Book detail pages: manton.org
@manton Question about this new book blogging feature: can we edit the book page that gets created to add our personal review of the book, or is this a static page like we had before, but on our own site? Thanks for all you do!
@robertbreen Thanks! It should be possible but will currently require jumping through some hoops with a custom template. I’ll have to experiment, maybe it could be a plug-in.
@manton Book detail pages were not enabled because the page Books already uses /books/. Change the existing page’s address, then enable this setting again. ? huh
@adamprocter That error happens if you have a standalone page (under Pages) already using the path “/books”. Unfortunately you’ll have to edit the path for that other page, otherwise the new detail pages conflict with it.
@manton I know my books page was broken anyway… discursive.adamprocter.co.uk/books/ … so Ill try and start again
@adamprocter The key part is that “/books” can’t be used for a standalone page. You could still have a navigation item called “Books” but the path would need to be “/reading” or “/my-books” or something like that, which you can edit on the web. Sorry this is confusing!
