Hi, Welcome to the PressBooks developers/user group. We use this google group for feedback/bug reports/feature requests/discussions. We may implement a more formal system for bug reports/tracking later.

* The best place to keep up to date with the PressBooks Plugin is on Github at: https://github.com/pressbooks/pressbooks

* Perhaps you would like to translate PressBooks? Please visit our translation page.

Important:

* the plugin should only be used with a fresh install of WP Multisite, not an existing WP blog

* if you'd like to test pressbooks, or don't care to set up WP multisite and install the plugin, you can use pressbooks.com for free(ish).

Ask questions at will!

All the best,
Hugh.
