@Noughty - I'm continuing the points you raised on
this post on the other thread.

It's no big deal, but I think it could be related...

Ok. The search button when it launches a search against the Goodreads.com website is indeed the same issue that the cover and metadata downloads plugins have - Goodreads changing their website busted all three of them. I will push a release for fixing the Search button shortly.
However in terms of the "Goodreads.com matches for Title/Author" screen itself, this is working the same way it always did in terms of displaying results. You can quite often get no results because of the T&C Goodreads have with their API which means that some of their data they are not allowed to push through the API. That is one of the reasons why the "Search Goodreads.com" box is on that dialog - at least that way you can search their website and drag/drop a url onto the dialog. It would be nicer to not go through that charade but it only happens on a subset of the books and there is zero I can do about it.

This output has me intrigued. What action did you do to get those messages appearing? what is #shelf - is it a custom column? what is "contemporary", "pirates" etc? If you can give me the details of the custom column (what type it is), what actions you did etc we can go from there. If it was related to a goodreads thing, send me a PM with your Goodreads Sync.json file so I can take a look at your settings. I want to get this looked into asap so I can push a fixed Goodreads Sync release for the search button issue above.
