  can multiple administrators edit the wedsite at the same time?

  I’m trying to build a site and the changes dont get saved when we make changes on different pages. Is there a way so that we can work and both our changes are saved at the same time?

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

  You can have more than one Admin although it isn’t recommended for security reasons. If changes aren’t saving correctly are you positive you are working on individual pages rather than changing the page template?

  I’m really digging into the grey matter here, but there used to be tools for multiauthor/multiadmin sites. These were published in this ancient WPcom News Blog post and from just a brief test with my other account in the admin role, it looks like you can’t have two or more people editing the same post or page at the same time. If you open the post or page while someone else is editing, you’ll get a notice that someone else is currently editing, which you can preview but your only option is to exit the editor.

  That’s Posts and Pages. I don’t have a clue what happens in the Site/Template Editor, though I imagine it’s something similar.
