Newly Published Instructables not Appearing
Not sure if this is a bug or not...is it now normal for new Instructables to take hours to show up on the site after being published? The last one took a few hours and currently one I published 6+ hours ago is still not visible on the site. Previously, after I hit 'Publish' it only took a couple minutes for an Instructable to become public. Thanks!

I posted my first instuctable today, and it still hasn't shown up It was a worry, I thought I had done somerthing wrong! So I have deleted rehashed and republished a few times. This has helped put my mind at rest, hope that all is up and running soon.

Jan 9, 2012. 9:20 AMReplyTo prevent spam and offensive Instructables there's a list of words that will automatically put an Instructable into a queue for checking by a human. This sometimes takes up to a day. While it's annoying for genuine authors, it's a lot better for a few of us to have to wait a little while than the site become inundated with adverts for roofing, drugs and cheap watches, right?

Jan 9, 2012. 3:14 AMReplyI copied the content of the Instructable into a new template, deleted it and published the new one to test exactly how long the lag is. I hit 'Publish' at 5:59 AM (EST) and am checking in to see how long it will be before it shows up on the site (and can receive views/be entered in contests, etc.). Hasn't happened yet...

in reply to Jan 9, 2012. 7:37 AMReplyWow! It is still not available.

in reply to Jan 9, 2012. 5:13 AMReplyOkay, that's two hours now. Also, since not many new projects are showing up, I'm guessing I'm not the only person with Instructables listed as published that are not publicly available. Or did the process just change and I missed it?

in reply to Jan 9, 2012. 4:09 AMReplyNot up yet. I did get the 'Your contest entry was received e-mail' right at 5:59, so that is confirmation that part of the publishing process happened immediately.
