks for the info - glad it wasn't me that was doing any kind of crashing! I am unsure they would be a good match, but I have a DreamHost account and have used their mysql database as a backup for some stuff, and the service and speed is good for my needs. Maybe you can give them a try, ...

I'm trying to submit a good portion of my Bookpedia collection and I am noticing that when I select a collection to submit, after a few minutes, the website front end goes down [just a blank white page] - this is for the main Books page, as well as the books I've submitted page [as well as the rest ...

Conor - you *rock*! I have not found a good reason for why the URL changes - often it is just the paperback version of the hardcover I enter [or hardcover version of the paperback i enter, or sometimes the MP3 audio book version of a paperback that i enter; the kindle issue that used to be a problem...

Thanks, Conor! I look forward to the next version! :) It could be possible that 2 users would be working on books in the same collection [one editing an entry, adding sales data to it, and one adding an entry to the collection]. I keep multiple backups of the Bookpedia database, but even so, I'd rat...

I did not realize one could successfully relocate the bookpedia database to Dropbox - that is great! One thing you mentioned at the end, though - "since you won't be in 2 places at once..."....well, what if I am? :) Would a user on computer 1 be able to add books to the database while a di...

I've had this issue for quite a while, and while it seemed to disappear for a few releases, it is currently back again and causing some headaches for me. Using Amazon US only [i sell on there, so i don't use any other source when scanning books into Bookpedia, as I use the app as my inventory app], ...
