I have Booksidian set to sync my "Read" shelf, but books I am currently reading are being synced ... ? #14

Hi!

In goodreads, I am on the page that only shows my "read" books, and I am copying that RSS field. I also have the plugin to sync the "Read" folder, but for some reason, books I'm currently reading are showing up as well ... ? Thank you!!!

Hi, I dont know if you have fixed this yet but have u looked at your RSS base URL?

it should be like this: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list_rss/(your number here)&shelf=

it could be that you set it up like this: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list_rss/(your number here)&shelf=ALL

That way it makes it so that all your books are showing up.

Thanks so much for writing back - here is a screenshot of my options, it is the “read” shelf.

You should leave out read after the '&shelf=', that first and foremost. Next change 'Read' to 'read' (im not sure if that helps but just try) If the currently reading books still show up after these changes try creating your rss link again. If all of these dont work I can send you my goodreads shelf scraper (which gets the pages, plot, author, series, book poster, title as shown here:

Thank you, I think that worked! Do you have a “buy me a coffee” link set up ?

Hello again!

One more question if you don’t mind:

I’m finding that even though I’m sorting my books by date read, they aren’t quite in the right order?

Here’s a quick (10 sec) screen video showing it. Happy New Year!

@Eroxx Can you check your shelf edit page https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/edit and see if the shelves you're trying to import have sorting enabled? Also it doesn't seem possible to enable sorting for the read shelf.
