Adding Goodreads widget
-
I’m trying to add my personal Goodreads widget to the blog I share with my friend. It’s telling me that it is not correct though I’ve copied the numbers directly from where I am supposed to get them from. I think it’s because my account on goodreads is old and has a small number it’s not being recognized. Here it is for reference.

The widget from Goodreads itself that I put in through HTML does not update
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Thanks for getting in touch. This is odd. I tried clearing the site cache and that didn’t make a difference. I will keep working on this and report back to you here.

Are you also an author on GoodReads? I was looking over our support documentation here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/goodreads-widget/#for-goodreads-authors
The Author ID could be different than the reader ID. Try the author ID and see if that works.

@averybookishgirl can you try one more thing too? Please make sure you’re logged into Goodreads, and then try adding the ID.

I also have been logged in when I try to add the widget, my ID that I get off my page from the url is 3889544 but it gives me the following message still.
You need to enter your numeric user ID for the Goodreads Widget to work correctly. Full instructions.
