New glitch?

[lovecraft68]

There was a thread maybe a week or so ago about a story not showing up on the author's page, but live on the site in new story list and category hub.

My contest entry went live a few hours ago, but is still not on my page.

has this been happening to anyone else?

That happens to me every time.

I've been releasing chapters every 2-3 days. The night before they appear, my submission pages shows the story given the next day's date and the 'Pending' is not a link. The next morning (noticed as early as 4am), views and maybe votes are being tallied on my submission page.

Like yours, there is no link on my story page until the afternoon unless it gets a lot of votes and appears earlier. The new chapter is not linked to the other chapters on the read page either. New Stories and Category lists are the first place they appear.

ETA: Today's new story is not on my story page yet.

My last entry, it was a while ago, for the Halloween contest, was live in the new story list for several hours at least before it showed up on my author page. I can't say how long it was like that, since I checked it twice a few hours apart, and both times didn't show on my author page. Then not again until the next day when it was. I didn't check my public story list page until after it showed on my author page.

It's everywhere else, new story list, category hub, contest page so its 'out there' just not showing up on the personal page as of yet.

Not a huge deal, just curious if its been going on awhile.

I've always, up until then, assumed that the info on the Author's page was more up to date than anywhere else. Mostly I check for votes and comments there. Often scores on a new story are different on the Author's page and the public listing of stories. Now I wonder if the Author's page is really the most up to date.

Our personal member's page is the most accurate and won't match the 'public page' you see if you just find your story and click on your author page that way.

Hasn't happened to me, but it's an interesting way to promote your story.

Says the guy with the book covers in his sig

But on that topic....who am I promoting to? The couple of people here who actually read other author's stuff?

Not many here do that, you posted you rarely do and I doubt I read a lot more here than you do.
