Hi, me again! ;-) This is a great module, I see now that I've played around with it a bit.
After importing items from Amazon, the form validation prevents you from editing them with the error message:
"your book title" is already registered
I had hoped to recategorize books after importing them using the new categories module.
I've attached a patch to help you find the code. The patch just comments out that part of the validation, so if anyone runs into this problem, it's a temporary fix. But the attached patch may cause you to enter duplicate books, so only use it if you're okay with that.

Prometheus6 commentedImports use the amazon_node type and are strictly filled strictly with raw Amazon data. I don't think that stuff should be edited...though it's automatically updated once a week, in case Amazon.com changes something (like price...).
I may look at the category module, but it won't be for at least a week. I always thought to use taxonomies to categorize the nodes.
Comment #2
benthere commentedYeah, it's just a fancy new module for taxonomies. People using taxonomies for amazonitems is probably more common at this point. Either module requires editing the nodes though.
Comment #3
Prometheus6 commentedClosed it too fast.
I just committed a fix. You don't get an ASIN field when you edit either node type, but it doesn't make sense to change that anyway. And your taxonomy things should be fine now.
Comment #4
benthere commentedYour new version in CVS seems to work good for recategorizing.
Thanks.
