Author spotlight

If one did not choose author spotlight initially, how can one add it after ebook is published? Is there a cost for this service?

Re: Author spotlight

Marianne,
Try revising the book by going to your projects and clicking on the title. It should prompt you to set up a Spotlight. There is no charge for the service.

Re: Author spotlight

Thanks for the tip, but with 11 revisions already, I do not wish to do another :smileysad:

Re: Author spotlight

I'm one of your early Lulus when the spotlight page was our marketing page. Anyway the title on mine now says:

's Page rather than Susan Kramer Page

 

When I try to correct this using the edit page link in the top bar I am directed to the forum.

 

The 2nd problem on the page is that recently the avatar became invisible.

 

The 3rd problem is that I would also like to be able to reaarange my product listing occasionally but am now also sent to the forum page.

 

I tried your suggestion to revise a book and click on the title but nothing came up to send me to a create spotlight page.

 

Over the past years I have been able to edit the page as needed but currently I'm sent to the forum.

 

Thank you for any direction:

Susan Kramer

Re: Author spotlight

Just an observation, that click on your title to get to author spotlight seeems to work in Internet Explorer. Does it not work in Firefox?

Re: Author spotlight

Check to make sure you aren't blocking pop-ups from Lulu.com in Firefox. For more information on Spotlights, please read the FAQ: http://connect.lulu.com/t5/Author-Spotlight-Storefront/Author-Spotlight-FAQ/ta-p/33185

Nick: it is really unfortunate that when you creat an author spotlight, it changes your book's pub date! How can we get this changed. Will my pub date change everytime I update my spotlight? I let Lulu know. I consider it a bug.
