This is how you create gem choices right?

I’m pretty sure Before GEMS and after 5 you’re supposed to put< >
so it would look like,
GEMS:5"Casual" {
@THE READER changes into THE READER_casual
THE READER
I want to feel comfy.
}

Let me know if that works :blush:
It doesn’t show up on here :thinking:
Let me look at it in the portal…

Do you want them all to be gem option?

Gem choices aren’t displayed in the Writer’s Portal. As long as it works when you test it in the mobile app, it will work for readers.

Usually you let the reader try on the clothes and then make the gem choice when they confirm they want to keep the outfit. Otherwise, why would people pay for an outfit when they don’t know what it looks like?

In situations like this, I’d recommend you use a Dara Amarie template.

Thank you everybody for your help. Maybe I’ll leave out the gem choice until I’m able to understand how to create them more.

I have an edit script that I did I can send it to you and you can edit you out fit names to it it only has one gem choice and I edited it from Dara so keep the reader message

You will need her tappable overlays for it

Hey if u need help I can make a template for u

you did everything right you just need to add labels and move the gems to a second choice link so it won’t charge them if they want to not do the gems here’s your script edited with no tappables

Thank you. I appreciate it. I can’t wait until the day I can answer questions rather than asking them. I am such a newbie. :laughing:

I hope they work if not I can test them out in my test story that won’t get published unless I do a tutorial type thing

You can use this template for outfit gem choices.
