New Website Feedback
-
Playing on it again right now and noticed a mild inconvenience. There's the cool ability to redeem credits without having to switch pages, but there's also the alternative retailer links there too. When you buy with a credit though, you lose access to the alternative retailer links since the button just changes to "In Library". It would be nice if you could still get access to them. (Also maybe add Physical Release Links too.)
-
When trying to sign on using my Ipad (IOS) it gets stuck loading.
-
When I tried to purchase credit from the beta site I was redirected to the usual page but the prices seem a bit off.
I didn't try going through with the order so maybe it's just a display error.
-
@Raitoiro Getting credits as non-member costs some real premium $$$, apparenly.
Probably something similar to how going to how /redeemCredit won't load all required data. (or you just plain forgot to log in on main site as opposed to beta, logins may be separate and there is probably no reason to change that).
-
@_08 Yeah I don't think I was longin on the main site only on the beta.
Doesn't seems like I could have purchased credit anyway, so probably not something that need to be fix. -

under user screen would be nice to be able to clear the NEW after you are done downloading it also if the book is updated maybe have a tag a different color labeled UPDATED for anytime an ebook gets updated.
-
so looking at the bata site and i see this when you go to buy and I have to say I absolutely LOVE it
"Note: Availability on Amazon may be limited due to their unpredictable moderation policies."

Found 2 bugs:
I can't display Rokujouma's page on my phone, first it display "Loading..." then "Failed to load data: Error: Request failed (500):".
Also Otherside Picnic's page lists the first vol of the manga in the upcoming volumes.
-
Rokujouma's series page isn't loading on desktop either.
-
It might be a small part in the grand scheme of things, but the fact that he calendar menu and its entries use the same style makes it appear as if it there was an alignment error, and this grinds my gears.
As an easy mitigation, I'd recommend to simply make the border a bit thicker.

@strangeattractor said in Beta Website Feedback:
There doesn't appear to be such a setting in the Amazon Silk browser that I am using.
Like most accessibility settings,
prefers-reduced-motion
is a system-wide device setting that applies to all apps, including web sites. Individual apps or sites shouldn't have this setting; they should honor the system setting.In Android devices like the Fire the setting is at “Settings” → “Accessibility” → “Remove Animations”. I believe the setting was introduced in Android 9 “Pie”, so it should be there on the Fire 7 or later. (My test device is a Fire 5 so I can't confirm.) If the setting isn't there, or if it isn't propagated into the browser, then it will be time to lobby Amazon.
In other devices the setting is called “Reduce Motion” (Macs & iDevices) or “Show animations” (Windows).

On the titles page where you can filter out particular things, there should be a j novel club filter to remove the heart ones, just like there is a filter for the opposite.

The beta calendar link for WATARU!!! volume 2 leads to a 404: https://beta.j-novel.club/v/wataru-the-hot-blooded-fighting-teen-his-epic-adventures-in-a-fantasy-world-after-stopping-a-truck-with-his-bare-hands-volume-2
I believe it is because the actual link removes the "in a fantasy world" part for some reason: https://j-novel.club/v/wataru-the-hot-blooded-fighting-teen-his-epic-adventures-after-stopping-a-truck-with-his-bare-hands-volume-2

Under the user profile, it's cool that there's a "New" section for the newest releases. It would be nice though to be able to click the "New" and make it go away like it's a notification.
Edit -
Also, can the calendar for previous months be archived or something? It's a bit weird that when I check previous months, it's empty. I just noticed when August is already gone despite it still being the 30th.
-
sadly, trying to log into the beta site just gives me an blank error page, it seems to log me in as it allows me to follow and keeps track of whats already been followed but anytime i click on "User" / "Log in" tabs it just goes white.
tried logging out of old site + forums, clearing cache, and trying in-private to see if being logged onto both sites was the problem. on chrome btw, same thing happens on edge as thats the only other browser i have on pc -

Nothing from September 1st or 2nd shows either, and most of the 3rd as well. Those dates have releases on the old calendar, though.
-
@SoullessMinion Have you bought New Life+ previously? I was having the same issue but talking with Daiz we managed to figure out that owning those volumes would break the new site user profile for me.
-
@Aruseus493 yeah, got all 3 volumes
if that's the issue, i can only imagine it'd either be from starting with [brackets] or due to not being able to pull book info from jp site like other series' do -
@SoullessMinion Yea, @Daiz removed all 3 from my account and that fixed the issue for me.
