Hi,,,Is is possible to change the category of a story after the story is already published. How do you do that? Hope I am in the right forum for this question. Thanks for any help.
 
Where it tells you to add a notation such as *EDIT* to the title, if you have enough room, use *CATEGORY EDIT* instead. Likewise, in the "Moderator Notes" section, say that you're only changing the category, and none of the story text.

Edits to title, description, tags, and category are a lot easier for Laurel to process than anything that changes the story text, so announcing that yours is a quickly processed edit surely can't hurt.

Oops I sent the edit version in before I read your post. I didn't put CATEGORY EDIT in the title, just EDIT", but I believe I did in the Moderator Notes...Hopefully it won't cause too much hassle for Laurel!🙏

No worries. My suggestion was just something that could possibly speed up processing. It won't cause any issues with processing once she gets around to it. Be prepared for a long wait, because edits are processed in batches whenever Laurel has time. A month or more isn't uncommon.
