1. Box will have Announcement as title, different color than author note
2. Box with your pfp and name will appear
3. Blue footnote numbers will appear and you can click to on them to make the footnote extend
hide whatever you want to hide yet want others to see. Often used for images.
Can you use Announcement to introduce a Character in the story? Or does that get in the way? especially with the triangle warning symbol?

You usually use announcements for things that are not a part of the story itself... Like... I dunno, announcing a change in release schedule or something.

If you just want a box, then the table function might work for you. Otherwise I would use spoiler with title:
[spoiler title="text"]
Add whatever you want here[/spoiler]

Thanks @tiaf !
I have been looking for an alternative to table. Mobile like to break tables, a bit too much.

Just means that they haven’t clicked on other chapters than the first chapter

Not sure about this. I've had people commenting on my middle chapters who were showing up as 1/#. There are also people who have read the current chapters and only then hit subscribe. even though they read them all right now they are marked as 1/#

It normally changes for me when I read the chapters. But it could be that it changed because I liked the chapter. Otherwise it must be because the reader bookmarked the chapter.

I think there's an option in the settings so that if you read a chapter, it'll automatically be bookmarked. You might have that enabled. A lot of people don't and don't bother bookmarking the chapter they're actually on so they continue to be shown with only the first.

I have a question! At the bottom of all the forums it says I don't have the privilege to post. I know this is not the right place to ask for help but I'm desperate :(

I believe this is a recently implemented feature.
Newly created bot accounts were spam starting threads.
To prevent this, I think new accounts will need to wait before being able to start new threads.
Seeing as your account was created very recently you will need to wait.
For the specifics you will probably need to ask Tony.

Just a question for you guys, will it be a problem if I start a thread to discuss with others on how to improve reproductive biology and anatomy of alien characters with other members here? It's a nonhuman character.

But there will be no displays of pornographic features, the posted images will only include the skeleton frame and etc. and none of the fleshy stuffs.

Will that be alright or just NO?

It's fine, post it in either General Chat or Author General.

A1) If you had changed the order of your table of content then the anti-cheat system kicked in to prevent people from trying to move their old chapters to the main page.
A2) If you had released a chapter before that had the same title/chapter content before and deleted it just to upload it again then the anti-cheat system kicked in to prevent people from trying to move their chapter back to the main page.
Hey... I'm really having trouble with this, and I think I've been diligent in making sure the problem isn't my end.

- I've not been doing any order swapping or reuploading.
- I've been leaving over 12 hour gaps between posting.

And still none of my last six updates ever hit the 'Latest Updates' feed on the main page.

I guess something I did somewhere must have accidentally activated the anti-cheat system... so what should I do now?

Is there a way to get my future updates back on the feed, or has the anti-cheat system branded me a ne'er-do-well for all time?
And does this CHEAT! status just ban updates to my one current story from reaching the feed, or does it apply to any other stories I might start?

Just a question. Will it be considered a story or not, if I only post chapters of drawings or pictorial storyboards without written texts?

Or does it still need to require both text heavy writing and occassional pictures in order to count as a story on SH platforms?

Writing Prompts are fairly straight-forward. You should just share writing prompts with other users in that subforum.


Discussions and Writing Tips are well... To discuss writing as a whole, and to share/ask tips from other authors.

Author General is for talking about anything you want to, but with other Authors... This does have a heavy overlap with Discussions and Writing Tips.
