## Beschrijving

Supplying an [ISBN](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard_Book_Number)(
and, optionally, a Title) will display a cover image of the relevant book with a
link to that book’s page on [Google Books](https://books.google.co.za/) using the
Google Books API.

Using the Widget you can choose whether to:

 * Force all calls to Google to be HTTPS, instead of the API returned HTTP
 * Pad the Image (selected by default, uses internal CSS)
 * Display a Box-Shadow (selected by default, uses internal CSS)
 * Choose Alternate Google Country (defaults to “Worldwide”)

as well as

 * Decide whether you would like to use a Title
 * Define the ISBN-10 or ISBN-13 of the book.

### Usage

 1. Activate the Plugin via “Plugins”  “Currently Reading”  “Activate” (if you hadn’t
    already done so).
 2. Go to “Appearance”  “Widgets” and drag the “Reading” widget into whichever Sidebar
    you choose.
 3. In the “Currently Reading” widget, you can then customise it further.

## FAQ

### I get a ‘*Warning: file_get_contents … : failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden*’ Error in my logs and no books are displayed. Why is this happening?

Your web-site has been configure not to allow outgoing HTTP requests and you have‘
Use Google API’ enabled.

Please de-select the ‘Use Google API’ option to use the direct connection instead.

### I get a ‘*No Google Books Entry Found for ISBN:NUMBER*’ on my Blog… Why?

Sometimes Google Books does not return any valid responses on ISBNs. Try the following:

 1. See if you can find an alternate ISBN for the book
 2. Toggle the “Use Google API” option
 3. Find the eBook on Google’s Books Web Page and use its ISBN

### Are you planing to insert other sources than Google Books to the Currently Reading widget?

I’ll have a look into supporting Amazon, though they do make you jump through hoops
to use their API (which is the reason I settled on using Google Books to start with).

### Is there a way to get this plugin to do a library of all of your books into WordPress?

It’s not currently possible with this plugin, no.

I’ll give it a bit of thought and see if I can extend it to do that; but it will
most likely need the creation of an alternate plugin to do that.

This would likely require its own database table to do properly, as well…
