    Any idea why the first chapters of some stories have ? in place of special characters?

    I am still subject to the censor despite having an account with a verified email. For stories you must be logged into you read, I have an "internal error" when opening them.

    Thanks for letting me know about the issue! I’ve fixed it for you, so you should be able to access the stories now. Just log in and give it another shot. If you run into any more problems, just let me know!

    Minor editing bug: If you create a chapter and italicize a word in it, then choose "save as draft" and come back to it later, sometimes the italicization will be replaced by markup (that is, rather than being italicized, the word will be between underscores). If you don't catch this, then when you publish the chapter it will be mis-formatted. This bug doesn't happen every time; I'm not sure what determines whether it happens or not.

    I think it happens when you highlight an additional space like in "word " instead of "word". When the editor converts it to Markdown, it escapes the characters.
    Or it might be caused by an overlap of formattings.

    (When the RTE is turned off and the chapter is edited in plain Markdown, that doesn't happen.)

    The introduction has 71 (visible) child chapters.

    Due to technical reasons, the story map is loaded in chunks of 1000 chapters.
    To load additional chunks, you need to scroll down to the end of the page.
    If you collapse all, the scroll bar disappears, and as you can't scroll down, it doesn't load the next chunk. (There might be other situations that might prevent loading additional chunks.)

    With each chunk, the numbering starts from 1, so you might have more than one 2.5 chapter.

    In my notifications, I was just notified that someone else made a contribution to someone else's story. That story is one I have never seen before, let alone contributed to. Why did it show up in my notifications?

    Does it help that "Sarah, biology class" is the second chapter of the end of patriarchy? That one might be in your favorites.

    No, I mean I never heard of that chapter, the chapter before it, or any other chapter in that story. The entire thing is not in my favorites because not one iota of it is anything I ever heard about until it popped up in my notifications. I only have five stories in my favorites and that one isn't one of them.

    Now I did do a little searching and did find it in my bookmarks but I still have no idea how that happened. That is not something I would ever bookmark even if I had seen it before which I hadn't. The only thing I can think of is that maybe I was trying to bookmark some other chapter and somehow, the computer glitched and put the bookmark there. I remember about that time bookmarking a cfnm chapter but it would have had to have more focus on the male POV for me to bookmark it. Anyway, it's no longer bookmarked.

    Thank you I feel very stupid for having done it.
