Re: Does "advanced search" actually work?

Thanks for your message. Apologies that this function does not work properly. We will submit a ticket to our developer to get this fixed. In the meantime, give the workaround suggested by HiredGun a try. Thanks for getting this fixed in due course. I don't believe HiredGun's workaround is really ap...

Does "advanced search" actually work?

I have tried using the Advanced Search function to find articles within a specific price range and/or word count, but using the Advanced Search option doesn't seem to have any effect on the results I'm shown - I see the same articles as I do on a regular search, and they don't match with the setting...

Sure, but that doesn't solve the problem of malware in attachments. There is a major problem here and CC needs to do something to reduce the risk for its writers.

Re: Potential Malware Attempt

I've had three of these come through my mailbox in the past month - CC needs to step up and do something about this. For example, they could limit the sending of links and attachments to customers with accounts that are 30+ days old and have made a purchase before.

Re: Aimed vs Random Content

For me, all of my writing is "random" in that it starts from a random idea I get in my head. However, as I'm writing I try to think about what kind of customer and reader would find value in the piece, and tailor my writing to them. For example, for a travel piece I imagine that my CC cust...

Re: Are Cheap Rates Killing CC?

I've had pretty good luck since I joined CC around this time last year, but I do have some "old stock" that has been sitting in my catalogue for almost a year now. I actually wondered if, as a new writer, I might have priced some content at such a low price that buyers wouldn't think it wa...

Is the referral system still active?

I found my referral link BUT I don't want to refer a bunch of people if I won't get the commission and they'll just be competing with me for sales. Can CC (or anyone who has used the referral link recently) confirm that it is still active?

Thanks!

Re: How did I miss 90 new articles in one hour?

I'm currently at an Access Level 1, but last month I was dropped back to a 2 because I ran over a deadline on something I picked up an hour before deadline was due after someone else dumped it at the last minute. Is it true that picking up jobs that other writers failed to complete by the deadline ...

I Wish I'd Discovered CC Earlier!

I just wanted to share my little CC victory! I learned about Constant Content last fall, and joined on November 23rd. My first article sold on December 8th. I've been writing casually in the evening and on the weekend, outside of my day job. I've focused almost entirely on topics that I'm actually i...

I emailed Support but didn't hear back. Could someone from C-C confirm that there are no protections in place to make sure I get paid for this writing job? Because if there aren't, I will definitely cancel.

How do private requests work?

I've sold a few articles and was recently contacted by a client requesting a specific piece of writing. If we agree on the content, length, price and deadline via message, what happens from there? Will they put the money into escrow through CC? What protection do I have to ensure I get paid for the ...
