Help find saved post

[freespirit]

I wrote a little fictional story and lost it when I hit submit. So I wrote it again and this time saved it. But now I can't find it to bring it back to the fiction area. Can anyone help me or is it gone?

I'm not sure if there is an easier way, but this is how I do it.

At the top of the pages is "User Control Panel", click on this.

Click on "Manage Drafts" on the left side.

Click on "Draft"

You should see a list of saved drafts

On the center, right, you will see a collum marked "SAVED AT"

Under this you should see "Load Draft"

Click on this and it should bring up the draft.

Umm... how does a post get saved as a draft in the first place? I dont' see any options for that.

Doh! I see.

It only works for new posts (not edits to existing posts), and obviously, it only works if you've bothered to save it in the first place.

This is why I often compose long messages elsewhere, like on Google Docs or on my blog, and then copy the text into a post.

I usually do the same thing in Word then copy and paste here. Sure helps with my sspellng.

Thank you "Locked By LRC" I went step by step and was able to find my saved draft and post it in the fiction area. Thank you for taking the time to show me step by step what to do.

"Tom Allen" thanks for the idea to type it up on word and save it, then cut and paste it into the right place in this forum.

Have a nice day.
