Four questions …

Paige Hawthorne 🚫

How do I italicize words when I post a story? I tried:

_this_

but it didn't work. (See the just-posted Description in 'The Second Sausalito'.)

How do I change the Description?

How do I add a Universe? In Create New Universe, the Universe Name section says, "(Max 64 character)" and won't let me type in a new name.

How do I change the type size when I copy and paste a chapter? (This is the step right before I click to post it. In other words, I'm the only one to see this phase, but the type is now so large that it makes proofing it a bit of a challenge.)

Thanks,

Paige

How do I italicize words when I post a story?

If your file is a docx, just make it italics in your word processor.

If your file is a text file, either put < i> and < /i> around it (without the space).

Or

{_ _} for italics like so:

{_This is the first italics paragraph.

Second italics paragraph.

Third italics paragraph._}

I never did it the last way, but I assume

{_this_}

would italicize this

{_ _} for italics like so:

S B ... Thanks. This does work for the chapter I posted. But not, for some reason, in the Description. Not a big problem.

How do I change the Description?

click on Authors/Editors
click on Manage Stories
click on the story you want to change the description
click on Edit/Title/Description/Version

@Switch Blayde

click on the story you want to change the description

Ah, that was the step I was missing -- clicking on the story.

Obliged,

Paige

No formatting allowed in the description.

How do I change the Description?


Authors/Editors -> Manage Stories -> click story title -> click 'Edit Title/Desc/Version'

How do I add a Universe? In Create New Universe, the Universe Name section says, "(Max 64 character)" and won't let me type in a new name.

The universe creation is working as far as I can tell.

You're proofing in the paste field of the wizard? OK.

Well, one thing you can do is use your browser's zoom function to zoom out of the field.
