  13. Allow or disallow review notifications Whether you wish to stop getting emails notifying you of new reviews for your stories, or if you had disabled it in the past and now wish to re-enable then this is how you do it: Ensure you're logged in to the archive. Then click the three bars at the upper left corner, and click on your username. A drop-down menu will appear. Click on “Edit Profile” to be taken to this page: Click “Review Notify” and select “Yes” or “No” from the field that will appear at the bottom of the Profile page. Click the “update” button. And that's it!
  14. Allow or disallow anonymous reviews If you get trolled by registered authors leaving abusive reviews then we can warn or ban that author. But if you've been getting trolled by idiots leaving abusive anonymous reviews then there's actually little we can do. But there is something you can do – apart from simply deleting the reviews – and that's to no longer allow anonymous reviews. Here's how you change that. Ensure you're logged in to the archive. Then click the three bars at the upper left corner, and click on your username. A drop-down menu will appear. Click on “Edit Profile” to be taken to this page: Find “Anonymous Reviews” and select “Yes” or “No” from the field that will appear at the bottom of the Profile page. Click the “update” button.

  20. How do I edit or delete a chapter? The processes are very similar to adding a new story. Ensure you're logged in to the archive. Then navigate to the Story Manager in the desired archive. A new screen will load showing you all the stories you've uploaded to that category. Find the story that you wish to edit, and click the green EDIT link to the right: This brings you to the same screen as when you created the story. Scroll down, until you see the following: Clicking the EDIT link to the right of the already-posted chapter will let you edit that chapter. Remember to save your changes! Clicking the DELETE link to the right will delete that chapter. And clicking the red DELETE STORY link will delete the entire story. Please keep in mind that once a story is deleted, it is not recoverable. It is permanently removed from the archive, so please make sure you have a copy saved elsewhere. The + ADD CHAPTER link allows you to add another chapter to the story. The process is exactly the same as when you added the first chapter. You are brought to the editor screen: Title your chapter, add in the chapter text, and then click the link to SAVE CHAPTER.
  21. How do I edit my story info? Do you want to rewrite a story summary? Fix up the disclaimer? Perhaps add some more content tags? There's an easy way to do it. Just follow these steps. The processes are very similar to adding a new story. Ensure you're logged in to the archive. Then navigate to the Story Manager in the desired archive. A new screen will load showing you all the stories you've uploaded to that archive. Find the story that you wish to edit, and click the green EDIT link to the right: This brings you to the same screen as when you created the story. You can now edit your story information, including the title, the disclaimer, the summary, and you can add tags as well. You can even, if you posted the story to the wrong sub-category, move your story around within the archive. When you are finished, click the UPDATE STORY link to save your changes.
  22. How do I upload a story in the archive? The first thing you need to do is to ensure you're logged in. Use the dropdown menus to find the correct archive for your story. There is a dropdown for Original Writing, and one for FanFiction, which has submenus for the various sub-archives. Each archive will have an option for the Story Manager for that archive. Click on the Story Manager, and you will see a link to ADD NEW STORY: When you click on the icon to the right of the subdomain you want, it’ll take you to a new page, where you can begin to add all the relevant information regarding your story, such as title, summary, disclaimer, etc, as well as content tags. It is very important that you choose all the appropriate tags relevant to your story. Start with the title and description/summary: Then select the story rating from the dropdown, and start clicking checkboxes for all story tags: Then add in your disclaimer, and choose whether or not your story is publicly available, whether other members can add chapters, and add co-authors if you have them. You can also link to your review reply thread on the forum, and to any story discussion thread on the forum: Now you click the CREATE STORY link, which will bring you here: Scroll down, and you will come to this: Click on the ADD CHAPTER link, and you will be brought here: Title your chapter, add in the chapter text, and then click the link to SAVE CHAPTER.
