Hi,

I just tried to post chapter 21 for my FF.net story which is the best I ever wrote. Five hours later, it's showing up on my preview as the 21st chapter but chapter 21 isn't showing up on where my story is posted on the site which still shows only 20 chapters.

I couldn't find the damn blog but I found Twitters and the latest tweet was on how well the 10 minute system upgrade went this afternoon. But guess what, comments are appearing with people reporting missing chapters and the infamous Code I error which I assume shows up when you try to click the link on the "alert" email because the chapter doesn't exist.

I don't care about bells and whistles. I just want to post my damn chapter so people can read it because as I'd said, it's the best ever.

Folks, meet my latest error message when I click the update link on the "alerts".

Chapter not found. Please check to see you are not using an outdated url.

New chapter/story can take up to 15 minutes to show up.

I haven't uploaded anything yet. But I would try deleting it and reuploading the chapter again. See if that fixes it.

I literally just uploaded a chapter about ten minutes ago and have six hits so things seem to be working on my end just fine.

I am glad the issue got cleared up for you. - I just remembered something that happened when I updated that might be worth mentioning, when I update a chapter I get a chapter notification sent to my email. And usually it take like half a second after I update for my email to ding. This time it took about two minutes.

Related? - It is probably nothing, but it was significant enough for me to raise a brow at the time.

I uploaded a new chapter last night and everything worked fine for me, the chapter shows up and I got hits/reviews for it.

This issue happened several months ago for some people, resulting in some angry authors.

This happened to me last night, too. Sometimes that does happen on FFN, but this is the first time for me.

I've had exactly the same problem - it's extremely frustrating! I think I'll delete and repost.
