Sotto Voce | 21 comments Hi,

Can someone help with the Amazon link on my book
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
it doesn't work.

When I google the Amazon manually or paste the Amazon link below, it works fine.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09HGZC1RM

Thanks in advance.

Sotto Voce | 21 comments Hi Scott,

Thank you so much for your reply. My thread was buried I only managed to find it back now.

Is there a way for me to fix this?
The links to my other books seem fine.

Thanks in advance,
Sotto

Scott | 8682 comments If you can convert the ISBN13 to an ISBN10 we can enter it.

Sotto Voce | 21 comments Hi Scott,

I have no idea what it means tbh, so I tried to read around and do the conversion, it's said that ISBN with the beginning of 979 (which is what I have) can't be converted to ISBN10.

I'm not sure why it becomes a problem now as it used to work.
Is that mean there is no way to fix the link?

I notice the link only uses ASIN.

Please advice.


Thanks in advance,
Sotto

Scott | 8682 comments It always depended upon the ISBN10 or ASIN. If an ISBN10 can't be applied, then readers will just have to take that extra step.

Sotto Voce | 21 comments I guess there is nothing I can do, then.
Thank you so much for your help.

Have a great day!
