Could it be this one? Moonlight by KatieK It’s not complete, unfortunately, and it’s been some time since it was last updated.
-
Formans Familia by Michally was taken down by the author from every site where they had posted it. We ask that if anyone has a copy, they do NOT offer it here. We respect the author's wishes to have the story removed, and ask that our users do the same.

It would very much depend on the individual story. This is far too general a question for me to answer, since some authors do return to stories after a lengthy hiatus, while others might be left unfinished. The Date Last Updated simply indicates when the author last posted new content, and isn’t an indicator of completion, future activity, or anything else. We don’t insist that authors label stories as works in progress or completed, although those tags are available for use.

Naruto and the Brothel by sneaky666 Also right here on AFF: Red Light Kunoichi by DragonKnightRyu

I’m going to have to refer this to @DemonGoddess and @manta2g who are the code experts. The issue I’ve seen in the past is that reset to Anime anytime you edit in Currently Reading, but if your subdomain isn’t automatically resetting to Anime, and you’re changing nothing but the body text, then I’m stumped. Update: Having finally had the time, I set up a test via my own account, and when I tried to edit text in the body, I experienced the same problem. I reset the subdomain, re-entered the story ID, and still was told I needed to add a valid story ID. Retyping the story ID did not solve the issue. So, I’m verifying that this is a legitimate glitch with editing in the Currently Reading section of the Member Profile.

Fanfic Pocket Archive app - scraping stories from AO3
BronxWench replied to BronxWench's topic in Great wall of ...
It looks like the Google Play Store axed it, probably due to complaints. But, yeah, it’s amazing how many people will download something like this. How hard is it to just go to AO3? They must have a mobile version by now. Even we do at AFF, and ours works, based on the number of “butt-dial” reports I get in the staff email. -
Fanfic Pocket Archive app - scraping stories from AO3
BronxWench posted a topic in Great wall of ...
So, a good friend alerted me to this app, available from the Apple App Store. (The Google Play link returns as a 404, so Google may have taken this app down.) But, from the developer’s own words: Link to the app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/fanfic-pocket-archive-library/id1047221122 The friend who alerted me says AO3 isn’t willing to do anything, but they have requested a takedown for their stories that were scraped and published in the app’s library. Let’s see how that goes. Now, here’s my little rant. The app provides for an optional monthly subscription service, and as we all know, the idea of making money IN ANY FASHION from fan fiction violates copyright law, vis-a-vis the Fair Use Act provisions by which we all get to write our fan fictions. The developer asking for “tips” is also a clear violation of Fair Use, in my opinion. It’s why we don’t allow Patreon or other self-funding services to be linked on AFF’s archive. (Obviously, AO3 has a more generous interpretation of the law than I do, but then again, they have a deep-pocket not-for-profit backing them, and a legal team for when issues arise, so take that for what you will.) I took my stories off AO3 some time ago because I find their moderation uneven and biased, so I might not have a dog in this particular fight, but it’s worth sharing, I think, in case any of our authors want to check for their works posted on AO3, and scraped by this app. -
I’ve updated your email address, so if you use the gmail account for the password reset, it should work for you.

I’ve tagged our tech admin to see if she can shed any light on the password issue. I’m not a coder myself, and I have no direct access to the database to review or amend passwords. We limit that level of access very strictly for security reasons, which I hope everyone will understand and support. The only thing I can do is to update an email address, which might resolve some of the password reset issues. We’re seeing the problem primarily with accounts using a Microsoft email client: Hotmail, Outlook, or Live.com. Once the password is successfully reset, you will have full access to the account, and can even revert back to the Hotmail address if you prefer it.
-
Are you using Hotmail, Outlook, or Live.com as well? Every bit of information helps us in trying to identify and correct issues.

At the very top should be a dropdown for the subdomain where the story is posted. It may be defaulting to Anime, which would be why you are getting an error, unless the story is in the Anime subdomain. It’s frustrating to have it default to Anime when you’re only editing, I agree.

Question marks replacing quotation mark in stories.
BronxWench replied to catsamurai16's topic in Archive Tech Support
I am not an Opera expert, but I think you might need to add a Chrome extension to allow for text encoding changes. It used to be in Opera’s View > Text Encoding menu, but that was eliminated some time ago. Opera now uses Chrome extensions for that function. Hopefully we have actual Opera experts who will chime in as well, if I’m mistaken. -
I’ve no idea why it’s happening, but I suspect it’s to do with the Hotmail email address. Microsoft tightened its security for its email clients after last year’s breach, and it’s had the unfortunate side effect of creating havoc for us. Our hosting company had taken steps to resolve the issue, but if Microsoft made any new tweaks, we may be back to issues again. Hopefully @DemonGoddess can shed some light on this, since she is the tech admin, and far more savvy.

Is this the link you are using? I’ve been able to reset myself with this link: http://members.adult-fanfiction.org/reset.php Just a few reminders about passwords; they need to be between 8-12 letters and/or numbers long, no punctuation or special characters, and they are case sensitive.
-
The issue with the Hotmail email addresses should be resolved. As far as logging in, where is the problem? Is it a forgotten password? If so, I’ll need to have our tech admin check that for you, since I can’t access the database directly to see passwords.

Since we seem to have a troll using this thread to behave in a manner unbecoming, and I have absolutely no patience left for Internet trolls, I’m locking this thread.

We have a FAQ for that: http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/topic/63121-how-to-use-search/

Is this a story of yours? If so, and you’re looking to publish it to AFF as well, we’d need to know the appropriate subdomain and fandom (if applicable) for the story before we’d even consider making a category. If the story is not yours, we’d prefer to have this request come from the actual author.

I’m showing you as last logged in today at 03:18:57 GMT-6 (which is the time zone for our hosting company). I’m not sure why you need to update the account, since you’re up to date as far as the archive code changes. If you are resetting your password, remember that it must be letters and/or numbers ONLY—no punctuation, special characters or other symbols. It must be at least 8 letters and/or numbers long, but no more than 12. And if you do use letters, the password is case sensitive, so anything you set as a capital letter must always be a capital letter. You also need to log in with the same email address that was used to make the account, and not with your pen name. That’s what our software looks for, and it’s got to be an exact match.

I’ll refer you to this post: http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/topic/67980-what-happened-to-the-chemist/?do=findComment&comment=426162 So far, it looks like TheChemist hasn’t been able to recover that story/
