How do I recover my lost blog?
-
I clicked on Save and my blog disappeared. How do I get it back? The title is there, the tags are there. The words are not.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You may be able to recover a post revision. Go to Posts > All Posts, hover over the title of the post, click Edit and check the Post Revisions module for previous saved versions of the post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-revisions/
If you’re not seeing the Revisions module while on the editor screen, click Screen Options (top right corner of your Admin page) http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ to activate it. Then select the post and page modules to include them. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules Then you ought to be able to go here > Dashboard > All Posts > Posts and locate the post and recover it from post revisions.
If you cannot locate the post for locating and restoring a post revision, and it’s not in your Trash folder http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/ then you will not be able to recover it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/#restoring-from-trash
Advice:
Create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog
Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add NewOr use an offline blog editor so you always have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/

Thanks, I did find post revisions… the last version I saved wasn’t there but a previous one gave me about 80% back. I had posted as you advised but in future will write off line.

thanks, I thought I was going crazy :) I was able to recover about 80% of it in previous revisions but the last revision was not the last version I saved
