Hi Slickmods, I’ve run into a problem!
(Sorry if there are any incoherences, English isn’t my first language.)

Basically, when I search for a specific prompt code in Notion, the results don’t match what they’re supposed to correspond to.
Let’s say the author writes a slice-of-life based on their claimed prompt, they give the code in their notes, but when you search the code in Notion, something totally different shows up instead, like a Royal AU or something. A whole other plot basically.

That if it shows up at all! Most times they don’t even appear in the search results even though I know the prompt exists, since the authors always include the prompt code in their notes.

Also another issue, when I open a claimed prompt in Notion, one that has an already published fic, the fanfic isn’t linked in the work section like it should be.
Please help! Thank you! 😞🫶

hi! first, about the prompt codes, unfortunately the mods weren’t able to figure out what the problem is because none of us were having the same issue from our end when viewing the masterlist logged out. please make sure you are viewing the right database (there is an “unclaimed” and “claimed” version), and also we’d recommend trying to search by just the number (e.g “000” instead of “A000”) instead of the full prompt code. if the search function is giving you trouble you can also use the filter option, so filter for prompt code, change it to “prompt code is” and type the prompt code in there. it should work! if you (or anyone else) are still running into issues with the ML please let us know!

second, fics are not linked in the prompt masterlists! if you want to find written prompts + the link to their corresponding fic, it’s formatted that way on our weekly reading lists. you might also have better luck searching the prompts there but we don’t post them until the end of the week.

i hope this helped a bit!! since we didn’t have the same problem i’m assuming it might just be notion acting a bit buggy unfortunately :c but please try again and let me know if the problem persists! thank you for your question!!
