    Hello! I️ also Have the problem of trying to register without receiving the email. I saw some people posted on here and received a reply. My email is oka.school@gmail.com. Thank you!

    I’ve emailed you the links that will allow you to register properly.

    Yeah, that’s what is weird. I used the same document editor for this type of thing. In fact, the final piece actually looks fine despite it being weirder format wise. For some weird reason, it seems to have happened when I copied and pasted it to the web.
     

    The RTE has been a bit odd lately. We’re aware of the quirks, and hopefully we’ll get those cleared up.

    Hey @BronxWench, sorry to be the person who keeps tagging you. I just wanted to know if anyone can tell me how to fix this issue.

    I’m not entirely sure what’s causing the initial font changes, but… I know in Word, you have the option to select a format for different sections of a document, like “Heading” or “Title” or “Normal” and those affect how the text appears. You can apparently set different fonts for some format options, I believe. If that’s what happened, you can fix that by selecting just one format for the entire document. I usually go with “No Spacing” myself.

    There’s a similar format option in my email interface as well—I use Thunderbird to see all my email addresses in one place. (Don’t ask. It’s complicated.) I can choose between things like “Body Text” or “Paragraph” or “Heading” which then formats my text. It’s useful if I’ve copy-pasted something into the email that doesn’t match the format of the email client.

    Other than that, you can try selecting all of your chapter in the Rich Text Editor, and then setting a single font and size for the entire document.

    There used to be a lot on here, but now I can only find one or two? Surely all those works weren’t deleted by their authors? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Some of them wound up in the wrong category. They all need to be reviewed and retagged before being moved, which I’m doing as I have the time. Bear with me—they’ll be back!

    Hi I’m having the same issue as one of the posters above. I forgot my password and when I click forgot password and get the email the page says password reset no longer valid. 

    I really do need a pen name or account url to locate your information. I can provide new links that will work, but I have no clue as to where to email those.

    I’m emailing you the links to reactivate your account. There’s been some changes to the archive, as you might have noticed, but once you get used to them, it’s really quite smooth. (Well, aside from a few lingering glitches, but we’re working on those, I promise!)

    We updated most of the FAQs for the archive, but once you’ve reactivated, you should have no trouble editing your stories, adding chapters, and so on, as well as adding new stories. And if you run into an issue, give a shout!

    I was trying to register when it said an email to my account, but I didn't get the email. 

    There are three separate accounts you’ve created. Can you confirm which of the three email addresses you want to use?

    I cvannot log on. It shows : user name, but asks for email. Put that in and neither password gets me anything. So this is 2 years after the prior. Are you even still a site, or are the stories dead?

    I’ll need a pen name or account url to be able to help.

    There’s a problem with the story editing. I’m finding that if you need to edit/update a story’s info (ie., title, summary, category, contents, rating, etc) it doesn’t update when you make the changes. This has been going on for quite some time now (at least 6 months as far as I’m aware), and I was just wondering if/when it was going to be fixed. This could be a major problem if you need to up the rating or add a content tag or change the status from incomplete to complete, or any other changes that need to be made. I have a few stories I need to do this with, so I would like to know if it will be addressed.

    Our coder is aware of the issue, and hopefully will address it at her earliest convenience. 

    In the meantime, if you need to update tags, you can post the story link and additional tags, and I can edit those for you.

    Hi, I didn't get the registration link in anywhere.

    My email is twarikk120@gmail.com 

    I’m not seeing anything in the database for that email address. Is there another email address you might have used?

    I tried to register and it worked but I never received any email.

    I tried to log-in but it didn’t work too. So I sent a request to change the password but still no email…

     

    Could you help me to register, please?

     

    Here is my email adress: jheldritch@gmail.com

    I’ve emailed you the links to activate your account and reset your password. Please follow the instructions in the email, and it should work.

    Thank you so much for the information and assistance with getting my account restored. I just tried to use the activation link you sent me (copied and pasted the link into a new browser), but the link took me to an AFF page that said “This activation is no longer valid”.  Perhaps the link timed out? Looks to have been 2 hours from when you sent the link to when I tried to use it.

    The link didn’t time out, and it most likely wasn’t invalid. Try the password reset and see if that works. It’s a funky glitch in the code that generates the fail message even when the activation works.

    Posting as a guest as I can’t login.

    Just read through these messages, and I was surprised to find that my issues with logging in (login attempts refresh the page and nothing else happens, password resets not working, etc) are the same issues people were mentioning back in 2022.

    I’ve had an account here since December 2004.  It’s been a few years since I’ve posted any stories, but I do like to come on every so often and read other stories or flip through the ones I created many years ago.  I’ve noticed that my username had changed from Scribbles to Shaznay unbeknownst to me, so I was pretty sure my account had been hacked.  I tried to reset my password to remedy this and the reset link takes me to an AFF page that says “This Password Reset is no longer Valid”.  

    Is this injection attack still being addressed two years later?  Shouldn’t logins and password resets be working by this point?

    I’ve visited this site for nearly 20 years.  I grew my writing abilities here, met friends here, and it will always carry a soft place in my heart for that.  I hate to see this site take such tragic hits like this.

     

    Hi!

    There are a couple of things going on, so let me work through them.

    When the site was attacked, we did go to read-only mode for a lot longer than we’d hoped. But, during that unpanned hiatus, we did a couple of things. We rolled out the new archive code, and we consolidated multiple accounts linked to the same email address. The older versions of the archive code allowed for that, but the newer versions ill not allow more than one account per email address. As part of that, we were instructed to merge the multiple accounts, with the oldest existing account being the one all data was moved to. It’s likely that is why your pen name changed.

    When we were ready to go live again, we sent out emails to all our members with links to reactivate their accounts under the new archive code. However, some email clients decided our mass emailing was actually spam, and either refused to deliver the emails or consigned them to some digital limbo. 

    And yes, there are still a few issues with the new code that need to be worked out, including the password reset link for members who have already reactivated their accounts. We’re aware of those issues, and @manta2g is working on them.

    In the meantime, looking at your account, you have not yet reactivated. I’m emailing you links which will allow you to reactivate and reset your password.

    Hello, my email is cupidslove.ray88@gmail.com. . I’ve been trying to reset my password and I have not been getting any emails even though it says an email has been sent to me. I’ve checked my spam and all other folders. Please get back to me at your earliest hour of convenience 

    I’ve emailed you the activation and password reset links that will get you back into your account.
