Hiding a story without actually deleting it

Is it possible to hide a story without actually deleting it? I know in Lush 1.0 you could, but it doesn't seem to be possible in Lush 2.0 unless the procedure has changed.

No, that's a feature that's never been restored as far as I know. Someone once suggested pulling back into drafts but not sure that's really a viable solution, esp. if you're pulling down multiple stories. If they were taking votes on features to add, I would happily upvote this one.

And before anyone unfamiliar with 1.0 asks, the purpose is to be able to take a story "offline" without losing your likes and comments, which is what happens if you delete and then reup it later.

Possible use case: You're submitting the story to a professional market that wants exclusive rights but don't want to delete it from Lush unless it actually gets picked up.

Thanks, Seeker. I had looked everywhere and it didn't seem to an option anymore. Your input is appreciated and welcomed.

Yeah, I'd edit and Unpublish it back to Drafts. That'll pretty much accomplish what it is you want to do.

Thanks, Joe. I will probably do that soon. Perhaps after the current competition is ended.
