If I have a story in my library from one site and try to add it from another site with the same title and author, it will ask me if I want to update the URL for the existing story. If I tell it no, then it asks if I want to add a new book with that URL.

Now, if I find that story on a third site and try to add it, it complains that it doesn't know which story to update, which is understandable, but then it just quits rather than asking if I want to add a new book with that URL.

So, how hard would it be to have it ask that?

It's not a big deal, so I'm not going to ask for it unless it's a pretty simple change. It takes a few steps, as I have to add an empty book, set the ID, and then Overwrite Always, but it's not difficult to do. It just would be nice if it asked...

PS: Before you ask why, I tend to add a book for each site because I've had quite a few authors get fed up with a particular site and remove their story. I have one story that was being published on at least three sites through book 1, but only one site is getting book 2 chapters.
