  Are you creating a post here? http://wordpress.com/#!/new-post/

  Or are you creating it on the dashboard of your own blog at > Posts > Add New? http://nickde.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php

  Are you running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ ?

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  Exactly which browser and version of it are you running?

  I am trying to save a new page that I am adding text to. Autosave not auto-saving every two minutes as it’s supposed to. No button to save on my own terms. Is this a bug?

  Another person wrote something about being able to set the interval on the auto-save feature. Can’t find such a thing.

  Hi,

  On the Autosave page, we have a screenshot that shows what you are supposed to see when autosave is functioning correctly. Do you not see the “Draft saved at…” on your edit box, like in the screenshot? You are correct that there is no way to change the auto-save interval.

  To save while you are writing, you can click on “Save Draft”.

  Please let me know if you have any questions!
