"Ask Question / Submit Article" on Requested Conte

Hullo,

This is new to me because I'm been away for a few months, but I see that the requests on the Requested Content page include a link to the questions asked of the requestor... Then, at the bottom of that page, there is a box that says "Ask Question / Submit Article".

How do you fill in that box such that your input shows up as "Article (by WritersPenName): Title Of Article" instead of "Q ## (by WritersPenName):" ?

For example, see LadyJade's article listed between Q29 and my Q30.

It doesn't appear to be a matter of where the article is categorized, because the request was in All Content yet LadyJade's article was submitted under Articles:Fashion.

LadyJade or anyone else who knows: can you tell me how is this done?

Ok, I'll try to explain this and I think I understand the question. When a requestor, requests content...they too have the option of selecting a category but "All Content" is the first choice and instead of searching for the correct category, some just choose "All Content".

My article was submitted in the "Fashion" category, I did that. You don't have to use the category chosen by the requestor as a guide to submitting your article. You know what I mean? I'm hoping your following me.

The new system, if you have an article that has been approved and it's up for sale, you want the requestor to see it. The box on the right is the one to use, click on the "Search" button and a list of your articles pops up, select the one you want to submit for that request, add notes and submit or if you just want to ask a question...use the box on the left.

Did that help...I tend to be long winded, sorry.

That much I knew--I'd submitted my article under Fashion:Lingerie. :)

That helped a lot, actually. Thank you! But would you believe that the article submission box on the right simply wasn't there when I was running around the site and scratching my head last night? Or maybe it was hiding under a right-hand scroll, I don't know. After reading your message and going back to the Requested Content Q/A page, there it was!

I've now used it successfully. Thank you for describing the process to me (and magically causing the box to appear, for all I know)!

I didn't know how long you had been away lol, I tend to be long winded. I seem to dream about the processes of this website so maybe my fairy sprinkled some magic around for ya lol. I'm glad it helped.
