I finished several of the short stories, it shows them as read, but won’t let me rate them; when I try it says I have to read it first. So, I try to read again, whereby it says I already read the item. Again, I try to rate a book I read, and again it says I can’t rate until I read it… and so the cycle goes. Round and round telling me to read the the story in order to rate, but then telling me I already read the story. Also, when I comment they disappear.
It seems you didn’t log the reading progress. Check that the progress is showing 100%. If not, just go back and follow the instruction on the bottom bar to log the progress. Sometimes you may need to click to the next unit and back to the previous unit before you are able to click it. You are absolutely correct, but trust us and stand by us like everyone else did since we started this platform. We are working to simplify that process.
