I have "Training Rose" and its sequel "A Particuarly easy Pony to please," `Pony Play humilliation etc and I log in go to submit story and it tells me I don't have permission and yet my initial log in says I do have permission to post, this post sort of proves it.
HOW DO I SUBMIT A STORY NOW
I know i'm shouting Its frustrating
At present there are two ways the "old" system of story submission is still up and functioning.
The new system is located on the "Home" page, simply use the "Create" button and follow the steps below.
Thank you for your stories!

Hi guys,
I'd like to update my story but I can't find the "update story" button.
- Under "Submit Story" it only says: Message: No Content Type Selected
- When you enter the forum via the Submit Story link there's the "Create Article" dropdown, but nothing else...
Thx in advance!
cu, kimber
Both systems are up , still a few bugs in the new one. Work in progress Patience please.
The link is still there for the old system,,,http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/stories/story_submit.php
If your going in the Story section, don't use the one on the far left in the box, click onto the one under the "LibraryY header>>.submit story there
THANKS

There is no Create button on nthe home page only a Submit Story Button which leads nowhere.
Both new and old ways to submit lead to the same place, something is wrong here.

Thx for he prompt reply. In the chat I was told, that might be the reason. Also, I learned you're right in the middle of implementing the whole new system. *thumbs.up* Guys, you're doing a great job!Quote:

thx again, cu, kmb22
Angie, the link works: http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/stories/story_submit.php
just do it like I do it 'till the new system works how it should ^^
Torq,
I think there has been a glitch in the July 9th updates - not sure if it's your fault or mine but anyway, here are the problems with my stories ....
(1) No Accounting for Taste - Part 10 was put up on July 9 but the story was completed with part 9. Part 10 is not needed. Please delete.
(2) Such Sweet Sorrow - Part 5 put up on July 9 shoes up as chapters 9 & 10 of a different story (No Accounting for Taste) it should be Chapters 9 & 10 of Such Sweet Sorrow. If you don't have the file, I can re-submit.
Thanks (and apologies if this was a problem from my side).

Thanks Freddie will look into as soo as I can.
Be Well

Have I missed something? Are the levels of writer's block there but it's inactive? Sorry to post here but this seems one of the only areas that seems to have activity. If the Writers levels are down and I missed it somehow.. ok.. would just like to know. Thanks to anyone for any input.:confused:
Just now tried to post a new story, but after clicking 'send the story' get an error message:
---
You need at least provide the story title and upload the story file
Hit back button to go back!
---
But I did! All fields filled in. Tried twice using Opera, and again using Firefox. Same result.
Story name is "Dear Clitical". Story is 180KB, plain text, long lines.
Is there a problem with story submission atm, or am I missing something? Any suggestions?
Seems to be a problem with member recognition. I can't add reviews, because it seems as though I'm not logged-in. I get the "Seems you are not login. Go to the forums to login!" error, but when I come here, I AM logged-in... nevertheless, on the story-side of the site, I'm logged-out...Quote:

Well i'm trying to be a good girl and comment and recommend the stories that i enjoy on the main stories page, but almost all the time now it tells me i am not logged in and to refresh the page etc. I can assure you i have logged out and in many times now and each time i still get the same message, so i guess i wont be adding any more stories to my bookshelf unless i can figure out what's wrong. Anyone else have a similar problem?
thanks:)
Seems the "you're not logged-in" problem in the stories comment section is solved... Thanks for that ;)Quote:

Thanks for the info. I appreciate it! :)Quote:

Shouldn't both "readers" fields match in the first month of posting? Story is "Suki II: Sunshine Returns"
Thanks in advance,

When I open up a story, in many cases I get symbols like little squares in stead of quotationmarks. I have not changed anything on my computer. It seems to have started after the latest crash? Any ideas as to why or how to solve this?
greetings, Karel
I think there's something screwed up with the server setup and the character encodings. Or in the way they're converting the stories. I see the same things.
If you look at what encoding the browser thinks the page is (View->Character encodings in firefox and Page->encoding in IE8) it says UTF8. But is you manually change the encoding the browser is using to Western European (ISO-8859-1 in firefox) it fixes the issue and everything looks fine. So something is telling the browser to display it using the wrong character encoding.
On the author profile page is says that webmaster@bdsmlibrary.com is the right address to get changes made to the author page. But I've pinged it a couple of times (both before the recent crash and now after) I've never heard anything back. Anyone else had this happen?
Are my emails being eaten somewhere? Or is there a different email address I should be using?
I just want to add my blog/homepage:
http://www.femdom-resource.com/
As my author homepage
http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/stories/a...?authorid=3254
I'm curious/concerned if I'm simple sending emails to robot address that's simply deleting them!
I've written Torq about the problem. All my stories now have ?? instead of "" marks....Ever since the latest crash.....very distracting and disappointing...
Torq gets things done! I got a review today on a story and when I went to read the review, I also opened the story - and the problem has been corrected. Not only on this story but on all my stories. Thank you Torq! I'm going to review the thread he mentioned to make sure that any of my future submissions follow the format closely.
Thanks Torq. I appreciate you're busy and there's a lot to catch up on.
I normally wouldn't have bothered starting this thread, but I'd sent a similar email before the recent crash and received no response to that either. Hence my puzzlement.
You might want to consider updating this page: http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/contact.html
There's a line on there about the account being checked daily and responses being prompt. If that's not true then it'll just create more confusion and threads like this one.
If you're getting a lot of postings about backlog and stories then one idea might be to post a regular status update to a sticky thread in the tech corner. Spending 60 seconds every couple of days to let me people know what's going on may save you a bunch of time by avoiding creation of unnecessary emails and posts.
From an external point of view it's pretty weird when a story update gets processed but other parts of the submission don't. Did the other changes get missed? Is there a separate update path for them? Are my emails actually going anywhere useful? When should I resubmit? etc. etc.

Not a technical problem in itself, but one that can most likely solved only here:
I am active in the Writer's Block for ca. two years, but due to its current situation (for which I have full understanding) I cannot be promoted to the fourth and final level.
So I am hereby requesting access to The Writers Block -- Level Four.
Why should it be permitted? I'm definitely not asking for some kind of free ticket.
To reach a new level, assignments in the form of writing texts have to be fulfil(l)ed. Their number is varying. I wrote the two given to me, the second I have re-posted in level three. Several narrations of mine are in the free Library, all of them highly rated. My latest work, as some kind of reference, can be found here, in the Forum: Story Reviews/Story Feed back:
http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/forums/sh...s-story-please
To finally reach Level Four would mean much to me, for it represents having achieved an aim I have set to myself when I joined this site.
Thank you.
Thank you, Torq.
I'm (slowly) rewriting a story I posted, as I am not satisfied with how it came out originally. Would it be possible to take the old one down if I sent in the new one? Would I have to submit the new version all at once, or could I still do it in installments?
Thanks!
Thanks, but it's been changed such that the new chapters don't follow the old ones; it would be confusing, I think, to have both up at the same time because the plot of the new version goes in different directions.
Hi everybody
I know that this may all sound a bit much, joining a forum just to get in touch with someone, but geez. I have been trying to get a response from the webmaster (Torq?) for over four months and each time I have been brutally ignored. I even set up a new email account in the attempt but nothing has worked. I only wanted to ask a tiny favour about my page on the Library.
Does this so-called 'webmaster' actually exist?
I didn't know what else to do. If by doing this, I have caused offence - suing me is always an option!
