creating new shelves
has anyone else running firmware 2.1.5 tried to create a new shelf and had it take forever?
i tried creating several today, and on average it took 1 minute 35 seconds between pressing the button to create a shelf (on the page where you name it) and being redirected to add books to the shelf. it was taking long enough that yes, i timed it several times on my stopwatch ... i don't remember it taking this long, but it's also been a while since i created new shelves i think. is this amount of wait time normal? am i just being impatient? |

As Peter said, I've reported on this elsewhere. Kobo definitely know. Also, how long it takes to create the shelf depends on how many shelves you have. I also make a point of adding a book to the shelf when I do this. If the shelf is empty and you open it, it goes to the add books screen and takes nearly as long as creating it in the first place. |
