where's my draft post




Topic started on 4-11-2007 @ 03:37 PM by x-phile


I saved it yesterday and now I cannot find it.

How does it work? I looked in my profile and there's nothing listed.

THanks for any help.

I feel ya. I am constantly losing my drafts. They just disappear after I hit "save reply as draft".

Did you look in "member center" under "draft posts"? Often I can find my draft there but I have yet to be able to actually retrieve it.

Sometimes my drafts end up defaulting to the thread itself and they are even titled as drafts. As they are usually incomplete and filled with spelling errors, this can be pretty embarassing. You can delete these in member center.

However, if you open another page without saving your draft, there is no going back to the original. Now I have taken to composing them in a word file and then cutting and pasting onto the board.

Good Luck.

found the info.

New threads = draft option not available ( yet)

replies = draft can be created

thread



For now, this new feature is only functioning on replies. However, we'll soon include the ability to save new thread posts as drafts as well.

Don't use the draft function, even when saving replies. It is common for it to screw up, posting your reply in the actual thread when you don't want it to or losing the reply altogether.
