I started a new story called Love Me, But Let My Heart Be. All I uploaded was the prologue, but it wont show up in My Works, so I can't add anymore. Oh and the cover disappeared so I keep re-adding it, but it keeps going away. I can do without the cover, but I just want it to show up in My Works to I can add more. What's wrong with it?

i uploaded a poem and fixed the story book it was in but when i logged back in later it had reverted back to how it was before. it only shows up on my profile page so i cant delete it from my works. the name of the story book is Revolution and that is also the name of the poem in the story book if it is posible for some one in charge to delete it for me that would be really great if not can some one tell me how to fix the problem my self.

I recently changed my Wattpad name and since then when I look for my works on my About Me, my works don't appear. Is there anyway to make them appear or will they appear themselves after a while or are they not going to show up again?

For people who can't search stories, are they R rated? Do they have tags?

I'm in the process of moving several stories from different websites, stories that I've spent MONTHS working on, and I can provide several links to each of them, those are fine.
My two newest works in progress, "Unchained" and "The dangers of Myspace blogs and Facebook notes" got the boot, "Dangers" is no longer there, and "Unchained" got pretty much gutted, with one entry left.
As far as I know, I'm the original author of both "Unchained", and the modified posts in "Dangers". "Dangers" is rated r because is has swearing in it, so does "unchained", but neither of them have uber descriptive violence in them.
Is there anyway I can get these back to their former glory? If not, I'll just redo everything.

I uploaded a new chapter yesterday for Resting In Secret and it was there. And now it's not. On my profile it says there are four parts, and 18 pages or however many pages it is on this website, but when I tried to read it to see where I'd stopped so I didn't get confused as what to copy and paste for my next chapter it was gone. I can't go to the file on my desktop and look it up because all my chapters are on one file (which will now be set into individual files) and it's confusing me. When the bug is fixed will my chapter be back up or will I have to upload it again?

OK so this is what happen to me yesterday I uploaded a chapter and then it said it was unavailable so restarted my browser to try it again. Then it worked but this time it changed the name I had back to the one I used as a draft. Then I tried logging out then back in and it came with the right name. Then since I already had another chapter written I uploaded it and It came up right when I checked but the chapter before it disappeared. So I got annoyed and turned my computer off and went to sleep. I woke up this morning to see if it was any different. Both chapters were there and had the right names, but then I tried making a new story and I got two chapters in. I came back a little later after I finished reading another story and found that the new story I made completely gone, and not unavailable this time but not even there and I am pretty sure I published it. So pretty much my stories are messed up and I'm not even sure if I should keep updating... ( -.- ) GAHH SAD FACE!!! MY HEAD IS CONFUSED NOW! o.o <<< Sorry had a moment >.<

Posted two chapters for a new story today called Protostigma. Everything was fine for a few hours, but now it's gone. It was even removed from a friend's library. Also, while on my profile page I cant use the dropdown menu leading to my news, library, PM's and so on. I can only use it if I'm on another page besides my profile.
I know those of you at WattPad are working very hard to fix this, and the problem is probably due to no fault of your own. I just wanted to let you know what was happening on my end, mainly with the dropdown menu not working, because I haven't seen anyone mention that yet. Anyways, thanks for all your hard work. I'm excited for this to be fixed, but I understand it will take some time. : )
Thanks,

I had Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of my story uploaded, and I was working on Chapter 3 but then I forgot a detail so I went back to look for it in Chapter 1 but it's gone!! The Chapter I mean. It shows two parts but all I can see is Chapter 2. I don't have it saved any where on my computer so I can't load it up again. I'm not sure if it's just a fault or I've accidentally clicked something that's done it. I think it's NOT the latter.
Also (on the same story) I had written some more onto a chapter (I hadn't uploaded it then) and I had to go so I saved and exited, but when I came back the bit I had written up had gone!
What has happened and will Chapter 1 come back?????!!

I added a story to my account two days ago and the summary and cover still haven't shown up for other people to see. Today I've decided to try different formats for the cover to see if that worked better, so I might have to wait a little while more for that since I changed it, but is it normal for it to take this long for the summary to show up?

