    I'm pretty sure this is the display from the public reading list, correct?

    In this case, just look at your Public Reading List and you should have no problem... You need to make it public first though.

    Copy the link to your public reading list (see image attached) and send it to whoever you wish to share it to.

    How do I make a copy of a reading list?

    I want to copy everything from one list and put it into another. It won't let me have a novel in more than one list as well is this deliberate?

    You can rename the list and yes, I believe only one novel per list is deliberate. If you are wanting to sort the novels by something specific the private tags in the notes feature are probably more useful.

    Is there anything like a "check all entries boxes" option? I couldn't find any.
    And as for the private tags, do queries search across all your lists or only on the selected list?
    Is there a way to search via non-private tags? i.e. the tags that already exist for the novel?

    Check all entries is per novel and available in ways that I can think of off the top of my head. I don’t know what happened to this sentence. I meant to say, I can think of two ways to check all entries, although both are per novel.

    Clicking the box next to the latest chapter on the novel page.​

    Using the blue recycle symbol that appears after you click the brown book.​


    You can use series-finder https://www.novelupdates.com/series-finder/ to search by real tags and customize which lists you are including. First change it to including and then select the lists you are wanting to search.

    I have a problem xD I enabled reading list but I decided to disable it again, but when I click on some novel there is still "Add series to... " part on my page. I didn't have that before. How can I remove that?

    Hello! First of all thank you for this big reading list tutorial!
    My question about the reading list; I tried to make a new list, but it won't let me create any. I wonder if maybe I did something wrong? I tried to create a new list by going to Edit Lists ---> Wrote a name for the list, the clicked Create List but nothing happened. I tried to click Update Lists button but it does nothing. Thank you beforehand for answering! (I hope my English is understandable ;;;;; )

    Did you Enable The Reading List? (Reading List -> Global Settings -> Enable Reading List)

    It's the only problem I can think of...

    Your English is good though, no worries! ^^)/

    Thanks!

    Yes, I did enable the reading list but I am still unable to make a new list. I'm using Chrome, but I tried to make list with other browsers (firefox, opera) and it still does nothing ^^;;;

    When you click create list did you scroll down and check if your list is in the 'create lists' area? If it is there, then click update lists and your list will appear in the blue top boxes. (you have to create first, then update. Don't check mark it because it will be deleted.) If not, then ...

    I tried again with different browser and this time I was able to make new list with Opera. I'm not sure why Chrome won't let me make new lists. But thank you everyone for your help~! :sushi_singing:

    If Chrome isn't working for you then something is blocking the javascript files. Do you have any plugins that might block them? Also, try turning off your adblock on Chrome to see if that'll work.

    What do you mean by not having your reading list yet? As in it's not enabled? If so...

    tony never really gave a concrete number, iirc. i only remember he said 'few times/day'. if i were to make a guess, i'd say at most 4/day, at least 2/day. (because i once waited 4 hours, to no avail).
