My Kobo updated itself yesterday and everything changed (whhhhhhy?) I ended up calling the help desk so for anyone with a Kobo who might run into the same problem as me, since the update the way you add a book to a custom shelf has changed. Used to be, there were three horizontal lines next to the book and you clicked them, selected 'add to shelf' and chose a shelf.
Now you press down on the title of the book. Not touch it; that opens it. Press down.
I registered my complete and utter lack of enthusiasm for this with customer support. Am I supposed to be a mind reader and intuit this new method?
I suppose I should be glad I persisted long enough that she went away and found out how to add books to shelves post upgrade; at one point I was told that updates do get rid of features we like and we have to live with it (why should I?)
I pointed out that Kobo doesn't do much and removing the ability to add a book to a shelf is one of those few things so why take it away?
She said maybe the three lines made the page look cluttered.
You can take minimalism too far.