I started a new story called Love Me, But Let My Heart Be. All I uploaded was the prologue, but it wont show up in My Works, so I can't add anymore. Oh and the cover disappeared so I keep re-adding it, but it keeps going away. I can do without the cover, but I just want it to show up in My Works to I can add more.
What's wrong with it?
i uploaded a poem and fixed the story book it was in but when i logged back in later it had reverted back to how it was before. it only shows up on my profile page so i cant delete it from my works. the name of the story book is Revolution and that is also the name of the poem in the story book if it is posible for some one in charge to delete it for me that would be really great if not can some one tell me how to fix the problem my self.

As far as I know, I'm the original author of both "Unchained", and the modified posts in "Dangers". "Dangers" is rated r because is has swearing in it, so does "unchained", but neither of them have uber descriptive violence in them.
Is there anyway I can get these back to their former glory? If not, I'll just redo everything.
NOW MY WHOLE ENTIRE BODY OF WORK IS GONE!?
Mine's back to normal
I had 2 or 3 of my most favorite poems deleted, i had them there a while ago but then they disappeared I've searched and searched for hours trying to find it but it won't show up. I don't know how to get it back and i don't know why it is gone

Updated Sept 18 2:17pm EST - We are experiencing delays for new stories and comments. We are working to restore full service and all stories and comments will be available once it resumes. Thank you for your patience.
That's on the Help section front page and should answer most of your questions.
I just joined yesterday and it says that my username and password are wrong so I have to keep redoing my password and it won't show me my profile and it says I can't be found when I click on my profile.
i added a Chapter To My story The F.A.M.E. and it's not showing up! i don't really remember what I posted and It's not on my computer!
When I changed my name, it made all my stories disappear, but when I came back a few days later, they showed on my works but not on my profile, Then, when I posted a new chapter of one of my stories, they came back! I was so happy!
my story doesn't even come up in my draft but if i go on another divice it shows up
I changed my username for some reasons than i went to update my story but it wasn't there!!!!!!!
hey i got my book cover back but when i try to add a new chapter i cant find it my works
I posted a new chapter on my new story today and it was there at first, but now it's not. What can I do to fix it?
I posted a chapter and it showed up, disappeared, showed up again, and now its gone again. I don't want to post it again in case this keeps happening.
Thank you CjayS42
I saved my story but when i went to check up on it, it wasn't there anymore. I just lost about 2 pages worth! It was called The Changing of the Wizarding World.
I uploaded a new chapter yesterday for Resting In Secret and it was there. And now it's not. On my profile it says there are four parts, and 18 pages or however many pages it is on this website, but when I tried to read it to see where I'd stopped so I didn't get confused as what to copy and paste for my next chapter it was gone. I can't go to the file on my desktop and look it up because all my chapters are on one file (which will now be set into individual files) and it's confusing me. When the bug is fixed will my chapter be back up or will I have to upload it again?
I upload a new story a few hours ago and now i can't fine it so does this mean i have to start over?
OK so this is what happen to me yesterday I uploaded a chapter and then it said it was unavailable so restarted my browser to try it again. Then it worked but this time it changed the name I had back to the one I used as a draft. Then I tried logging out then back in and it came with the right name. Then since I already had another chapter written I uploaded it and It came up right when I checked but the chapter before it disappeared. So I got annoyed and turned my computer off and went to sleep. I woke up this morning to see if it was any different. Both chapters were there and had the right names, but then I tried making a new story and I got two chapters in. I came back a little later after I finished reading another story and found that the new story I made completely gone, and not unavailable this time but not even there and I am pretty sure I published it. So pretty much my stories are messed up and I'm not even sure if I should keep updating... ( -.- ) GAHH SAD FACE!!! MY HEAD IS CONFUSED NOW! o.o <<< Sorry had a moment >.<
okay so i started working on a new story and i saved it a couple of times but didnt publish it or anything . then i went back on wattpad a few hours later and my story was completely gone. i havent saved it on anything but wattpad and now im really sad! please do something wattpad! i would really like my story back! :(
on my page i had 3 new fans yesterday, and ever since the technical difficulties they all disappeared! will they return when the problem is fixed????
Posted two chapters for a new story today called Protostigma. Everything was fine for a few hours, but now it's gone. It was even removed from a friend's library. Also, while on my profile page I cant use the dropdown menu leading to my news, library, PM's and so on. I can only use it if I'm on another page besides my profile.
I know those of you at WattPad are working very hard to fix this, and the problem is probably due to no fault of your own. I just wanted to let you know what was happening on my end, mainly with the dropdown menu not working, because I haven't seen anyone mention that yet. Anyways, thanks for all your hard work. I'm excited for this to be fixed, but I understand it will take some time. : )
Thanks,
D.K. Jones
i am having a problem, i have added a new chapter to my story twice now and it showed up for like 3 hours and now it's gone!

