AO3 - help?

[janne_d]

Got myself an AO3 account and I was having a play with loading something - does anyone know how to get it to say Chapter 1/1 instead of 0/1? I can't seem to work it out at all.

Have you actually uploaded something, or is it still a draft? I'm not seeing anything on your account, and I think the 1/1 may be set only when you actually upload the story. I'm not sure, though - wish I could help more!

Ah. That may be it - I was just previewing it and going 'wait, why does that say 0/1?' I don't like things that don't show you what they actually look like!

Oh, Happy New Year btw.

I noticed after editing my fic a couple times that it didn't update the word count on the preview page, so it seemed reasonable to assume that. I hope that does solve the problem. :)

And a very Happy New Year to you, as well! :)

Looks like you were right - now that it is posted it says 1/1. Can you guess which fandom I started with? *g*

As long as the 'this work has multiple chapters' box isn't ticked, then it should look fine when it's posted. :)

Hm. Is your icon a clue? *g*

*goes to check* Oh, indeed it was! Not a fandom I've ever been in, alas.

Heh, I think because dS was the first thing I was on LJ for (and some of the first slash I ever read) I tend to assume everyone must have been in it! Such a good show - I wish they would repeat it.
