Kizzie Jones | 1 comments I got my blog added to my profile but cannot figure out how to sync the existing posts. I see that Shaun has helped with this in the past--maybe Shaun or another helpful person can help--going a bit crazy here trying to do it. Thanks!

Christopher Pickert | 4 comments Go to your Author Dashboard, scroll down and click on the title "Your Blog" (that is just one way to get to your actual blog page on Goodreads). On the top right you will see a "Sync Blog" button.

Be careful, however - that will pull the feed from your external blog website and copy content to Goodreads' cache. If you find that you have made a mistake in a blog entry title, or in part of the content that Goodreads caches, or if you simply want to change something on a post, you have no control over the GR cache and the old version sticks on GR. They don't have a mechanism to update changed blog content in their cache, at least not yet. I got around it once by actually un-publishing a blog entry on my site, syncing the GR blog, then republishing with a different date and re-syncing. Ugh!

Shaun is staff and staff don't monitor this group anymore.
