Start a series, add issues and pages

A series holds issues; an issue holds pages. Some choices here are for good, so make them with care.

Before you start

Create a series

1. Name it

   Under New series, a Title and a URL; a Synopsis and up to 8 comma-separated Genres help readers find it.

2. Set its shape

   Unit (Issues, Chapters, Episodes or Volumes), Layout (Paged or Vertical scroll) and Reading direction. These three can't be changed later.

3. Rate it honestly

   Content rating: All ages, Teen (13+), Teen+ (16+) or Mature (18+) — readers' age settings depend on it. Tick any Content warnings that apply.

4. Disclose AI

   Tick This work was made substantially with generative AI if it was — a label shown to readers, not a restriction.

5. Create it

   Press Create series.

Add an issue

1. Open the series

   Press it on your shelf.

2. Number it

   Under Add an issue (or a chapter, an episode…), give it a number — text, so “1”, “1.5” and “Annual” all work — and an optional Name. Press Add ….

3. Open it

   Press the new issue to open its page wall.

Build the page wall

1. Add pages

   Pick a New page layout — Blank, or one of the eight layouts — and press Add page.

2. Arrange them

   On each page: ← / → move it, ⧉ duplicates it (to the end), ✕ deletes it.

3. Draw a cover

   Press Draw a cover. It's published as the first page and shown as the issue's cover; without one, the first page stands in.

4. Open the editor

   Press Open the editor (or Open the issue editor ↗ for full screen).

If something's off

“You already have a title with that URL.”

Choose a different URL.

“Delete page … of this issue? This can't be undone.”

Deleting a page is for good. Press Cancel if you didn't mean it.

“… has reached the …-page limit…”

Start a new issue for the rest.
