  For the last two days the posts I am writing on will not automatically save, even if I click on the “save” button. It keeps popping back up to the top of the page and says “Saving Of Draft Has Failed.” Can someone please help me with this? I thought it was just glitch, but it has been happening for two days now. Thank you.

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

  Good day!

  That’s unfortunate you can’t save your posts. If you haven’t already done so, please try the following to see if this will fix your issue:

  1. Logged out and logged in again
  2. Changed browser
  3. Restart machine

  If you are not successful please provide this specific info:

  (a) Exactly what kind of device you are using to connect to the internet and to WordPress.com.
  (b) Exactly which browser (and version of it) you’re using by checking here if necessary http://supportdetails.com/

  Hi there,

  Please follow what @drunkentennis already suggested. I would also recommend clearing your browser’s cache and try again.

  Let me know if the problem persists and we’ll troubleshoot it in depth.

  Thank you for your replies! I tried signing in and out several times when it first happened a few days ago, but nothing happened. However, I just tried it again now and it works! Thank you!! I appreciate your help.

  Hi Fstat,

  It happened again this morning, although when I logged out and logged in again it was fine. Thanks again for your help!
