The beta site gives a 404 page when I click the link in the schedule (https://beta.j-novel.club/read/ascendance-of-a-bookworm-manga-part-2-volume-1-chapter-1) - it's fine on the live site, though.
-
@rsog412 I moved your post because it's a beta website issue, not an issue with the series/volume.
-
Seems to be fixed now, regardless, so either transient issue or someone worked fast! Thanks!

I useful feature would be if in library view the total number of volumes in a series as well as how many you own e.g. 3 of 5 where shown as well a have the ability to buy unpurchased volumes from followed series in library view.
Another useful feature would be the ability to subscribe to a series so that new volumes would be deducted from credits as volumes become available. -
Beta Websites Calendar seems to have gone wonky on me? Not sure if this is happening to anyone else or not.

@Demonskid Yeah, I reported it ~2 weeks ago. It seems to happen when I go to the calendar page directly from the address bar or refresh the page, but not when I go to it from a link (the calendar button at the top of the page, or the next/previous month buttons). So you can see the calendar if you look at the page that way (at least for me) but yeah, something is wrong with it.
-
@FalseAim Good to know it's not just me.
Speaking of those buttons, when I tried switching to 'User' then going back to 'Calendar' to see if that would fix the calendar issue (it did not), my user page's Library was empty. I don't own any of the series via JNC, but I am following a handful of series. The calendar shows that I'm still following these series but the Library is saying I'm not?

A possible enhancement: Can you add the details about the bonus when we click the buy button? Something like 2 SS or Textless Illustrations? one liner is enough. User doesn't have to jump to forums to check the bonus details in the thread. Also thread is not updated with recent release bonus content details.

It already does though, for recently released ebooks. See attached images. They just haven't gone through the 500+ ebooks they've released over the years to update all of them, which will be quite the endeavor.

FInally, this was one of my wishes I expressed quite often.
So jsut a questiona s I was not reading the last 5 pages. When will the Beta status be finished?
-
@LegitPancake Really didnt notice that. I was redeeming some old books and thought how nice it will be for the Bonus details to be there.
As far as old books are concerned, if they have a excel or something for the books then it will be really quick for insert the details in Database. Just create a macro to generate insert statements from excel for the books. it will be really fast if the document is well organized. Many of my co-workers do the same thing.
-
I'm glad the bonus content is having a place on the new website. I would think it would be better though to show what the bonus content is next to each volume instead of showing it when the user hits the buy button though. Just my 2 cents.
-
I couldn't see this suggested, so maybe I'm just missing something; I got two requests regarding the library:
- a way to quickly go to the series from within your library
- a way to quickly purchase additional volumes
Also the beta website is awesome, and I generally default to browse there!
Edit but low priority:
- a gifting and wishlist functionality.
I currently tend to use the follow button as a sort of reminders functionality.
-
By The Grace of the Gods Volume 6 buy button has two Bookwalker links, and one leads to Altina the Sword Princess: Volume 7.
-
For volumes, the "Owned" label is overridden by "Subscribe" for non-members.
https://beta.j-novel.club/titles/novel/invaders-of-the-rokujouma
I owned volumes 1-35 of 36. (I have since fixed that problem. 😉)
- Volumes 1-34 showed up as "Owned", as expected.
- Volume 36 showed up as "Subscribe", as expected.
- Volume 35 also showed up as "Subscribe", when I would have expected it to show up as "Owned".
-
It seems that the premium listing for "Apothecarian Diaries" is wrong. I don't think "Allows you to read prepub parts for the whole book immediately" was intented to be put there.
And as a sidenote. I usually tend to go now to the beta website. Hopefully this layout will be soon live.
-
@saskir Technically that's correct right now, since all the prepub parts of Apothecary is out and hasn't expired yet.

And technically you would have the same perks when you buy it over Kobo or Amazon.
-
@saskir No, what I mean is if you buy the premium edition vol 1 now, you immediately get access to the prepubs (using the beta app), even if you don't have an active membership.
If you buy from Kobo/Bookwalker etc you still have to wait until the ebook release date.
