help needed with publishing my project on the scratch site

hi,

i uploaded my first project and i expected to be able to see it on the scratch site. However i am only able to see it from "my stuff" area under my own acount while my friends cannot find it on the site (either exploring projects or using the search engine).

Thanks for your kind help

Re: help needed with publishing my project on the scratch site

First of all, this is the wrong forum.

How long ago did you post it?

Is this it? http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/avataro/2409227

It takes a little while for the search engine to update; a couple days usually.
You can just send your friends the link.  smile

Make sure you add tags to your games o make them be noticed, and you can advertise and be active on the site. Also, I think it takes a little bit before anyone else can see it.

It would help if you mention the correct forum next time, Zeusking19. A newcomer who posts in the wrong section is unlikely to figure out which is the correct forum unless you mention it.  wink

@avataro: The search engine on Scratch is a customized search engine, so results won't show up until the project gets indexed by Google  - that might take as long as a few hours, or days, or months, so it's not very reliable when searching for very new projects.

It's easier if you just give your friends the link to the project or your userpage until Google indexes the project.  smile
