Fic Archiving and Journal Posting

[kerravonsen]

I have an AO3 (Archive of Our Own) invite! Anybody want it?

Also, can I request that folks who cross-post between DW and LJ add a footer which indicates the LJ post? The reason I would like this is that, if crossposting is enabled, and comments are enabled in both places, I'd like to be able to follow both sets of comments. At the moment, I can only do this by following people on LJ (because the LJ post links back to the DW post) but I would prefer doing it the other way around.

The way you enable this feature is this: go to "Crosspost Settings", go to where your LJ account is listed, click on "Change" and you will then be transported to the "Edit External Account" page. Click on "Display Cross Post Links" to enable the display of a link to your LJ post. Thank you.

I haven't done that yet, but thanks for the hint.

Done. Thanks for the instructions.

Done! I didn't know you could do that. I also finally set up a very brief and simple DW footer on LJ posts.

BTW you don't see my DW posts as you don't subscribe, so I'm not sure how useful that was. Oh well.

[kerravonsen]

It's useful because now I will subscribe to you here, and put you in my "I'm looking at this person on DW" filter on LJ.

[vilakins]

I did the same. Not that I get many comments here, but I do check in at least once a day.

Wait a minute? You mean I can get my LJ posts to cross-post automatically at DW? I know my DW posts crosspost to LJ, but the only way I get my LJ posts on DW is to import my posts every few days.

[kerravonsen]

Er, no. What I mean is that when you have your DW posts cross-posting to LJ, you can set up DW so that the DW post contains a link to the LJ post that was crossposted.

LJ can't automatically crosspost to DW.

I didn't know you could do that. Thanks for the instructions.

Dreamwidth keeps on adding new, useful features.

[capri0mni]

...That are simple, clean, and make good sense.

[lizbee]

Done! Thanks for the instructions; no one else had explained it clearly.

Thank you! I didn't realise that was an option.
