I had the same problem as @Lumi . I considered that perhaps I just hadn't understood hashtags, so maybe it's not that much of a 'problem'.

P.S. - I don't think you should be sorry for the excess info, @Lumi , I was too lazy to do all the experimenting, so I only got hashtagging after reading what you wrote.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but the feed on both the home page and on the right-hand bar of the index page appears to be frozen. Nothing has changed, no new posts are showing up, even though plenty of reviews and posts have been done since I was last on, twelve hours ago.

If it makes a difference, I checked on both my phone and Nook (e-reader). Both were the same.

Edit: appears to be fixed! Thank you!

Uh... I can't enter chat. It just starts disconnecting me right away and doesn't let me in. It started randomly around 10-ish minutes ago. I tried changing browsers, it doesn't work in neither Chrome nor Safari.

I'm on iPad. Also, apparently it does show me on the list of people chatting, but I'm not in there <.< I'll wait a bit and try it again later, but I figured to mention that it happened anyway...

@AriaAdams it seems like it's doing that to everyone chatting -- if you're on the page, or were on the page recently, it still registers you as "there" even if you're just staring at the disconnecting screen.

But yeah, this just happened. I tried Chrome and Firefox.

The chatroom issue has been fixed, and the site feed issues has also been fixed.

I think I have another problem >_<

Ads keep opening on their own whenever I'm on mobile on YWS, on my iPhone. I won't even click or touch the ad and it'll automatically redirect me to usually this (link removed) page.

I'm not sure what brought it on all of the sudden. Maybe it's just the ad?

Edit: Now it's doing it for the site on my laptop as well. This (link removed) ad, this time.

That's actually happened to me too as well, but I figured I had accidentally clicked on an ad. In any case, looks like it's happening to a lot of other sites as well:
http://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum6/HTML/110564.html
https://productforums.google.com/forum/ ... discussion

I'll go ahead and block the site you linked to, @Iggy, and hopefully that'll resolve the issue.

As an update, via my phone, it hasn't. I still keep getting redirected to the same site, just different articles.

For some reason, the novel I'm working on, 'Bling', has completely vanished from the website, except for my portfolio. And when I open them through my portfolio, the rest of the chapters aren't visible in 'Related Works' in spite of being in the same folder. Infact, I published the Prologue about ten minutes back! 250 points were taken from my total points, and then I see that they aren't anywhere!
Here's the link to the prologue, work/YastikaReads/Bling--Prologue-118225

@YastikaReads ->> Your works are set to either private or draft. You should be able to view them in the Publishing Center.

@TiggaBiscuit ->> Can you include the name of the work? Also, when a work is unpublished, you can still edit it. Just go to the Publishing Center then to Drafts.

Also, when you clicked the Edit Work button, there was a bug with it, but the bug is that it takes you to create a new work. Nothing about your old work would've been edited.
