    Suggestion. Please add an “are you sure you want to publish” step in-between hitting the Publish button and having the post appear. I have on a few occasions accidentally hit the publish button instead of preview, sending an not-yet-ready post into a few hundred mailboxes and out onto various social media platforms. It’s a headache to have to remove the post from all the spots it inadvertently appeared in. Thanks.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    This is truly a great suggestion! The save, publish and preview buttons are so close to each other its perfectly easy to hit publish by mistake!

    Thanks for that idea. I don’t have any support for it as I can clearly see a save draft button in the Publish module.

    Ditto this request. I did the same thing a couple of times.
