I accidentally unpublished one of my works while trying to change the category it was listed under. How do I republish it without spending another 300 points?

Hi there 221B. I did a little experiment with one of my old works to see, and I don't think it should cost you points.

1) Go to the Publishing Center (top bar)
2)Open the folder where the work is and click on the "Drafts" tab.
3) The work should show up. Open it and hit Save Changes.
4)At that point you should see "Set work options". That's where you should go to change the genres, description, etc.

Hope that works! :)

That wasn't my question. ^^; I was doing that when I accidentally unpublished my work. I need to know how to republish it.

Is it in your Drafts folder, which niteowl directed you to?
you can message me with anything: questions, review requests, rants
are you a green room knight yet?
have you read this week's Squills?

Yes, but there isn't an option to republish it. Only to edit it.

Hm...I just checked again with one of my pieces. I see three buttons: Save changes, Publish it, and Preview.

If you're not seeing that, maybe take a screenshot?

That might be a bug.

I suggest you post in Report a site bug, just don't forget to include this information:

For best results
- Include your browser and version.
- Time problem occurred.
- A detailed description of what happened. What section were you on? What were you doing? What were you trying to do?
- Your operating system.

Okay, I'll do that. Thank you.
