This might be a known bug already @brandon, but just in case not: it looks like the auto series -grabber has a limit of 40 books; Teil von: Manga Love Story (series) | L24??, Teil von: Skip Beat! (series) | L24??, Teil von: One Piece (series) | L24??, etc. should both have more entries than are currently on Natively, but their Natively series both stop at book #40.

Hey everyone… I’ve fixed up a lot of data issues with regards to duplicates, bad series titles and what not… so the German side should be looking pretty good to go! Let me know if you still hit issues.
Will be doing a reddit announcement soon I think 
Edit: And yes i’ll be taking a look at that 40 book series limit today.

I’ve added Schritte plus 2: Deutsch als Fremdsprache / Kursbuch + Arbeitsbuch mit Audio-CD zum Arbeitsbuch und interaktiven Übungen | L0 which is part of a series, but seems like the order(and gradings?) of books is wrong and vol 5 is also missing.
I checked the amazon link and looks like vol 5 is not listed as the same series over there too.

Hmm, yes. It seems like this is a little messed up, doesn’t it
This sort of request is best handled by submitting a ‘Something not right? Let us Know’ report… you can find that button on the series page - Schritte Plus (series) | L0
Just let us know what’s the amazon book url that needs to be added, the correct levels and order for everything and we’ll get it fixed up

Any of our German learners willing to make a custom list or two? Would be a big help getting the ball rolling on the German lists

I’ve made a few, but the TV shows seem to have an issue with the cover images: Bingeable TV Shows You Know & Love | German list by bibliothecary | Natively.
ETA: I also keep hitting the server issues page after editing lists in German, which didn’t happen with other languages.

I’ve always been curious - is there a way to tell what language (dub and/or sub) a show is available in besides finding it where its available and checking there?

Is this still happening?
Made a couple of edits and didn’t have a problem, seems to be fixed!

Not as far as I’m aware - it would be useful, though!

So, there’s been a slight update.
I’ve changed the CEFR level mapping - I set ‘A0’ as the bottom level range and pushed up all the other ones. So the new mapping is:
A0 : 0-5
A1 : 6-12
A2 : 13-19
B1 : 20-26
B2 : 27-33
C1 : 34-40
C2 : 41+
Why? Well, I want to keep Harry Potter vol 1 around lvl 29… so that the Japanese and other grading systems are somewhat close (Japanese has harry potter around lvl 29… actually lvl 31 currently, but it fluctuates).
This does mean, however, that all the books submitted at an initial level will now be wrong if you did it by CEFR lvl approximation. However, this isn’t a terribly big issue.
What I’d like to do now is to try to find some books which we can ‘set’ at a level and then have all the other books benchmarked to those standard books. See Come help the grading system! Request for Benchmark Books, Movies & TV Shows~ for more info.
Edit: Shoot, textbooks will be a bit off now! I will try to address…

I tried to add a German book today (had requested its series to be added some time ago, but nothing happened so far 
so I figured I’d request the individual book this time around) and it could not find the book on “search”, and when I tried to add the book nonetheless, it told me I should use the Japanese Amazon although I’m clearly in the German section:

hmm… that’s strange. It also looks like the auto function couldn’t find it?
What’s the url ?
It should be this one:
I had requested the series already through the series page https://www.amazon.de/dp/B08H3N4HJD?binding=pocket_book&qid=1715010926&sr=8-1&ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tukn which was accepted by Natively just fine, but the books haven’t appeared yet…

Unfortunately, I’m waiting on a response from support. There does seem to be an issue with my account, but I never received any mail from them specifying that my account status was changed?
It’s strange, but hopefully they get back soon.
