Suggestion to other authors:

[SimonDoom]

Include a link to your story submission page in the signature section of your profile page. That way you make it easy for other authors to find your stories. Otherwise, it may be necessary for someone interested in your stories to follow a more cumbersome process like doing a Google search. That doesn't take much time, admittedly, but every little thing you do to make it quick and easy for others to find your stories will help.

You don't need to use Google search though, you can find Lit accounts by searching here:

True, but you have to go to the main literotica page, then the stories page, then the member search page. If anything it's less convenient because of the nonobvious way Lit is organized. I think a Google search actually is faster.

I just did this the other day. I’m not sure why it hadn’t occurred to me sooner.

Ah yes, you may well be right, but now this thread has a "one click link" to the Lit search form, so at least folk know the capability exists. Doing a Google search would be just as tedious, for me .

I don't see what you are referring to.

Better yet.

Obviously, I am slow tonight, because I don't understand what you are referring to either.

Oh, wait a minute. You mean including your signature with the link at the bottom of your post?

I was pointing at my signature.

I don't see it.

 

[BelleCanzuto]

lets see if i can get THIS to work

tried adding a signature with the link...

 

[ElectricBlue]

I don't see what you are referring to.

Post #2, and you have repeated the link in Post #3.

Also, like Melissa, look down to my Sig block (but you might be like me, and have all of the bright lights and pretty pictures turned off, because they clutter up the page).

I don't see any signature blocks. How do you turn them on?

[HectorBidon]

To enable seeing signatures:

Click "User CP" at the top of the Discussion Board.
Then "Edit Options"
Then go down to "Thread Display Options" and select "Show Signatures" and "Show Avatars"

Set up your signature using the "Edit Signature" option in the left-hand menu.

I didn't know this either until just now. I could always see signatures if I wasn't logged in, but not if I was.

 

[ElectricBlue]

Yes, that's me now. In my first year at Lit I got sick of all the flashing lights, book covers and bill-boards in people's signature blocks, and figured out how to turn them off. I then forgot that I did that, and could only see Las Vegas when I wasn't logged in. Having half my screen disappear in a single post merely reinforces that the "off button" was the best find ever. But I now understand Simon's confusion - he too found the off button at some stage and forgot that he did so .

Otherwise, it may be necessary for someone interested in your stories to follow a more cumbersome process like doing a G..... search.

I think a G..... search actually is faster.

Why do you keep promoting spyware? There are other search engines that don't track you.

I was pointing at my signature.

Which is only text, not a clickable link, so it won't help anyone get there, even if they wanted to.

It clicks through fine for me. Goes to the first chapters of "My Rise and Fall" & "Mary and Alvin".

I don't know what you are looking at, but this is my signature line. Each picture is a clickable link.

Maybe it doesn't work on some devices.

 

[Rustyoznail]

I wondered how to get that link...

Thanks

 

[SimonDoom]

Ok. Set it up. It's like seeing color for the first time . . .

 

[jaF0]

I have the big gaudy, repetitive images blocked. Got tired of seeing the same ones over and over and over and over .....

All I see is the text which is not clickable.

 

[ThisNameIsntTakenYet]

That's not the issue. After it was mentioned here I turned off images only and now your signature is just two links to the images themselves, not the actual stories. It seems like that's what jaF0 ran into.

 

[SolarRay]

I've always just used: www.literotica.com/u/USERNAME -- easiest shortcut ever. No searching necessary.
