Ask HN: How to post under Ask section?
Not able to do it :( ..always post goes under New.
The new section holds every item posted, regardless of wether it is a "Ask HN" or not. The new section is sorted according to the time of the post — most recent first.
The ask section holds every item that is not a link. Consequently, it contains this very post. However, it is sorted according to the HN algorithm [1], which means your post will not show up on the ask front page until it reaches a high enough score.
[1] No reference in mind, but there are a lot of posts about it here and there. Just ask around.
