I've just written 2 articles in response to a public request on red wine articles, which was posted on 3 January and expires 24 January. But when I uploaded the articles and clicked on the find public request link, I couldn't see it. So I ended up listing both articles under the Recreation: Food & Dining category, as well as ticking Public Request.

Will the customer get to see my articles once they've been approved? Is there something else I should do? I've already deleted my first attempt at posting one of the articles, desperate to get the public request link (which still didn't show)

Even if a buyer sets a deadline for his public request, he can choose to end the request if/when he has enough articles (or if he decides he doesn't want to buy articles). And no, the original buyer/requester will not see your articles once they are approved -- your articles will be available to the public (other buyers) - although on second thought, the buyer *may* still see it later down the road *if* he does a search for wine articles.

Oh, well; even if the original customer doesn't want them, hopefully SOMEONE will see them & decide they're just what they want!

Thanks for the quick reply.

I thought the approved article was sent to the original requester once it was approved or the original requester was notified and they had 3 days to view it before the article could be seen by everyone else.

That's true. However, if the customer has closed the request early, other customers can see the approved article straight away.

That's only if the request is still active - when you submit the article by choosing it for that specific request, it goes to the original requester and then it goes to the public CC pool of articles after 3 days if it isn't bought. In the case above, the request is no longer up.
