What I’ve been running into with this are some issues using Edge.  If that’s what you’re using, try Chrome.

Try setting your theme (option in footer) to AFF NEW, which is the redone theme, if you don’t mind dark themes Bravo 6.

That did it! Thank you.

I see the new tags! 

When you’re uploading a new story, you can manually type your additional tags into that field, where you’ve added tags from our dropdown list. If the story is already uploaded, you might be able to edit that field from your Story Manager (https://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/topic/63419-how-to-edit-the-story-info-including-disclaimers-and-content-tags/ ). If you’re unable to edit that field, let me know, and I can add any tags you need.

You can actually manually input your own tags. We don’t provide pairing tags in the drop-down menu, for example, so some members like to add a tag upfront about the story's pairing. 
What we do ask, however, is that you stick to our tags for trigger topics. As an example, “Non-con” is not a valid replacement for the “Rape” tag. You can add Non-con, but you must have Rape clearly tagged. The same thing goes for anime-specific age related tags. Minor1 and Minor2 are not optional, or replaced by Shota or Loli.

Hello, sorry, it’s still me, I have a problem: I posted my fic but although i select S through Z ‘YOU’ it appears in ‘1 through F’ why???
I already tried to fix it twice.. should I delete it?
I don’t want it to appear in the wrong section, sorry!

edit: it seems the problem is fixed now, sorry for annoying you!

This is more of an issue for me on the reader side of things. There was a story I was curious about which I kinda wanted to read but the formatting of the first couple chapters is off.

I looked at some of the later chapters and they seem to fix it later but I’m a little put off by the first several chapters.

Would it be considered bad of me to point this out to the author? I feel it’s probably better to do one on one but I’m not sure how to go about doing that. Rather than get a moderator or admin involved in it directly. I could write a review but that feels too public and somewhat mean.

If the author has a forum account as well as an archive account, you could PM them.
Otherwise, unless they've put an email address or something in their profile, a review might be your only recourse. If it were me, I'd be glad for someone to point out a problem like that, even in a review. Remember, the author can always delete the review if they take offense -- or after they have fixed the problem you pointed out.

Huh.  I tried correcting it just before complaining but it hadn’t changed,  Maybe the Db took a while to update.

Neat!

Adding a WIP tag is personal choice. I’m happy to do it for you, of course, but we aren’t sticklers about WIP or COMPLETE. I do know some readers like those tags, though.

I added it in on the story, since you have it in the Promote A Story tag list.

Hi!  The new tag is added! 

First of all, we have no point system, so I have no idea what you bought. We have also never allowed login with a Google account. 
Given that you’ve posted this as “GUEST” I have no way of identifying your archive profile. If you’d care to share more information, I can email you the necessary links to activate your account and reset your password. However, unless you have an existing archive profile AND give me a way to find it, there’s nothing I can do to assist.

For the most part, yes. There are a few places where things transition from one room to another or other things. So in theory it works as a transition point.

As far as I know there is not a limit, at least not a low or mid range one.  However, if you do have transition points as you mentioned, I expect those would make good chapter breaks.

Well my story is not getting that close at the moment. Right now it’s about 25k words for this chapter and probably won’t top 30k words at most based on where I’m at in the story structure. But it’s the same story I was asking about regarding “Character driven non-linear” stories. Because it’s all one character’s journey, it feels right to create the story in a single chapter. I’m noticing though that I could probably break it up into about 10 pages a chapter. It’s going to make the story have a lot more. Almost every 10-15 pages there’s a transition of sorts into something new. That wasn’t necessarily intentional on my part but it seems to have worked out that way.

That makes a certain amount of sense. Especially the moderators reactions. This is definitely not that. The story is each chapter represents for the most part a single night experience. A bunch of stuff happens in that one night so I’m writing it as a single chapter. I thought it would be a much shorter chapter but I’m having too much fun with the story. I’m on the last part of the evening but it’s looking like at least 45 pages long if not closer to 50.

Which is why I asked.
 

On the practical side, I’d suggest against super long chapters too.  I’ve tried that on my potter fanfic years ago, reorganized/rewrote thinking it was a “good thing” with my highest being like 107k… nope!  Not only did I lose some details in that consolidation, I also lost focus to the chapter too.  Small details/scenes were now one/two sentences in basically a wall of text.  (Which it became as FFN.net somehow seemingly lost all my carriage returns, so it was one big “blob”; and a fast re-insert of them is how I uncovered FFN’s new 65k max per chapter limit.)
I’m still pulling that 107k old chapter apart right now with my “rewrite” … though I’ve now got at least 121 in its place, which is probably close to 1M words itself as I now hover around the 6-7k words per chapter average, and if the chapter nears the 10kword mark, I seek to break it up.  Even in my Jefferey episodic story, I’ll effectively do “part 1” and “part 2”.

The technical limit would be a @manta2g or @DemonGoddess type of question, and it’d be in bytes, not words. 
I know we’ve had some of the annual halloween/holiday round-robin submissions where it’s 50k max for the rules, but that’s more of a reader tolerance limit IMO.  In comparison, AO3 limits it to 500k characters, and FFN limits your documents to 5MB (and will stop adding to the word count at 65k words).

Yeah, that’s where I’m leaning especially as it got much longer. I couldn’t really do that with my gangbang series one shots. At least not the individual chapters. Do you know how long some of the longest chapters are? I’m just trying to get a sense of how this one compares.
 

I think most of the very long “chapters” in the archive are actually entire multi-chapter stories posted on AFF after another site changed its policies regarding certain types of content (think Hentai Foundry and FFN here). The posters uploaded entire stories as one chapter, and moderators who had to review the new postings for ToS issues were heard to whimper in the corners.
