Hi!! I just saw the Post for "Other" stories is already in the second page, so I realized that when you post your recs and announcements the themes post will slowly disappear to the back of the community and will be difficult to find for new people and those who doesn't use delicious.
Maybe you it would be a good idea to put a an entry that's always at the top of the community with links to the five different themes? like an index masterpost or something.
Thanks so much for this. Unfortunately, with LJ communities, we are unable to make a sticky post. :(( We have tried to solve the problem by having each theme listed on the side panel so members can link to it easily. We are also hoping that members "track" themes that they want to follow so they are alerted to new stories coming in.
It caused us quite a problem to begin with, and it's the only way we have been able to think to solve it.
Dunno if it will be any help but I just checked a couple of author's livejournals to see how they do it and it seems they put the masterpost with a date in the future, so it's always at the top of the page:
Not sure how they do it though, or if it can be done in a community... Anyway the sidebar thing it's also great, I must admit I'm a little dumb and I hadn't even looked at it.
Thanks and sorry if I'm giving you more problems and headache, I just said it because I really love this idea and I want this community to be even more amazing!
