Another odd bug

Post by danco »

I am using Bookpedia on my imported database of around 4000 books.

I wanted to mark the books I am planning to give away. I did two things.

In the Custom 3 option, I called the column "Sale or giveaway", and simply inserted Y for items I plan to give away.

Also, I set the location for such items as Back hall giveaway.

I selected a bunch of items, did an Edit book on the set (can't recall if I used the menu or the toolbar) got a window entitled Multiple Edit, entered Y in the "Sale or giveaway" position, and "back hall giveaways" in the Location.

Now, when I look at individual items, I find that the book shows the information

Borrowed by: giveaway

which I certainly did not enter.

I could let you have a copy of the database if necessary.

I've tried to recreate the problem but couldn't find a way unfortunately. Could you send us your info.xml file so we can have a look at the data directly? You'll find the file in your Home folder under ~/Library/Application Support/Bookpedia/info.xml

Please archive the file before sending it by ctrl-clicking it and choosing 'Archive' from the contextual menu. That'll create a file called info.xml.zip which you can then attach to the email.
(Our address is on the Support page.)
