I'm new here in Scribble Hub and I just noticed something. I write my chapters on Word and then copy pasted them on the site. But then, I noticed some words or even phrases missing from what I copied. It's not even phrases from the start or the bottom of the chapter, but it's from the middle. So, there's no way I just forgot to copy them.

I started posting chapters last week and I just noticed it now. It's very stressful checking everything. ?

Is there something wrong with the site? Or do I have to write directly on the site to avoid something like this? ?

Ive never had this issue. Though i have heard it happen to other people. Do you write in word online or is it the word app

I write on the app. ?
It's not just you, it's happened to me before but I've started using Google Docs and no longer have that issue.

I recommend saving on G.Docs or making backups anyways, if you can. Saves you from the pain of losing everything should a drive crash/fail.
Okay. I'll try writing on google docs. Thanks for the suggestion! ?

Is it a formatting issue? Maybe a font or symbol that SH can't read? If you paste as plain text, that might fix it... But you'll lose any coloring or fonts you used.

After the first few incidents with copy pasting, I just wrote in the site's editor. :blob_sweat:
