Logos Website New Menus Need to be Fixed

I really don't like one bit the Logos New Menus on the Website. They are clumsy and don't give you the results you're looking for.

For example, when you click on the rentals option you don't get any rentals. When you click on "New products" you don't get the new products you used to get (the new releases and broken collections, etc.) you get mixed new products on prepub which you can actually see when you go to the prepub page and use the drop down menu. So it's pretty much all cluttered and clumsy - are they going to fix it or is this the way it's going to look from now on? I hope not!

I don't keep track of the website changes... are these very new? Is it possible that the site is just in transition? I did find one error: The free book of the month isn't Bonhoeffer!

That's one among many...so yes, you gave me the key word..."Transition" -- so it's a matter of time before they correct it.

Hi, DAL, I have some questions regarding your feedback:

For example, when you click on the rentals option you don't get any rentals.

By this do you mean that you aren't seeing rental prices in the search results? When I click on Store -> Special Products -> Rentals, the results returned have a 'Rent It' option on their product pages.

When you click on "New products" you don't get the new products you used to get (the new releases and broken collections, etc.) you get mixed new products on prepub

I'm not replicating this. Clicking on Store -> New -> New Titles returns me a large selection of recent products, include Live, Pre-pubs, and Community Pricing items. Are you seeing something different?

Thanks!

I don't see this problem either. Works for me.

I think he wants to see only live products. In general, I agree on this point. Did the old site link to https://www.logos.com/products/search?sort=newest&Status=Live ? --- Because I have that link bookmarked, and I use it all the time. I have separate bookmarked links for newest pre-pubs and newest CP items. It's better to see them separated out---to see what I can get now, and see what I need to plan for.

I got it now! But, concerning the New products, I meant what Todd said I meant. It should only show products that have recently gone live or broken up collections and not new CP or Pre-pubs - that just clutters the website. I can see new pre-pubs and new CP's by going there, I don't need them in the New product section.

It used to -- and should! -- show only new live products.

The whole reason I monitor that link is to find the things I want to add to Wish Lists, but which you haven't allowed me to add earlier: i.e. prepubs that have just gone live, or collections that have just been broken up.

Are you aware you can filter by Status "(left-hand menu) and choose between Live, Pre-Publication and Community Pricing?

Of course, but that's an extra step.

Everyone, the "Live" status facet has been restored to that menu item. Thanks!
