So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

How does the reading goal for 2016 work?

Post by Alwhitbeck »

I spent a good bit of time updating my bookshelves this morning before setting a goal for the book reading goal for 2016. When I set my goal and looked at my shelves, it applied all the books I added this morning to my goal for the year. I know I read fast, but I can't read 40+ books in 13 days.

Is there any way to manually edit the completion percentage or which books it should include?

If you add books using the mass adder, it should not count them as read in 2016.

Unfortunately, this won't help if you already added books regularly.

I can reset all the books you marked as read as having not been read in 2016 if that helps.

Oh, well I did them all regularly to make sure that the book would have a cover page and other info. However some of the books I added I did read this year, so would it work if I just changed them to unread until I complete the reading goal?
