محمد’s comments from the Goodreads Developers group.

I get frustrated trying to add a quote to one of Jacques Derrida's books (50 books in the list)
I couldn't find the book (it's sure there - Histoire du mensonge) but the list is so confusing

If it's alphabetically arranged, things will be so much easier

Thanks Charles

It's almost 3 months since i asked my question

After 3 days, I asked the same question in the feedback group

I have something string

One of my friend just shows me a screenshot of one of his books from his mobile dated by 7/21/2016, but when i went to his profile the same book was showing the date 7/20/2016

Something really odd

Hi

Just to make it easy for me to track my reading, I am exporting the RSS feed into excel file but i am getting wrong dates due a problem with the date_default_timezone_set

First, It was giving me error for each book that marked above 14:00:00, but, when i removed the default timezone line it starts giving me wrong date for each book that marked above 16:00:00

When i checked the time in the RSS feed, it shows me the following:

pubDate -0700
user_read_at -0700
user_date_added -0700
user_date_created -0800 (???)

What do you suggest to get the dates right

Note:
My hometown is Bahrain (UTC+03:00)

By looking inside the RSS feed fields i found these four dates

pubDate
user_read_at
user_date_added
user_date_created

What does mean each one of them ?

I really appreciate your great effort, thanks a lot

Hi

We have a group challenge (200 + members), we listed them here:
http://www.bahrainireaders.com/p/2016...

Using a widget for each member will make the page quite long, so we thought that the table format will be best practice

So, how we can present the same information in the widget into table format
