  I have installed Goodgreads widget on my blog but unfortunatelly it is not updated according to my shelf on Goodgreads.com.
  I can see the book (I have chosen ‘currently reading’ shelf) but this is the title that was previously on this shelf. Now I have two books currently reading but they are not shown on widget.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi! Thank you for your prompt answer!
  I have copied my ID number from Goodreads and the widget works (it is on my sidebar). But on my blog there is still shown previous book I have read, not current books. I have refreshed the page and tried to rewrite my ID numer from Goodreads. I even uninstalled the widget and installed it one more time from the beginning and there is still the same problem – previous book.
  You can take a look at my blog:
  https://blogbooksandbeauty.wordpress.com/
  There is shown book “Wanting” but I have updated my goodreads.com account and shelf “currently reading” and added two other titles.

  Hi ,
  So while configuring your widget you selected Shelf as Currently reading right ?
  Also when you say you have added two other titles , could you specify where , also send us a link to your Goodread Profile page too.
  So we can check better , or can tag the staff for assistance.
  Hope to hear soon.

  Yes, I have chosen shelf “Currently reading”. On goodreads.com I have changed the status of “Wanting” book (from “currently reading” to “read”) and changed the status of two books from “want to read” to “currently reading”
  Here is the link for my goodreads account:
