How to add a story?

[Seaman]

Since the update I’ve been going through the stories I already had on the site repairing the slight borking they received.  This morning I tried adding a story in the Originals section of the archive and found no place to put in the story’s text.

In the Story Manager from the top I see fields to enter the story title and description, the category and content rating, the check boxes for the tags and the field for a disclaimer, story visibility (a new one) and the chapter permissions with the co-author fields, and the optional forum links.

At the bottom is a Create Story button instead of Update Story as in the screen for editing a story but clicking on it does nothing.  There is no chapter list – no surprise there – but neither is there an Add Chapter button.

I’ve tried using both Edge and Firefox to make sure it is not a browser issue but both are the same.  What do I do to open the box where I can paste in my story?

In the upper right corner, you’ll see a “+” sign.  That’s where you add a chapter.  

When you are in the category you want to publish to, select the add button in the upper right corner, where you find your edit buttons.  Once you add the story, underneath all the linkage and whatnot, you’ll find the field to add your first chapter.  Once you add your first chapter, you can update and add more chapters.

On entering the Originals story manager I do see the + Add New Story button.  Since this is my first original it works, along with the larger Create Your First Story at the bottom to bring up the story entry screen.  There I can name the story, choose the category, etc.  Is this where the + sign is supposed to be?  Because there is none.  As the screen shot in the OP shows there is no field at the bottom to enter the text of the story.  There is a Create Story button at the bottom but it seems to be the one to use to put the story into the archive, the same as Update Story when editing an existing story.
