Can't retrieve certain items automatically from ISBN number,even though it's in worldcat.org

panomitrius · February 16, 2023

Happens to various books, for example with the ISBN number 9789144117393. I'm getting the error message "[JavaScript Error: "No items returned from any translator"]" from the console. I also made a debug logging with the ID: D649050394.

Any ideas?

Is it still failing for you? WorldCat was blocking you, but the same ISBN is working for me at the moment.

Were you adding many books in rapid succession?

Ah, cool. It works now. I was making a few attempts on an unstable connection, that might have been it!
