  I have been trying to write a new blog. I save my work, preview it and nothing shows up in the preview, except for the title. I go back to the blog and all the text and photographs are gone. I’m 100% sure I saved the work before it previewed the blog.

  Please help I’m going crazy!

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

  If and only if the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be. See here > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/03/21/wordpress-recovering-a-lost-blog-post-or-page/

  See also if applicable > restoring from trash http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/#restoring-from-trash

  But if the post was created here http://wordpress.com/#!/post/ there is no means of recovery as the auto-save is not functioning there.

  Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
  Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New
  The auto-save works there and the post will be Standard post format unless you change it.

  Do not create posts here > http://wordpress.com/#!/post/ where the auto-save is not working and where you are creating an Aside post format.

  Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/