Hello everyone,
We were experiencing some issues over the weekend with regards to story and comment postings. We have recovered some of the stories and will be looking to recover the rest, including comments and everything else soon.
We apologize and thank you for your patience

For any other issues such as forgotten username/password, etc. please submit a request to support.wattpad.com
Thank you
I posted two chapters last night... and when I got on this morning they were gone!
TO EVERYONE STILL LOOKING FOR AN ANSWER.
Be honest. How many of you have actually read this whole discussion? Becuase almost all of the answers are there.
Look before you leap.
Krys, go to the "submit a request" button at the top of the page. Only Wattpad can lower an age rating, so please ask them.
beside the title, there shows 'no longer available' what the f*** man?!
Starjewel, have you changed your username recently? Was the content of the story against Wattpad rules?
My story is rated R. So why isnt it showing?
I Changed My Name Because I Had Some Trouble Over It Went Back Onto My Profile And ALL MY STORIES Say "No Longer Available" D: !!!!! HELP!♥
Igotswagg is it not showing on your profile? Or in searches?
Rebeckahh You haven;t read this thread have you? Just wait. Username changes always make stories temporarily unavailable.
So I get what is happening, but I don't uderstand what to do...? I posted a story and it isn't available anymore for some reason... Do I have to recover it?
Wait, nevermind, I got it back now.
my new story wont show up! ive tried to put it up several times and no matter how i search it i cant find it!!
leeanne, please try to explain that again, that was difficult to understand.
I had Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of my story uploaded, and I was working on Chapter 3 but then I forgot a detail so I went back to look for it in Chapter 1 but it's gone!! The Chapter I mean. It shows two parts but all I can see is Chapter 2. I don't have it saved any where on my computer so I can't load it up again. I'm not sure if it's just a fault or I've accidentally clicked something that's done it. I think it's NOT the latter.
Also (on the same story) I had written some more onto a chapter (I hadn't uploaded it then) and I had to go so I saved and exited, but when I came back the bit I had written up had gone!
What has happened and will Chapter 1 come back?????!!
it's come back now and I have saved it. thank you.
Leeane, have you checked the drop down menu at the very top of the page? This is where my works has always been.
My new reads arent getting added to my overall reads
when i make a change to a chapter and hit save...there is no save and publish button....and its not changing in the book...it is saved the right way in my account but not the book..what do i do?
Dabomb, a few servers which have to hold millions of stories worldwide can't update the read counts immediately.
Just wait. Be patient.
For some reason one of my stories disappeared in the 'My Works' section on my profile, though I click the 'Upload' tab it's still seen as one of my stories. Is this a glitch, or is my story gone? :s
I added a story to my account two days ago and the summary and cover still haven't shown up for other people to see. Today I've decided to try different formats for the cover to see if that worked better, so I might have to wait a little while more for that since I changed it, but is it normal for it to take this long for the summary to show up?
I saved three chapters of a story as "Draft". Now that I open them again, they are empty! Is it still saved somewhere? I didn't delete them, they just returned blank.
I just uploaded Chapter 4 of my story then when I published it, it was gone then chapter 3 was also gone the story of my book is ME and YOU fighting this destiny. How do I get it back?
