Posted a series through the "Create" Dashboard, but it's not on my profile or the site to read - what gives?

So... I posted a series and the first few chapters through the 'Create' dashboard, but I can only see it through that section or direct links - it's not on the main site nor searchable.

Why would this be? Am I waiting on an unspoken moderator approval or the like? It is a fairly smut heavy/centric story, but no worse than other things I've read on here.

It doesn't say anywhere that posted stories need approval before being listed.

Any advice?

You gotta wait for a manual approval. It's just one dude sorting through it I believe, so just give it time.

That's the owner himself.

So I gathered from some other posts, but I don't envy that he has to moderate that whole section of the site himself

you need to reach out to the mod team. send them a few messages too dont stop at one. they recommend it because they get a lot of them and can miss some

You must've missed out the part where a message pops out after submitting your story. It says: "Please wait 24 to 48 hours for story approval."

In my experience, depending on the volume of submissions, it can get as long as three or more days before the work is approved. There are worse cases when new stories get buried in the flurry of new works coz again, the numbers submitted.

Nobody envies that guy. Not even that guy himself, I'd say - but I wouldn't want to make assumptions.
