Q: How do I change the number of chapters in my book?

Hi, I purchased License Tier 3 and wanted to know how to change the number of chapters. It says on the appsumo listing table, you can have up to 8 main chapters and up to 24 total chapters. However, I couldn't find a setting to increase the number of chapters from 8 to, say, 10 or 12.

I tried looking in different areas of the settings; however, unless I missed something, I couldn't find a setting to change the number of chapters in my book. How do I change the number of chapters in my book? Could you please give me instructions on how to change the number of chapters?

Thank you.

A: Good catch. This one is about how the product is structured.

Right now, you can’t manually set the number of chapters to 10 or 12.

The system is built around a fixed structure:
– up to 8 main chapters
– each with 3 subchapters (so up to 24 sections total)

That’s what you’re seeing in the AppSumo table.

Why it’s set up this way:
It helps first-time authors actually finish a strong, structured book instead of getting stuck in endless outlining.

If you need more depth, the way to handle it today is:
– use subchapters to expand topics within a chapter
– or combine closely related ideas into stronger, more focused chapters

We are looking at adding more flexibility in the future, including more control over structure. But it’s not something you can adjust inside the app yet.

If your book really needs more than 8 chapters, one practical workaround is:
– finish the core 8-chapter version
– then expand or split chapters after export in your editor

That tends to work well without slowing you down during writing.
