I tried to create series for Lynne Reid Banks three books about Jane Graham, starting with The L-Shaped Room and Brian Earnshaw' 7 Dragonfall 5 books and 3 Starclipper books (Star Jam Pack according to my source).

I thought everything was going smoothly, but I see no evidence of success.

(I tried to look through posts here, esp. the tips topic, but all I saw is that the author page would be a caching issue - the series link should be immediate?)

On the first book of the series, go into edit details and down at the bottom you'll see a link for 'series'. You need to click that to create the series and then use the add button on the series page to add the rest of the series.

You only create the series once though, not for every book or you get duplicates. Create it once then add the other books to it.

On the series edit page you can add or delete books from the series, number them, reorder how they appear, etc

Huh - that's tricky. And apparently there are optional fields and functions I'll have to get used to... but it does seem like it will be quicker once I get the hang of it... Thanks!
