i try to edit a published story and when i click republish...my changes don't seem to take...if i unpublish...i lose my number and any stat on the republish...so is there a procedure for editing a published story?

Head to the "My Creations" tab.
Head to the "My Published Creations" subtab.
Select your arc, and "Edit" it.

It's a bit confusing, but that's how to go about it.

Head to the "My Creations" tab.
Head to the "My Published Creations" subtab.
Select your arc, and "Edit" it.

Once your done, click the checkmark: Republish.
Click "Search" to refresh your arcs.

The last step is probably why you didn't see the changes. I thought It seemed like they added an auto-refresh when you republish, but it might not be working every time. Otherwise, the arcs sitting on the screen are the old ones stored on your computer from before you finished editing.

Definitely hit refresh on your list or you'll lose your changes when you subsequently edit. Very annoying bug.

What Eva mentions about waiting for the update message is just as key as refreshing the list. Because, as you know, refreshing the list and loading the old version before the new version is finished uploading and saving on the server does you no good. :3
