Hello everyone,

I am looking for wishlist books. I have provided a link to my wishlisted books in my signature. All the books included in the link are ones that I am number 1 for, so if you have any of these books lying around I would love to have them. :0)

 I am also offering a 2 for 1 deal on all the books on my shelf...some of which are wishlisted. Oo)

I get my own list, too. Sorry, I can't tell you the correct way to do it, but I'd love to find out.

I didn't read any of the other post before checking and at first I thought, "Wow! We have the same taste in books! I have that one on my reminder list too! And that one, and that one, wait...." Yep, I was looking at my own list! lol

It did not work right for me. I'm sorry. I do not know how to do it either. Peggy

Darn it! Where did it take you? Did it take you to your own list?

Here are the instructions.


After you have selected to put a book on RL, add in a Tag that can say whatever you want (eg. mine is LetisR). So each book that you add into your RL, you need to put the same tag on each one. Yeah, I know it’s a pain in the neck but it has to be done or your RL won’t appear. After you’ve put all the books you want on RL, then click on one of your tags. Then you will see the correct URL for your RL on top of the page (where URLs usually appear). Highlight that address and click Copy.

Then go to your Profile’s page and say something like “My Reminder List.” Highlight it, click on the sideways 8 (the URL address link) and paste your RL URL link on it. Viola! It’s done!

**side note on this since I learned the hard way. There should be no spaces or extra characters in your tag. I had Letis R and it never worked but once I changed it to LetisR it worked like a charm. :)

It's your extra characters and spaces Amber. I'll bet anything.

Collette, so since I put tag as numero uno it won't work because it has spaces? DARN IT! :0)

It did not take me to my own list but to one that had no entries. I am not good with this stuff so am not the one to ask. I did find your wish list by going to your bookshelf first. I do have some books very similar to some on your wish list. I think I have at least one Dear America book on my shelf and some Max Lucado and Curious George and maybe even McCloskey books. That one might have already been requested. I don't remember for sure but it might be worth a look at my shelf. I have over 225 books on there and a lot of good children's books. I will consider a deal if you find several you like. Thank you and I hope you get your links to work. Peggy

Hmmm it's still not working. I put up some instructions in the Question section in the forums too but they are the same as above. I wonder what step you are missing.

What is one of the wl'd books Amber? I'll go see if I see your tag on it.
