  I just wrote an entire post, hit “Publish” and it completely erased everything and published an empty post. I luckily was able to get back to my posting and then tried a simple “Save.” Exact same thing happened: everything deleted.

  Any ideas what’s going on??? I’ve tried several times now, including “Updating” my original (now blank) post, but it still just keeps deleting everything.

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

  Thanks — just did. Originally tried on Firefox and now just tried on Safari. Same result. Is it some WordPress fluke what with all the changes they’ve been making??? Of course then I’d think more people would be over here complaining…
