@TashaFrog -- That's not daft! Trust me, it took me awhile to get the hang of things, but once you do - the set up of this site is perfect. xDxD
Do you mean like, to read someone else's books?
You just click on the persons name or display picture, which will then take you to their profile page. Then, if they have any stories posted, scroll down to their works, and click on the book covers or title of the story. Then, it will take you to their first part of their story, then you just click on the down arrow at the top of the story (which will work like a drop down menu - showing all the other chapters/parts of the story) to view other chapters. Or, if you're reading it in one go, once you've finished one page, it would tell you at the bottom 'Name Of Story - Part Two' <- or something along those lines.
Just play around a bit, get a feel for the site, and eventually you'll get the hang of it. That's what I always do - click random buttons just to see what they do (sometimes it's not the best idea though). Haha.
I hope this helps! If not, feel free to ask me as many questions as you like. Remember, the only silly question is the one left unasked.
Have fun Wattpading! :D:D <3
