I was just browsing through the daily wish list and I got all excited because I have so many of those books on my shelf (which is on hold until my broken leg heals).  However, upon closer examination, those books could actually be ordered.  They were not wishlisted.

What gives? Anyone know?

Are you sure you were looking at the Daily WISH LIST and not the Daily DIGEST?

I don't get the digest mailed to me. I've only requested the daily wish list.

However, I think what I read was the digest.  Weird. I miss my daily wishlist.....

I think both the daily digest and daily wish list are WONKY right now...when I use the WL link, I get the digest , and the digest gives you EVERYTHING rather than just the sections you want. Pretty much worthless at this point and I hope they get it fixed SOOOOOON! (Are you listening, R&R?? LOL)

I was so excited because I was finally able to once again access my Daily Wish List after I would get the morning PBS e-mail.  Previously, for at least 10 days, when I attempted to access the Daily Wish List, all I got was a blank page, and the suggested "hard refresh" had no effect at all.

Then the first day I was able to access the Daily Wish List, there were 1284 books on the list!!!  And I never had more than 50 previously.  So I thought that maybe it was an accumulation of wishlisted books for  all the days that I didn't get the wish list.  But it wasn't.

Now, my Daily Wish List consists of about 1500 books, but they all appear to be books of my requested genre that have been POSTED, not wishlisted.

I'll just hang in there.  Eventually, they'll get it fixed.

Glad you posted about this, because I couldn't figure it out and thought it must just be me.

I want my Daily Wishlist back, too!

I sent a note to R & R about it.
