Title: How do you load a book to Google Play?
Post by: okey dokey on January 14, 2019, 10:54:14 AM

I've had a Google Play account, but haven't used it for some time.
Now I'm fiddling with the site, but can't find a way to upload a book.
Is there a certain type of account I should have?

Is that link supposed to go to the dashboard or to a help document? I get something I have to click on, even though I'm logged into my correct google account, then all it does is take me to my dashboard.

If you have questions, okey dokey, I publish my books there. Also :( I guess BB's google play post is gone from kboards. Is she a member here?

ALSO - TIP! When I was putting stuff in KU, I deactivated titles. I thought those were lost because they didn't show up in my dashboard when I went to turn them back on again. Apparently the dashboard default display is X number ACTIVE. If you search by titles for titles you deactivated, they are there waiting to be activated again. Saved me a lot of work last night :)

Thanks Mammasan

Much appreciated.

FYI:  When you put your book up with them, it will say "Needs Attention" --this means they have to do something. Give it a couple days and if they still haven't put your book up, email them, and they will probably get it up within an hour.
