Hiya. The data is there, but how we manage it and access it probably falls under design features rather than bugs at the moment. Great feedback though, so we will add it to the design features list.

Re the scores, this has been noted as a bug and is being looked at. Thank you 🥰

I don't see the loss of story data as a design feature. it is valuable information to a lot of authors. We had it before, and it should still be there now, not months from now as a "new feature".

First time in four years I haven't been able to log my total reads, reads/votes/comments per story, etc. My OCD is going right through the roof. 

I have to agree with Kistin, I track my comments, views, even words written in a spreadsheet and having the data in the old site and losing it now doesn't feel like a design feature. 

A couple of other things I preferred on the old site, looking at the current Competition, the story list is only a partial list.  In fact all the old Comps are that way as well, only about 15 stories are listed and I know for a fact there were many more. My own entries are missing except for the one comp I made it in at the last minute.  That tells me the story list for the comp is probably the last 15 entries.  That really needs to be fixed.

I also would prefer the old "My stories" list.  This one takes up a lot of room for each story and is multiple pages instead of a long list.  We've also lost the ability to sort or download the stories. 

Hopefully these things are on the to-do-list as opposed to the 'someday-list'.  Thanks,

I've saved a story into draft but cannot get back in to edit it - I just get the wheel of death whenever I try to access the edit page. I'd love to edit, add a note and publish if possible Also, I still have to log back in every time I change page - just to access this forum is painful!! And I got a solid block of text when I pasted into the editor - without an option to view the unpublished version, so I'm not sure what I need to edit. Grateful for help! Many thanks, Jason

Thank you for the response Jen - It won't be a move forward if we lose those features, so good if they can be added to the list for design features. Speaking of which (I'm sure others have mentioned) - this really isn't a dating site. Seriously - please get rid of all the 'match' stuff. Bad, bad move!!

Okay, the level of detail available to authors seems to be much more basic than previously. Some questions: 

Are authors going to have the same access they previously had to their stories? At the moment I can't see my word counts, or the history of story edits (either by mods or myself) - the edit history is useful so I can see what changes have been made to to the version I pasted into the Lush publisher. 

Also - I can't easily access all my stories from one page - my 60+ stories are on 7 pages which I have to navigate across one by one to reach the oldest. Those with more stories will obviously have a longer trek. I used to do this from one scrollable page. And on that same page were those word counts, scores etc. I could also change the order of my stories, promoting those I wished to my profile page. There was also a separate page that ordered my stories by category and by series. That option also seems to have gone. 

It's not easy to identify those stories with RR and EP or those with an audio unless you directly access the story (i.e. it's not visible from the list). These stood out really clearly before. Scores and number of reads are general rather than specific. For some reason one story has dropped it's score without any additional votes.

"All of this is being looked at for development as there are some good points raised here, Admin"
