problems with saving post draft

Post by MTT Engineer »

Hi I am a new member and have started to draft a topic
I have spent nearly three hours working on the draft and saving it about every 20 mins.

can anyone help me as when I now go back to my saved draft it does not save the last edit. It is very frustrating after spending a lot of time and effort and then find it has all but disappeared.
what have I done wrong??
or should I abandon your site and write in say word and then post it by copy and post.
Please help

I've tried that at times. If I need to save anything I just post whatever I have then come back after and edit the post to add more.

Why not draft up your post in a WP program, and when you have finished c&p it across to the board?

You can still come back and edit it later.
