Newbie questions

[chaironp]

I come from another mangasite, I see English versions are not up to date. Are they not accessible unless I pay the min. Membership?
Or are they taken down due to licensing?

If you can see grayed out chapters that are marked as unavailable, those were removed for a DMCA - MangaDex complies with those.

Otherwise, MD isn't an aggregator and only has chapters that someone has uploaded to the site voluntarily. Official releases are not permitted. MD also doesn't allow scanlators who paywall chapters to upload.

Any chapter on the site that is available is available to everyone for no charge - there is no paywalling of chapters here.

Welcome newbie! Just so you know, the tutorial section isn't the correct place to ask for questions. You're better off in the support forums.

Going back to your question: what you see is what you get, no matter if you do or do not pay to become a supporter.

If chapters are taken down due to DMCA requests, then you'll see a checkbox above the chapter list to show the unavailable chapters. In some other cases, chapters have been deleted, because either the uploader or the scanlation group violated one or more of MangaDex's guidelines.

Of course it's also possible that either no one has scanlated the chapters you're looking for or they just haven't been uploaded to MangaDex.

Hi, I'm a newbie and haven't been able to work out yet how to upload a short manga I've created.

First, a little background. My manga is a crossover between Super Cub and The Blues Brothers (Yeah, weird, I know). It's titled 'Super Cub: Sweet Home Hokuto.' (We're on a Mission from Honda). I initially posted it on Reddit, a few years back and it was well received, so now I'd like to post it here.

I've read through all the community guidelines, bit am still unsure how to upload my manga correctly. Any advice would be very welcome.

Thanks in advance.
