I've had some trouble adding an existing story. The series has some entries now, but that story won't show the series name in the box for that. StarBelliedBoy has been looking into the issue. (Thank you for your help!) We think it might be because the story was once a competition entry, but that is just a guess. He thinks the developers may have broken some code that had been fixed earlier.

I think that's right - If the first one is a competition entry, then the system won't let you make it into a series. I discovered that when trying to make some of my related stories into a series. It's because comp entries are supposed to be stand-alone stories. But you should be allowed to add a follow-on afterwards.

Oddly enough, I finally got it to work. I have no idea if they changed the coding for competition stories, although I heard they were going to do that.

Go to Stories in your profile and click Unpublished. Drafts should appear there.

Sorry, I've been having a bit of a break from here this past week. That's good to hear it worked. I know it didn't immediately after the move, then it did for a while because some were able to add ex-comp stories to series (such as to series named "Comp Stories"). Someone obviously ticked the wrong box or something during in update that unfixed it, and now remembered. Or maybe it can only be done after results of the last comp have been announced and a new one has yet to open, that's certainly a possibility as we were trying before the results of the last were out.

Well, I thank you for looking into it. It's not an issue that comes up that often (I wasn't even in the holiday comp). The comp my story was in announced the results in October or November, I believe, so quite a lot of time had passed - a couple of months? - before I tried to put it into a series. The site is in better shape than it was in September, and I assume there is a continuing effort to fix these smaller problems that keep popping up. I know it's a big job.
