I improved the design. I think now it looks way better. What do you think?

Hey, thanks for your feedback. This was mainly done because I had to upgrade PHP due to the security vulnerabilities, and I had to upgrade the forum software. I fully agree that this needs to be improved. :)

Thanks for the feedback! I’ve moved Favorite Stories and Bookmarks right below your profile details in the menu, so they’re easier to find without adding more icons to the mobile header. You can now jump directly to any page on mobile by tapping the current page indicator and choosing a page...

I'm currently running a full backup of CHYOA, which is causing delays in view counter updates. Views are still being recorded, but the displayed counts aren't updating as usual. They should catch up once the backup is finished. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for your patience!

Thanks for reporting this, and for the screenshot! I’ve fixed it. Let me know if you still run into any trouble!

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve reworked how the Story Map loads compared to the previous version. The biggest change is that “Go to Current” can now load the relevant section directly, without working its way through all the chapters before it. You’ll still see the surrounding chapters, so you...

Thanks for the suggestions! I’ve made a few improvements based on your feedback. :) You can now search by chapter title or number in the Move chapter dropdown to find your destination quickly. I’ve also added search to Copy chapter and a few other long dropdowns around the site. You can now...

Thanks for the suggestions! Both changes are now live. You can now choose Borda count when creating a ranked-choice poll. Options earn points based on their ranking, so support beyond first-place votes contributes to the result. I’ve also increased the limit from 10 to 25 options for all...

Thanks for bringing this up! I hadn’t included the holiday logos in the redesign, but I’ve now added them back, along with the themed searches when you click them. :)

Hey! I'm definitely open to the idea. Could you elaborate a bit on how you imagine this working, especially how authors would add and manage the information? I'd love to hear more details! :)

Thanks for reporting this again. The daily database backup has been running past 14:00 UTC, which temporarily blocks view-count updates. The earlier fix addressed a different scheduling problem, but a blocked update would still wait until the next hour to try again. Views were still being...

Thanks everyone for helping track this down, and sorry for the delay! You were right about the Markdown conversion. It was adding a backslash before *. A fix is now live, so multiplication should work with the rich text editor enabled. Please let me know if you still run into any issues!

Thanks for explaining, and for the suggestion! I’ve now added Display priority to the Story variables page. It works for variables introduced in chapters too, so you can leave their definitions where they are. For your example, set Headgear to 1, Upper Body to 2, and Lower Body to 3. Lower...

Yes, that's a new feature! :)

Hey, thanks for letting me know. I approved your chapter and added you as an author to the story so that your future chapters will be approved automatically. Happy writing! :)
