Can't submit my stories? · 8:45am Apr 12th, 2016
I recently wrote two new stories and I can't seem to submit them. Both are over 1,000 Words and have Descriptions, but the site won't accept them saying I can't submit them now. What am I doing wrong? I can't use auto submission as far as I know and can't do it manually. Also I hope this is publicly posted, I've still no idea how blogs work here, So i dunno if anyone will see this.
Is it just that submissions are backed up?
I got a note saying I was now eligible for auto submission when I went to submit.. but I also saw a thing saying I couldn't submit. So, if you've heard any word on it, I'd love to know what in Equestria is going on..
also, blogs are pretty unfamiliar to me, but I think there's two ways to find 'em - find them on an author's page, or to search for something under "blogs". Which is how I found yours - I was having my problem with the approving thing and was looking to see if any staff had said anything about it.
Oh. Huh. I just went to look again and it's submitted itself.

Well. I feel like a complete idiot now.
I forgot to hit publish on the chapter. Which meant it had 0 words.
I hit publish... and immediately I hit submit and was presented with the choice between auto-approval and manual.
... Yup.

Having a little "publish" box to tick next to chapters on the story main page where the submission button is would have helped SOOOOOO much in this.

You forgot, too, eh?

I completely forgot about the existence of the publish button and the notice of inability to submit doesn't mention that. And like I said being on the chapter page but not the main story page is rather annoying. Rather have one on both.

Yeah, no kidding... It's really annoying. There is a small thing on the story page, I think it's a little red circle by the chapter name, but don't quote me on that.
