  Hi, I was working on a post, clicked “update” and it asked me whether I was sure I wanted to do that? So I clicked “update” again and it seemed to have worked, but then when I returned to the document a few hours later, all of my revisions disappeared. There is no sign of them in my edits. Any idea what happened? Any chance at all that I could retrieve it? Thanks.

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

  Hi Mara,

  I’m so sorry to hear that! Sometimes internet connections go in and out and it can cause this to happen. Can you tell me which post you are talking about and I can see if the revisions were saved in our system.

  Cheers!

  Hope that’s it!

  Thanks for the help, Grace. That is the revision I wrote about 4-6 hours after writing/losing the previous version. If you can find that older version that’d be amazing, but thank you for the research that you have already done for me.

  At the top of that Revision page scroll back and see if it’s there. It’ll look like this:

  

  If it isn’t there, unfortunately I won’t be able to recover it for you.
