You can leave a private message for those able to edit your piece (author and editors for the publication) by selecting text and hovering your cursor over it — at the far right of the pop up menu, you will see a lock box icon — clicking that lets you leave private messages.

As for the tags… that will take a bit of digging. Where do you write your stories? On the app or via a browser window? On an iPhone/iPad, Android phone/tablet, Windows desktop/laptop, or a Mac desktop/laptop? (I am guessing you are using one of the versions of the app. Some of them won’t allow you to change tags on replies.

If you are having the tag problem on a reply, then try creating the piece as a new standalone piece instead of as a reply. You should be able to create new tags under that situation. If you can’t — leave a private message for we editors and we will fix the problem. Just make sure that you only use FOUR tags so we can add the required tag as the fifth one.

Hope this helps. Let us know if you need screenshots or further help!
