see below re: Twitter settings, I sent that before I saw this thread.

It'd be great if we could title the items appearing in wrote. The first word is not always relevant to where I ended up - a title (or summary) field would make it easier to find things again.

Hey Sylvia,
There is a title field. If you go to Wrote -> Your Pieces you can edit each of your pieces, including giving them titles, making them public, adding commentary, and even providing an alternative final text if you have done some post 125r editing.

Oh! So there is - sorry, because I've left mine private, I never looked at the other options there. Thanks :)

Hi there -
In both pieces so far I've felt like I wanted to mark the divisions between the sections; in the first, at least, the fact that I'd been paragraphing meant that it wasn't clear, so I added tildes in the text, but that only works in the textarea ones, the text lines won't have it. Is there any chance of having a 'divider' switch in the 'edit piece' window?
It could be a tilde or a hr-tag or a CSS line or a piggy-back twin-S section marker or whatever is most easily done. Or I can carry on adding tildes myself, of course.
[I just worked out I had this in the wrong thread before - sorry]

That will be a little tricky, and will involve changing at least one table in the database.
I will look into it.

I don't want you to worry too much about this - it's the whim of one person, and the tildes work. Or can I just put an hr tag in myself?

scratch that, I found the markdown for a horizontal line:
and that makes me happy too.

Excellent. I popped back in here to suggest exactly the same thing.

I have three requests, actually, only one of which I sort of care about:
1) Is is possible to add some method of putting non-traditional characters into the text, ie, an "a" with an accent over it? I only have a laptop and can't numpad it like I normally would. If it's pain in the ass, no worries, was just curious.
2) Is it possible to increase the character limit on comments? Whenever I critiqued someone's work earlier I had to reply about 5 times to say everything I had to say. (Also not that important, just curious)
3) What I would really like, if it's possible, is if the text from our work could be auto-filled into the "Final Text" box for us, and then we could manipulate it as we see fit. As is right now I have to copy/paste six times before I can start rearranging. Kind of a pain, especially at the beginning when it's just one word, then three, then five.

I'm working on 3 at the moment and it should be in place by tomorrow.
I think 2 should not be that hard. I will look at how comments are set up in the database.
1 is tricky. Tricky as in I don't know how I would do that off the top of my head. Some research is in order...

Well definitely don't worry about 1 very much... I'm just an odd case who doesn't have a numpad - most won't have the problem I do. And I didn't notice before, but I wrote 1, 3, 5 instead of 1, 2, 5 above. doh!
-

3 - done. All new entries will automatically have all the sets copied into the "final text" field to spare us all the copying and pasting.
2 - I have increased the maximum comment length to 5000 characters - about 1000 words. If that isn't long enough, let me know.
1 - yeah. That is a bit tricky. Since it isn't that important I might just sleep on it and see if a simple solution pops up.

Hey Jimmy - Dunno if anyone else is having this problem, but my final text is still showing up in the 1,2,5-er format instead of my intended paragraph clumps recently. Look at "Ghosts" to see what I mean. Any ideas?

I might have missed a spot. I will have a look at the code and see what's happening.

You prolly really hate me and my requests by now. :) Anyways, is there any way we could stick an attachment into our comments? For instance, in the critique group you have, there's a piece I would like some feedback on, but it's about 8 pages long in MS Word, and copy/pasting that would be a b&%. Is it possible to attach the file in some way? This could also be useful for when others suggest texts to read for inspiration. If I suggest, "Hey, you should read Yellow Wallpaper by Gilman" I could just attach the file in question rather than sending someone off on a Google hunt. Anyways, just a thought.

Sorry 'bout the overuse of "Anyway." :P
