uastronomer,

There's this one high-traffic website's wordpress instance that LOVES deleting my edits.

I create a new post, give it a title, outline, etc, save draft. Come back a little while later, do the work of fleshing out the article, researching details and adding them in, Save Draft. Repeat for a few days, slowly building up an article to the point where it just needs a few more paragraphs to finish it off, proofing, adding images. SAVE DRAFT.

Next day: The draft is back to the original. No history of any changes after the initial save.

Writing used to be fun.

uastronomer,

I don't blame wordpress, incidentally. I use and maintain a LOT of wordpress installs. This is not a problem I see anywhere else.

@uastronomer Is it on a different server than your other installs? How annoying!!!!

uastronomer,

@Fury This one doesn't belong to me - I just write articles for them from time to time. Ah well, I guess I could always go old-school and do all my drafting in a word processor, but I rather like wp's block editor :(
