  I had completed a rather lengthy bog post. I moved a picture from left to right and did SAVE DRAFT. It deleted my whole post and it is no longer there. Anyway to get back to a previously saved version? Help. I can’t be as funny if I have to write it again! :-)

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

  Check the post revisions for a previously saved version. If you’re not seeing the Revisions module while on the post editor screen, click Screen OPtions (top right) to activate it.

  Is that just on the upgrade version? I don’t have post revisions, only recent drafts and it shows the one that was last saved, not previous versions. The one that was last saved was just 1 picture…not the entire written portion.

  I recommend checking the trash section by navigating to the Post section via your dashboards left navigation bar here is a screen capture displaying how to access the trash section for posts

  If the post can be found in the draft section then after opening the post in the blog editor you’ll find the post revision at the very bottom of the editor page…

  I think I found it. I did the Screen Options while in the post and selected revisions. It was there…or at least a really good last version. THANKS SO MUCH!!!!
