    In my story

    The Trials of Priscilla and Abigail Hawksby – A Gothic Adventure

    I added a chapter A Wooden Education to

    https://chyoa.com/chapter/Pain-and-Pleasure.248207

    but after saving it, it appears to have duplicated so there are now 8 copies. Like 'Highlander', there should be only one.

    I cannot delete either the links or the chapters - at least it does not seem I can - so please could you ensure that only the original link and chapter remain.

    Hi Beeble42,

    I've deleted those duplicate chapters.

    Btw: You should be able to delete chapters by clicking on "Edit Chapter", and then "Delete Chapter".

    Happy writing!

    How about moving one thread to a different place? I got caught up in posting them and I've only just now realized that one thread isn't where it was meant to go, and it has a good number of other threads attached to it now. I'd have to delete 70 threads and then re-add them in the right place. Isn't there a way to skip all that and move one thread (and all the threads attached to it) where they SHOULD be?

    I can do that manually. Let me know which chapter it is and where it belongs.

    This is the story: Sex and Sex Again
    This thread is meant to be attached to this one.
    Everything attached to it is correct though, its just that first one that's out of place.

  9. Hello ive been having a similar issue in my chapters and dont see the delete chapter option. When you click on chapter options should it appear alongside “edit chapter” or is is somwhere in the “edit page” because the first isn’t happening for me and i cant find the option anywhere else. Im not sure if it impacts this at all but i only ever use this website on mobile phone browsers. Ive been asking around but no such luck getting responses.

    Hi Devil-of-the-pen,

    If you click on "Edit chapter", you should see the "Delete chapter" link in the right sidebar. You have to click on the three red bars first on mobile devices.
