Post not saving draft or publishing
-
For the past half an hour I have been attempting to publish a post. It goes into my drafts and then when I edit it, save the changes and publish it tells me that it has. However when I check my page, the post is not showing. If I go back into the dashboard, it is still in the drafts with all the saved changes no longer there.
I am using Firefox and have been for some time with no difficulty whatsoever.
Pleas help.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Did you check the post visibility setting? http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/

Edit the post.
For editing see:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/
Look at the visibility setting.

Make sure it is set to Public.
Click the big blue Publish button. -

P.S. There could be an issue with the datestamp so check it and the timestamp too when you edit. Note this image as it may help you http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/schedule-a-post/scheduling/

Are you aware that scheduled posts do not publish until the first visitor to the blog after the date and time set triggers publication?

Well the info on when the scheduled posts come through is new to me. They have always posted when I want them to.
I have published almost 150 posts and I have a lot of blog traffic. I generally post 2-3 times each day and I have never had this issue. I realise that you need to post in 24 hour time.
And the scheduled post didn’t work – and I have been to my blog to check so that should have triggered it. -

Just as a long shot do make sure you did not accidentally create a page instead of a post as I did that once in error.

SIGH … I have been around a long time and have made there is to make. Too bad we did not resolve this but not to worry as Staff will when they work their way to this thread.

I am going to shut down my computer and re-start and see if that makes a difference. One might never know.

You sound like you are the same kind of blogger that I have done that. :) I have also disconnected my router and waited 20 minutes and then reconnected and rebooted and it worked!
-
I had already tried disconnecting my wi-fi and that didn’t work but re-starting the computer did!!
My post has been published!!!!! Woo hoo.
Thank you so much for your impressive assistance. I truly am grateful. :) -
Alleluia! You succeeded. You deserve a gold star for tenacity and innovation. Happy blogging! :)
