Showing published but not published

[honoriousj]

Thank you for your patience with what might be a silly question but I have three stories that are tagged "published" in My Stories but are all still in the "pending" group and not available in the stories list to be read. Is this a bug or just a feature I haven't heard of?

They'll appear on the dates shown. So 15, 16 and 17 May.

Just heads up that now that I’m following several authors I’ve noticed that sometimes alerts go out for new publications before they show up on your works page. So your followers may be able to see your new stuff for a little while (minutes/hours) before everyone else can.

Typically when a new chapter is published I like to go look at the summaries for the previous entry and I catch the discrepancy.

same problem with me...showing published today but not moving out of pending tab

And the answer is still the same. A combination of PUBLISHED and NEW tags means the story will go out on the date listed. It may say "today" for you if you are in a westerly timezone; the usual publication time for new stories is 7 am UTC.
