I just deleted and reposted and the same exact thing happened again. It says action successful. It's showing up on my manage stories as 23 chapters but on the site it's only 22.

question for those of you having posting problems. How many of you have at least 20 or more people favoriting the story that isn't showing up on the most recent page?

Me.

I think we should clarify and say consistent posting problems? Cause some have a problem, delete and repost and it's all better LOL.

I don't even want to admit this to you in public Mare but...

Chapter 23 is there now. The reason being that it was *gulp* your fault.

lol See, there's this not so handy little administrator option called "Validate" and you somehow switched the validation off when you posted the chapter so it was waiting in the queue for a moderator to accept it.

Needless to say, I accepted it, it's now posted and I changed the setting on your story back to validate. :)

OK...it was there twice when I went back into manage stories so I deleted one.  Doesn't show up on the Most Recent Page but does show up when you click on the story itself.  Casual is a favorite of more than 20 people.  Very odd.

I am noticing a trend. Maybe if we ask people to unfavorite the stories they'll start working? lol
