A masterlist is a post that shows all of your works, or posts that youβd like to display. If you make edits, or you write, then these are very helpful to have.
The kind that is rebloggable:
UnderneathΒ βEdit Appearanceβ to the right
ClickΒ βMass post Editorβ
Here you will find a map of every post youβve made
Title it however youβd like
On the MPE (mass post editor) find the post youβd like to add and right click on the gray square itβs in (or picture or video)
ClickΒ βopen in new tabβ
Type out the title of the post youβre going to add a link to
Go to the post in a separate tab and copy the link from it
Head back to the Masterlist
Select over the title you typed
Choose the figure eight in the middle of the bubbles above your title
A new grey bar should come up
Paste your link into the grey bar
PressΒ βDoneβ to the right of the bar
Your title should have a grey line under it
I would suggest that you save your work once youβve done the first link, and put it into your drafts
If you arenβt sure where to go from here, thereβs more advice below
The kind that opens up on a new page:

If you were unsure how to go on from there, hereβs some more facts and tips about masterlists.Β
Each link is normally sorted into a category, such as:
Post type (scenario, one-shot, fanfiction)
Genre (fluff, smut, angst, humor)
If your post is too long for your liking, then you can put it in bulletpoints
To put it in bulletpoints - highlight the text and click the bubble with three dots and three lines
Many blogs keep links to their masterlists in their descriptions
here is a good tutorial (not by me)
Most masterlists (as I recommend) have warnings on them
Things that you might like to warn your followers of are if your posts mention:
Sex related themes (like smut)
Homosexuality and\or sexuality themes
Examples of final masterlists that are well sorted are:
