It's probably going to take me a bit of time to get everything set up. I'm thinking of doing a new discussion for each chapter and adding links to a table of contents to make access easier. I'm hoping to leave the reply section open for responses to what I write and relevant discussion.

Well, it seems that the initial post isn't letting me edit it, but I can update more in replies. Gonna see if I can go in and edit the reply to expand it more.

Each lore section is kind of a different topic but related to the story. I'm gonna try to make this work.

This looks amazing! You've clearly put a ton of work into this, I can't wait to read it all through 💙
If you're still having trouble editing the main post, I had the same problem and had to get someone to edit the title for me then I could make edits but only small ones at a time. I recommend trying to edit on thing at a time i.e. a paragraph or inserting a photo then clicking publish and going back in. It's painful and irritating but it works. 

Thank you! And, thank you for the advice! Been trying to do a little bit at a time. I have a few posts that can be read on the EA Help site. Once I get things updated here, I have 2 or 3 chapters lined up.

You’re welcome! That’s good, hopefully they fix the issue soon. Ooh exciting! Can’t wait! 

I’ve started to make progress with updates, but it has been slow. Your advice definitely works.

The only thing I did differently was I “cut” out most of the post, hit publish, and then after I got the post to update, I “pasted” everything back in updated. I’m hoping that now that it’s updating the changes I can make small changes over time.

After observing the flow of threads here, I'm thinking of posting new chapters on a blog or continuing to share things on the EA Help Site. I feel like it would be easier to add links to the blog and maintain the order of the chapters. I've noticed that likes to replies effect the order of the replies in threads. I am concerned that, over time, the chapters posted as a reply will get out of order. If it was easier to update the main thread post, I would consider adding the chapters there and using spoilers. I'm not convinced that is best either.

Updating the main post is also still giving me trouble, but I was at least able to get group pictures added. I want to do more, but for now, the Meet the MerSims section will be complete on the EA Help Site. I may remove the lore bit in the replies to free up space for other replies. These forums are new so a bit of trouble is to be expected.

It has been a bit of trial and error, and I'm hoping to get a system going.

For now, I will keep trying to very slowly update the section on here, Maybe, one image or paragraph a day.

I am leaning towards keeping chapters on the EA Help Site because it is easier to maintain a chapter order and uses the same upload system for images. However, I would love to have some of the format from this forum for replies to a chapter. I like how the responses to things are better organized.

If it does get easier to update things here and I know that chapter order can be maintained, I will definitely make a full transfer to this forum for my story.

Discovery just now, it is possible to order the replies based on likes, newest, and oldest. I may consider a disclaimer for ordering the replies based on the oldest first. That would resolve the issue with chapter order.

Thought I would reply and let you know something I learned. I was copying and pasting content from the EA Help site to this forum. I was accidentally transferring the EA Help Formatting to this site. The posts weren't updating because the text had incompatible formatting that carried over with the copy/paste. Once I started clearing the formatting and copying/pasting within this forum. The posts started updating much faster.
