I have a series that has a lot of characters in it (Stop Enslaving My Friends! in the Mind Control section), and I have a list of the cast of characters in the series info. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to update. Like, ever. I've submitted updates to the "Series Introduction" text to include new characters and character information several times and... nothing happens. And I don't mean that it takes a few extra hours or has to wait for a moderator to get around to it.

It was listed as "pending moderation" for three and a half weeks, and now claims that it has been updated. On the "My Series" page of my Control Panel it claims that it was updated on the 1st of August. When I look at the actual series info that links from one of the chapters, that claims that it updated on the 20th of July. Either way, the actual text that people see in the Series Info page is from two edits ago in May.

I'm kind of at my wits' end here. If it helps any, the Series Info page also lists my follower count from like 2 weeks ago and has my story count from 2 days ago.
 
Is the Series Introduction a story?

It's normal for edits to a story to take over a month. Laurel just posted here on the forums that edits are her last priority, done only when there are no new stories to process. That's just how it is. And every time you add a new update, you're moving your edit to the back of the queue.

If you want a current list of characters, you could put a link (or just reference) in each story to a forum topic. Forum updates are instantaneous.

The thing is that the series info says that it has already updated. Both on my control panel and inside the series info page itself. The dates are not the same, but both of them are within the last month. However factually when I look at the series information the actual text has not changed to reflect the Chapter 3 updates, let alone the Chapter 5 updates.
 
It finally updated. I don't know how, I don't know why. But I'm pretty sure it finally updated because of this thread. So, thanks everyone.
