AO3 question

*flings self on mercy of flist*

On AO3, how do you get a story to show up as a "work in progress"? I had no idea that the little green checkmark meant "completed story", until I started noticing fics that had the other symbol (the red circle), and mouse-overed to find out what it was. So now I've realized I really should switch my one WiP (the Neal dragon one) so that it doesn't show up as a completed work, but I can't find anything anywhere in the edit window to let me do that. HALP.

ETA: Lightning-fast answer! (Or an alternate but similar method.) Thanks, guys!

If you check the "this fic has multiple chapters" ticky-box, you'll get a text field for how many chapters the fic has. Put in a number that's higher than the number of chapters you've actually uploaded, and you'll get the WIP red circle.
