Stupid question. Import books

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.

This link will take you to the Bookshelves FAQs. It has the instructions for importing your books from Goodreads :tiphat:

Aloha,

Sorry for not clarifying. It stating for a CVS file. When using iphone, it does not give the choice when importing from Goodreads. Tips, please?

Blessings?

Aloha,

I do not mean be rude. I understand I post this question before. I am still looking for help, please.


When importing my Goodreads reading list, the instructions are different when using an I Phone. Does anyone have directions for this, please?

Blessings,
RM Griffin?

Do you mean the instructions are different on Goodreads for exporting the file from Goodreads (prior to then importing the file into Bookshelves?

Aloha,

When on the I phone there is no CVS file once you click import button. It just pulled up Google Drive and Cloud Drive

Mahalo
So you have exported the CSV file from Goodreads, correct?

Do you know where the file is located on your phone?

Have you uploaded files while using your internet browser on your phone before?

Unfortunately, it seems this is an issue with the phone software. OnlineBookClub has no control of the file browsing function of the phone/device itself. Trying a different web browser might help.
