That’s just cruel.
You spend an hour typing a blog post, taking and uploading videos, editing and chatting. Then two people see it before it disappears from the site. For no apparent reason??
Maybe it was the videos the system didn’t like … maybe it was a ‘higher being’ … but I did not save the text which made up the post anywhere else before I pressed publish. For a while I could see it in ‘Preview’ but no way of copy and pasting it from there. So, I am now treating myself to some amazing eggy-bread as I call it, which I copied from this amazing blogger The Thankful Heart to cheer myself up.
Her photos look a hundred times better than mine, but it tasted divine and my cup of tea with it has helped.
Just going to lick my wounds for seven minutes … and then I’ll get back on with some work.
Old school- Word and save before WordPress- I know, long tedious and convoluted but you have a backup if your work wafts off into the netherworld.

Such good advice, the old school stuff 🥂 but I type 98% of my posts on my phone! I don’t have word on my phone (can you get word on your phone I wonder) so notes might work ☺️

You could try contacting WordPress “help”. I have found them very good at finding stuff that vanishes into the great ether.

It’s harvest time somewhere. I’m usually the one who deletes my posts after two readers see them; I’ve got to stop doing that. Save those drafts, Viola Bleu!

Oh no! 🤣🙈
I know … I think in future, when I’m trying one up on my phone (which has always worked so well before, saving as draft as I go) I’ll do a select and copy onto notes – just in case!!!
