Anyone know why there are no series pages on the UK or Aus stores?
Have they never had any?
Or did they vanish when the new series facility came in?
-
I've had series pages for years (UK) - just checked and they seem to be still there. Or maybe I'm the only one who can see mine or something.
-
I just did some checking.
4th series on UK is missing 9-12.
5th series on UK is missing 7.
Other 3 series seem to be fine.
But no series at all on AUS.
-
That's very weird, though there was a spell when it didn't seem to be automatically adding new books to the series page - that was cured (for the UK) when the new series thing came along and you could add them yourself. I've looked at the Australia results for my 21 book series and there isn't a series page at all. But I can't say I've ever checked that outt before.

The new series thing doesn't appear to be working for the UK. The ones missing are the ones since the new facility came in.
I put in a 'fix this' note to KDP, and noticed that only US, UK, and DE stores have series pages. I asked for AUS ones as well.
It's no wonder my sales in Aus are less than 5% of my total, when the store doesn't display the full series at all. It's too hard for people who discover the latest book to go back and buy the previous ones.

Checked the UK store.
The trilogies which had the series pages set up years ago are okay. The new one, that I set up the series page via author central is not.
Another issue - my permafrees aren't free in the UK anymore. I should check the other stores but I need to cool off first.
Permafrees not free in Canada or Australia either. :HB
-
Aus and Canada have never had series pages.
-
All my 21 books in the series are correctly appearing on the UK site but the 20th took almost forever to be added to the series, and I added the 21st myself as the series thingy had come along by then.

Anyone else having permafree issues?

Just checked in the UK - mine all seem to be showing as free at this moment, but I see there's a sale on my sales report for one of them some time this month (thanks - I hadn't noticed that - definitely something to watch).
