Ratings and Reviews

Can someone please tell me why when I search my book through BUY, I see the book has been rated and when I go to the download pages of them, I see no ratings (as in, 'this book has not been rated')?

Also, I recieved some reviews from the people that have bought/read the book already, most of them positive and now when I check the pages, the rviews are gone?

Re: Ratings and Reviews

It is strange that the ratings are showing in your spotlight but when you click on the book they disappear. I know that missing ratings has been an issue before and that sometimes they show if you change from UK English to US English at the bottom of the page under International but I have tried this and it does not appear to be the case here. Also a rating for an e-Book for example would not show up under the paperback version as they are different projects, though they have the same title. I think that you need to get onto Lulu about this and they will sort it out for you. I'm sure it's a bug in the programme because I've had similar experiences when I have given ratings (and reviews) for books.

Re: Ratings and Reviews

Ratings and reviews have disappeared from the download page for my novel.  I was also unable to post a review on someone else's book.

They used to be linked to WeRead when Lulu owned the place, now that they no longer seem to own it, the reviews etc seem to be 'broken.'

Re: Ratings and Reviews

On and off Lulu announce they are shutting the site for 'repairs' for a few hours. Perhaps they are some of the things they repair? But perhaps they don't shut the whole site down, just parts of the software?

Re: Ratings and Reviews

Some of my reviews disappeared for a day or so and then came back again.  New reviews are not showing and neither are reviews which I posted for other writers.
