This author page doesn't list the work. I changed the author's name after the book was input. That was last week.

Author page: http://www.librarything.com/author/compagniegnraledegop
work page: http://www.librarything.com/work/4645795/book/25167223

I fixed it by clicking on the work's 0 members link a couple times, as suggested in another thread.

Thanks!

It's not quite fixed.

This page is OK: http://www.librarything.com/author/geophysiquecompagnie&norefer=1

But, when I click from my library, I still end up here: http://www.librarything.com/author/compagniegnraledegop

Also, I can't combine. I get a message that says "this author is no longer in the system"

ETA - I want to combine with author CGG

How strange, now clicking on the author brings me to an author page that is combine with author CGG... but, my work isn't listed on the author page. The significance for me is that I want to combine my book with the one book under author CGG. I can't do that right now.

You can try re-adding your book?

No, that doesn't work. See the "No Author" thread and several other threads reporting the same problem. So far no response of the development team

6> You're not in a position to try this. What is suggested was that dchaikin removed it from it's library and then re-added it.

I have the same problem as DChaikin with dozens of books and authors. Deleting and adding a book in my own library did not work. Hence my comment.

Ah, okay. Mea culpa.
