DRAFT POST KEEPS CRASHING!!

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have been working on a post for atleast a month now on the browser. I downloaded the android app version of wordpress on Oct 30th. Since then I have been using the computer version. Today (Nov 13th) I opened the app again but it didn’t update anything i had written since Oct 13th. We I go to the browser version, not only is it reverted to the saved file on Oct 30th, it also completely freezes. WordPress.com works, my dashboard works and even my other drafts work. When I open this particular draft the WHOLE SITE FREEZES and I get a chrome error asking me to kill the site. Is there anyway I can restore my draft to how it was, say, yesterday? If not I basically lost a month of writing, experimental data, and roughly 2500 words because I tried to use the app.

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

    Btw the blog I need help with is not sugessplaylist.wordpress.com. That was something that got added presumptuously. God I hate this site…

  • Hi there,

    the blog I need help with is not sugessplaylist.wordpress.com.

    Can you please give the blog you do need help with? And a link to the specific post that’s causing problems?

    If you have missing content it can most likely be restored from the post revision history, but there’s no way to check if you don’t tell us which post to look at.

    Well I never published the post so I don’t know how I can link it. The blog is
    macrobatics.wordpress.com and the postin question is https://wordpress.com/post/macrobatics.wordpress.com/2314. Something must be screwed up in the CSS. I figured out the revision history bit ( for those who want to know you have to go dashboard>WP admin>posts and on the left under “publish” you can browse through the revisions). Writing in the “improved™” editor still crashes the whole site but I guess I can use the old editor for now.

  • So the post titled “[The Fast Life] Conclusion”, correct?

    I can confirm that trying to edit that in the My Sites editor causes the browser to crash. I don’t see anything wrong in the HTML though, and if I copy the content from the HTML editor in WP-Admin, create a new post in My Sites, paste the content into the HTML editor there, and then switch to visual, the My Sites editor has no problem with that post.

    At this point I can only guess, but I think between the mobile app and the editor something must have become corrupted that is confusing the new editor somehow. Creating a new post fixes that, so you can do that to prevent further issues going forward, but I can’t see exactly what might be causing this, so I don’t know how to fix the existing draft.
