Unpublishing poems instead of deleting

Can we have  this feature of unpublishing poems (hide from readers) instead of deleting them, so we can easily put them back once the intended purpose was done?

That's an interesting idea....

Good idea, and right now the only ways other than deletion, to hide poems, is to have your account temporarily deactivated--that hides all your work, yet deactivates you, too.   Also, a moderator can hide a poem, so if there's one you want hidden, send a link and we can reverse it too.  I don't know if adding a hide-function to everyone would mess anything up with moderator functions, or allow hiding of poems other than your own.  Will have to ask!

Most of my poems which are included in my book. I have unpublished them already in my googleblogs and wix sites. I don't want to deactivate my account, there must be another way.

Your help would be much appreciated MadameL...

Vic--if you don't want to delete them, pm me a list or links to the ones you want hidden and I can hide them. It doesn't delete them, just allow only mods to see them and no one else, including you, BTW. It can be reversed too so no worries if losing them. For now that might be easiest as the Webmiss has a busy schedule of late and only so much time to keep the site going smoothly.

All the poems under the Love Poems genre, if you won't mind doing this MadameL...I know you have a busy schedule, but if you find time I appreciate all the efforts. I just wish I could this on my own, as we do in submitting and editing our poems. Thanks a lot!

^^Will do, Vic!  I'll start in on them, and if you want them un-hidden at some point, let me know!

As long as one has not used their submission quota one can do that.  Otherwise one will have to wait 8 hours before one can access drafts

(ponders weed and doing it on a daily basis)
