Hi all,
I've reached out to Ao3 about the invisibility of the challenge in the drop down field when you're posting new works, but expect (hope!) their volunteers may be slower to respond because of the holidays. In the meantime, you can still post to the challenge (instructions below)
and I also want to reassure writers and artists that al works will be accepted into the challenge even if they are not posted on their prompt day (as long as they are posted at some point within the two week window of the challenge).
Posting to the Collection - Workarounds
1) "Post to Collection" Option. From the Collection page click on
Post to Collection and add your work from there, entering the metadata and coding the text as you normally would. This pathway automatically adds the work to the collection with the appropriate collection tag.
2) Direct Add "TwelvetideDrabbles2019". Although it does not show up as a dropdown option, you
can still add the collection tag when creating a new work. In the "Post to Collections / Challenges" field simply type "TwelvetideDrabbles2019" and hit "enter". The field will be added even though the collection does not show up in the dropdown menu and the work will be added to the appropriate collection.
Sorry for the glitch folks! And thank you for your patience. Don't hesitate to catch me on Twitter (@feministlib) or via email (feministlibrarian@gmail.com) if you are encountering problems with adding your work or have any other questions.
Happy creating!
