    Hi I tried to read some of the articles but that part of the web site doesn't appear to be working. "not available on this server" messages. ??

    Hi Jade

    There is a software glitch and has been one for several weeks, which means that you and other members cannot access the articles.

    The techy faeries have been trying to find a solution, so far without success. We are all hoping that normal service will be resumed ASAP.

    The downside is that there have been no new articles for several weeks and also no weekly updates, as most weeks we have 3 or 4 new articles and stories.

    As soon as we solve the problem you and all the other members will be informed.

    Thanks for patience

    hugs

    Hi Samantha

    Hopefully the glitch will be fixed over the Xmas vacation when the backroom girls will have time to address the article problem and some others we are having with messaging.

    Thanks for your patience and support

    Hi Samantha

    It has to be edited and activated by me or another editor and then made available for all members via weekly updates. No article that is posted ever gets to show in articles straight away - we don't censor content but we do try to make sure format and flow looks good as an article

    I am going to try and get the first version of weekly updates out after several months with nothing - either tomorrow or between Xmas and New Year. Depends on how fast the elves wrap presents....

    hugs

    Hi Samantha

    Please leave it there. I am hoping this week to be able to get some updates out, including your article. If not this week then next week.

    Hi Samantha

    Sorry but you cannot activate articles - the only people who can do that are the administration team.

    I know I promised back in February to get articles out, but for all kinds of personal reasons that has not happened.

    Hopefully I will be able to get them up and running next week

    Hi Samantha

    Its all ready to go - just one small glitch with the software which Beckie is trying to sort, then hopefully ( fingers + legs crossed) the weekly updates will be weekly again.
    Which will mean we will need articles on a regular basis.

    hugs

    Hi Everyone,

    Please note that new articles have now been added to the main feed. Beckie and I did some work this morning to get the weekly updates going again - after a late breakfast at Chez P - so from now on the articles section will go live again every week - with at least 3 new articles being added on a weekly basis.

    Please note Samantha that your article is now live and available to read.

    hugs

    Hi Andrep,

    Articles are only activated when we send out a newsletter for the site, which goes to all 10.000 plus members. This has been very intermittent this year and our goal is to send out the newsletter every two weeks. The last newsletter went out on 19th September, so the next one will be around the 3rd or 4th October.

    As we try to give all writers and potential writers a platform here on Transtastic - my editing is only ever formatting and grammar, never content ( I do not censor other people's views) - that means that in most weeks we only usually publish one story by an author.

    The plus for you of being published is that you usually get several hundred reads. If you have a series of stories - like the Barbie ones - then it helps a lot if members can look back at the history and follow the stories from the beginning.

    As you have found out posting your stories as blogs does not get many hits or reads. So if you would like to post your early blog stories as stories under articles I am prepared to post 2 for every newsletter and then after we have caught up with the backlog one per newsletter.

    Sometimes it's actually better to let things flow at a slower speed.

    Oh and please don't forget to add a photo of you or something to each article/story - so that when they are published the link will be there on the main page.

    I hope that helps

    hugs
