Now sharing the url for my wishlist needs a login.

https://www.eatyourbooks...&wishlist-books=true

This breaks the feature for sharing to others as gift idea as likely they won’t log in. It used to work fine.

Sorry about that. We introduced compulsory sign-in in order to reduce search engine/spam bot traffic that was severely slowing down the site speed. Our developers should be able to exclude the wishlist page. I will get them to work on it immediately.

Fair enough! Fingers crossed this gets implemented in time for Xmas!

There is now a shareable link for wishlists that does not require anyone to sign-in to view it. Select your Wishlist filter in the Library and the link to copy the URL for your wishlist will appear. Click it and the link is now saved and you can paste it into a text or email for your friends and family.
