  I wrote a piece on a band called Architects and it just deleted. One minute it was there the next minute it wasn’t. I’m afraid to delete my cookies ect because I don’t want to lose my work. I’m new to the whole blogging process so sorry if a question like this seems simple but yeah I’m new!

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

  Don’t use the Beep Beep Boop editor; it has a bug that does this, unfortunately. Use the Classic Editor if you can.

  If you’re using Firefox, before hitting Save or Publish, copy ALL the text in the Write Post box, then while it is still highlighted, click Publish or Save. That seems to force it not to delete. if it ever does fail, you can just paste from the clipboard.

  Thank you for the reply, I think I’ve lost it. I’ll follow your advice for the next ones. Thank you!
