  Hi. Usually my draft shows on my dashboard and in my posts, but it disappeared yesterday. What happened? I’ve tried suggestions from old topics here, but nothing works. Thanks.

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

  Hi –

  What’s the title of the draft that has gone missing?

  Thanks :) It’s saved as a page draft rather than a post.

  Click on My Sites – Site – Pages – Drafts

  Copy the content of the page and then paste it in a brand new post.

  Write back to me if you need anything else.

  Is it this one?

  It looks like you might have accidentally started it as a page, rather than a post. But you should be able to copy and paste to a new post.

  That’s strange. Thank you both so much.

  I Have just lost my draft. What can I do to retrieve it as I have not kept a copy of it.
