No "flipped" options when creating work-work relationships

It used to be possible to create a work-to-work relationship in either direction -- for example "y is contained within x" as well as "x contains y".

Since the new series system went into effect, the relationships can only be created in a single direction ("x contains y"), which means that to add a relationship, one must be on the page of work x; it's not possible to create the correct relationship from work y.

I found this bi-directionality useful and hope that removing it wasn't a deliberate decision.

There's now a little up and down arrow to the left of the relationships that will flip the order of the works.

Closing as not a bug.

The icon doesn't show for me (de.librarything site).

I see it when I'm on the .de site. Maybe it's your browser?

Not my browser: On de.librarything.com I see a broken icon (little box with numbers in it); on librarything.com I see the arrows.

I see an up and down arrow icon when I look at librarything.de with Chrome

>1 spiphany: Could you provide us with an url so we are sure we are talking about the same thing? (It's always a good idea to give a clear example of a bug.) Thanks!

When I look at de.librarything.com the button is there, but it's showing a little box instead of the arrow icons.

AH. Yes. This is another CORS bug. I'll have to figure out a better way to serve that content but my attempt at circumventing this last week was a failure.

Not sure if this is the same bug, but I'm not seeing anything in the arrow box. Chromebook running Version 86.0.4240.77

closing. I think this is no longer and issue due to changes with international LT domains.
