Sharing highlights with goodreads for side-loaded books

Magog · 11-28-2017, 04:29 AM

Hello!
I have a problem with sharing book quotes with my goodreads account.
I read lot's of information in the Internet but nothing help.

Sharing highlights works fine for books bought from amazon.
For books loaded as personal doc sharing works only for facebook and twitter.
With ASIN-hack my reading progress published to goodreads successfully, but highlights sharing button is still disabled.

Are there any ways to publish highlights to goodreads for side-loaded books? I use calibre to send books to my kindle.

Thx!

Bumping this thread because I'm running into the same issue with Goodreads on my Oasis. Highlights from Amazon purchased books get synced to Goodreads but not from side loaded books. These are ePub files that I've converted to KFX in Calibre. I can see my highlights in "My Clippings" but they don't get transferred to Goodreads.

Does anyone know of a workaround to this issue? Thanks.
