Issues with new editions

I just added two books without issues. If the issue continues you should report it to the staff, they're the only ones who can look into it.We only know about maintenance when there is an announcement in this group.
I've found that if you try to add a cover image the site doesn't like, it will result in an error and not create the book at all.
Oh I didn’t know that, I’ll keep it in mind thanks!I don’t think this is the case though, I’ve tried both new books and new editions of existing books, several titles, several times in the last 24 hours.
I wrote to the staff as Renske suggested.
Edit: For Alison: your suggestion kept bugging me so I tried again, switched out the cover image and it worked! I didn’t think it would, because when the error occurred I'd managed the covers the same as I always have, so I still don’t know why it suddenly stopped working. But in any case, thank you, it seems I can add books again :)


I seem to be able to edit existing ones just fine so far, but whenever I try to add a new edition it lets me fill out the whole thing, and then gives a “Page unavailable” error when I try to save.
I noticed yesterday and just tried again but it still doesn’t work.
I’m wondering if there’s anything I can do about it or if maybe there’s some maintenance being done I don’t know about?
Thanks
