Guest JaneConteny B Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 I recently picked up an old fanfiction i had been writing, and after maybe two and a half three years I reread the summary and decided to edit it. I did a quick select all delete and rewrite. I didn't realize my content codes had been deleted as well. I went back after the fact to try and re-add those and there was no option. I tried hand tying them and now i have maybe 12 characters left in my summary limit. Is there anyway to re-add the content codes without having to repost my entire 12 chapter fiction? Thanks much, Janey B. Quote
ApolloImperium Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 Janey - Content codes can only be selected from the list when a story is uploaded and do not count towards summary totals then, once that initial save is done though any edits are reflected in the word count for the summary, I apologize. One thing you can do though, is put your summary and either "See A/N top of Ch 1 for full content codes/warnings" or list the most impacting codes and then in an AN in chapter 1 list all of them there, or a combination of the two, what ever works out best character wise. We just need the content codes in to CYA (well, cover my ass technically) and it doesn't matter if they are in the summary or chapter data, so long as they are there and correct. I would caution though that if you explore any possible squicks or phobia topics like non-con/mpreg/minor that you put them in the summary, users tend to prefer to be warned before they click on a story, but that's a suggestion not a requirement. Like I said so long as they are either summary or top of chapter. Sorry for the slight ramble, that's what happens when I answer member questions at 1am...! Quote
Guest Ivvy Posted May 19, 2011 Report Posted May 19, 2011 What if I put a content code then realized it was not accurate? Is there no way to remove it? Quote
DemonGoddess Posted May 19, 2011 Report Posted May 19, 2011 Of course there is. You go in to your user cp, select "edit story" and remove the codes which don't fit. The codes are added to the end of the summary, so that's where you make your edit, is the summary field. Quote
