The front page of StatReport displays a list of ebooks for each ebook family.

The following change will soon be released in StatReport:

If an ebook family has more than 4 ebooks, the link "[more ebooks]" will appear after the fourth ebook. When you click on this link, the rest of the ebooks in the family will appear. The link will then turn into "[less ebooks]". When that is pressed the list shrinks to the original size.

This change will make long lists of ebooks much more managable and make the page load faster.

A separate change that recently occurred is the added [view] link that has been added to the list of ebooks on the front page. These link to where a specific ebook is on the web.

Every ebook has a landing page or a registration page. These pages are integrated into the sites they are part of. These pages are served by an ebookhost web server.

The ebook registration/landing pages are designed to look and be a part of websites.

For instance the ebooks on the techlearning.com website all have the design of the techlearning website, but if you look at the URL of a techlearning ebook registration page and compare it to other techlearning webpages, you will see that the ebook URLs are a lot different. Here's a techlearning ebook registration page URL: http://newbay.ebookhost.net/tl/atomic/1/ and here is a regular techlearning webpage URL: http://techlearning.com/content/epubs/index.php

Recently, at the request of a customer, registration dates were added to ebook reports. Now when you generate a report of all users for a specific ebook using StatReport, included in the data is the date each user registered or first gained access to that ebook.

These reports are also now automatically sorted by user-registration date. Newest users at the top.

Along with eBooks, comes StatReport, which is a data collection, reporting and statistics system for eBooks. StatReport provides all kinds of data about ebooks, like how many people have registered to see any ebook, the number of page views of each ebook page/spread, how many times an ebook has been opened etc.

Recently some bugs were fixed in StatReport.
Here's a list of them:

• Some eProofer links were broken. All of them were fixed today.
• Generating a report in excel providing all REO registered ebook users was broken. It was a setting in an underlying script setting the wrong amount of memory to be used. Fixed yesterday.
