I’m not logging a product request right now since I’ve no idea how to word it properly/succinctly (every time I’ve tried to write a title so far, it’s quickly devolved into a long, complicated, half-nonsensical mess, so I’m writing this here for now and saving a bookmark), but.
Sometimes authors’ names will be displayed as both “A B” and “AB,” and they’re functionally the same in search. If you search an author or click the name, it’ll bring up all works credited to that author regardless of whether it’s got a space or not or whether the search had one or not. That’s great.
But they’re not functionally the same in series. There are series on here that are listed as being by “Various authors” despite those “various authors” just being “A B” and “AB,” a.ka. the same person, which is annoying, not to mention misleading. So it would be nice if they could be treated the same on series pages too, maybe just display it the way it’s formatted on the first volume. Or else authors could have a standardized name format for series pages, so even if it’s inconsistent within a series, the site still recognizes that they’re all by the same author instead of thinking they were written by different people.
Thanks! I missed that while scrolling through the product requests category. I’ve appended it. (I coulda swore the space vs no space worked for me before though, and it woulda been after that was logged, but it definitely ain’t working right with Dazai. Odd.)
I read the first few chapters and it’s cute so far. I’ll probably buy the next two since I think they’re on sale, just wanted to try the first before buying more.
I’m still seeing server issues but I can see from the global feed other people are updating their book pages just fine. Maybe it’s just this book, or it’s my account? I’ll test it in a bit.
/edit i figured it out - that specific book had 0 pages set, so i couldn’t set it as a percentage. Probably could use a better error message for that eventuality
My antivirus keeps flagging both the actual site and the forums as phishing. Happens on both Chrome and Firefox, it’s been happening for the last week I think?
Probably not related. SSL Error is a server config or expired cert sorta thing. Not the sorta thing that gets you accidentally on phishing watchlists afaict
In this case the SSL error is because the SSL cert is for mailgun.org and isn’t valid for the email.mg.learnnatively.com URL – i.e. the mailgun tracking links aren’t set up correctly. (I know nothing about mailgun but found a forum thread suggesting that trying to do this with a four level domain name doesn’t work and it has to be three level for the SSL certs to work.)
I guess it’s possible this could feed into a “maybe this is phishing” heuristic if enough other users of the antivirus plugin are following links in email and the antivirus notes the correlation of the domain and the SSL cert mismatch and decides the domain is therefore suspicious. But it could also be pure coincidence.
@cat@pm215 thanks for noting the mailgun issue again and for @pm215 investigating! I’ve opened a support ticket with them to get that resolved.
@meagstudies that’s very concerning! Like @pm215 noted, I think the email issue is separate… what’s your antivirus? Is there someway to report a false positive?
@cat@pm215 I think i’ve resolved the issue (I’ve stopped click tracking through mailgun, so the email links should be simply links to https://learnnatively.com now).
I use AVG. Natively’s the only site that I’m having trouble with, but since others aren’t having the same issue I’m going to assume it’s my antivirus’ fault. Virus definitions and the app are up to date, I hope the next update fixes the issue! In the mean time, I’ll look into reporting the false positive
