best in children's books, mcnab

hello, here is link to my copy of "best in children's books" #14- which has not sinked to the series.

https://www.librarything.com/work/22732784/edit/198059243

and should anybody be flummoxed that I entered mcnab as editor, it is because when I began, that is how she was referenced. later I saw someone label her as publisher. and of course, she does sometimes author certain of the stories. for consistency sake. my entries use her as the editor and then I, (primarily), label only other authors. there may be a few instances in which my pattern differs, because they came to me in that fashion and I have not, wholly, altered them to perfection. it was a significant ordeal just to get them in there at all. when I first entered them manually, they did not sync. so I tried ever so diligently to coax them over from amazon with correct numbers- which is not as easy as it sounds.

thank u

>1 EGBERTINA:
On the left side of the page you linked to, click Editions. That shows the various editions that are already combined with your copy, and has a link saying (combine/separate potentials), with the other Best in Children's Books 14 showing below it. Click the (combine/separate potentials) link and you'll be taken to a page where you can tick a box for your work and the other work, then click the Combine button to combine them.

>5 2wonderY: yes, that is #14. the brownie book, so to speak.

You can combine them by putting them both on the workbench - see that option on the right column of the work pages.

>4 r.orrison: okay. i was able to combine #14. and possibly - knock on wood- a few other 14's, too.

however, #21- above does not even offer an option to combine

I feel as though there are many glitches on this site today. so, I shall pause for awhile.

first glitch- I seem to have lost the "reply" button- so I can add a message from the bottom- but cannot specifically reply anybody, as I did earlier.

second glitch r.orrison- when I combined several works- it says there is a "green box". to read on the right- when it is there- it is grey. but mostly it is not there. I think I succeeded in small ways, nonetheless. however, as mentioned before, some of the books do not offer any way to combine / link them to the series

2wonderY: I tried the workbench option, but it didn't work- because there were two few options. it says you have two have 2 headings to combine, whereas some of mine have none or only one.

I got 3-5 books over into the series. but at least two books still by themselves

thank you
