I would like to update all my covers, and have read up how to do this. I understand that after uploading an up-to-date image, I can make this the default image. But I don't have the ACE option showing. I have claimed my author profile so I don't feel that is the issue. I hope you can help me. Thank you.

To create an ACE, you must be on the edition with the ISBN or ASIN that is to be moved to the new edition.

So I went onto my paperback edition, which has the ISBN and ASIN, and I still don't see the ACE button. Instead, it tells me I have been granted special librarian status and not to take it lightly. It shows that I can delete the photo, but I thought that was against the rules, and I don't know if I should. I can see the option to set as the primary edition, which I understand I can do once the new cover is there. Am I okay to go ahead and delete the image? And when it's set to the primary edition (stupid question, sorry) it will be the one that readers will see, not the old kindle editions? What does combining editions do? Thanks.
The ACE button is the small, round button with three dots on it. You can't delete images. Create the ACE instead.Once the new edition is added, you will be able to edit that one and set it as the default/primary edition. After some processing time (allow a day or so) the primary will be the one that shows on your profile page, and in searches for the title. Readers, of course, can still access the older edition if they want.
Thanks, Scott. I don't see a small, round button. I do see the option to delete (but as I say, I don't want to, as it's against the rules). I wish I could attach a photo to show you. I'm not sure I understand why you mention an ARC 🤔 Did you mean create an ACE?Here's the page I see: https://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/6...
Thank you for the info about the primary edition.
Ok, I see you have made the alternate cover edition. Now you need to go to the new edition:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
edit it and set it as default.
Thank you! I believe I have now done this too. Can you please tell me how to show my books in the order I'd like them too?
