Stories appearing twice

[RelentlessOnanism]

I've noticed this in the past with other authors' work, but now it's happened to me. A two part story of mine now appears twice in my submissions page. They link to the same story, but just replicate each other. Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes. With mine they were chaptered stories where the story sequencing software lost the plot. Happened a couple of years ago - I tried unsuccessfully to get it corrected, without success.

EDIT: Whoa! Just checked my list. Nearly every chaptered story is duplicated. Previously, it was down to a glitch that I could figure out, now it's plain double entries. Bit confusing for readers, but twice as many landing places, I guess.

Yes, it's happening to a lot of us.

Yep. Has happened to a couple of mine.

Oops! Just checked. Everyone of my series are duplicated. WTF?

It has been a bug on Lit for series for years...I can't be the only one who has noticed, can I?

True, but it seems a lot more widespread now. It didn't happen to my series until late last week. And I'm now noticing it with the series of other Lit authors I follow, who previously hadn't experienced this issue.

Yes, it's gone nuts in the last week or so. I've had two listings duplicated for a couple of years, both with sequencing errors, but now nearly everything with chapters is shown twice.

It just went nuts on me yesterday. All my series over three stories are now duplicated.

It happened to all of my titles which ended by Ch. XX. My first series started as a stand-alone story, the title of the first chapter doesn't say XXX Ch. 01, that first chapter only appears once in the list, and now it is no longer considered as part of the series (in this list. At the end of the stories themselves, this chapter does show up as being part of the series.)

Curious. All my stories have been duplicated now (I have no stand-alone ones), also those ending with "Pt." (but perhaps it's somehow equivalent to "Ch.")

 

[Zeb_Carter]

Hmmm... I looked more carefully and it only duplicated my series that have Ch. xx or Pt. xx and only those where the Ch. and Pt. are at the end of the title and have a Ch. 01 or Pt. 01. If the first chapter or part doesn't exist or the the title doesn't end with the number, it didn't duplicate them.

Heheh. I look so much more prolific now! All my series and linked sequel stories are appearing twice -- but it makes it look like I published 50+ entries in 2018.
