I am doing my best to stop using our dryer... I have dried my last 2 loads of diapers on my drying racks outside, but this week is supposed to be gross and rainy, and in the winter I can't put things outside... so is there any special trick to line drying inside?

The only trick I know is to put them in the draftiest spot possible....somewhere with a fan and high traffic and give space between items....they need airflow more than heat.

I put a second tension-style shower curtain rod over my bathtub. We hang our shirts on hangers and put them on the rod. For diapers, you could put a rack over the tub and dry them that way.

Thank you so much for the tips! I set up my 2 drying racks in the dining room because there is a ceiling fan in there and I turned the fan up to he fastest setting so hopefully they are getting some good airflow

I've been thinking of drying inside, too. We aren't allowed to dry outside (and it's not recommended for asthma/allergy sufferers).
We have coin op washer/dryer and I want to save money!

Everything dried pretty well!! I had stuff in my dining room under the ceiling fan which was on high and it seemed to work well. I did put it in the dryer for about 20 minutes just to get it all dry, but if I had left it on the racks over night it would have all dried
