Hi,
Double issue.
I uploaded a story in .doc format... It loads, and the text appears, but not the whole story. The only part that shows up is the title and brief '18+' message I keep at the top. None of the actual story loads. There's nothing wrong with the doc itself, as it works fine anywhere else, but loads wonky here. Any suggestions?
Further to that, I uploaded it twice by mistake, both have the same issue, and I go to delete them both and while I hit the 'move to trash' checkbox etc it doesn't do anything. Am I missing something with delete?
Thanks
Delete function not working for stories/story loading wrong

Some updating functions won't show in a current session. For example, if you were uploading a corrected story, you would have to log out or close the browser and log back in to see the changes.
When uploading stories, the G4 gallery software that Eka's Portal uses seems to work best with Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP formats. Do not use newer .docx formats; they give iffy results at best. Even with 97/2000/XP, not all formatting will display; embedding graphics do not work, nor do document links or hyperlinks—I've done some experimenting—but that does not affect the story itself.
If your word processor does not support Word 97/2000/XP format, OpenOffice Writer does. OpenOffice is free and it works.

I've had this issue myself before.
Sometimes, the uploader will lock up if you try to upload a file it doesn't like for any reason.
Avoid .txt files too; those are a surefire lockup.
.rtf files work okay, as do .doc/.docx files (the former has better results). Updating the page by reloading or tab closing might help with other issues, or restarting the browser may be necessary (I've only had to do that once)...
