posts do not publish
-
the last couple of times I have tried to publish a new post, nothing has happened. A green line moves across the top of the screen, implying something is going on, but then it does not say that it has published, and the site remains the same.
ThanksThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Please try creating your post in the classic editor at > Dashboard > Posts > Add New http://pictfamily.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php and let us know how that works for you there.

Provided you did not create the post in the new Beep Beep Boop editor where it’s saved only on your browser, and is not auto-saved to server for your blog I can help you with this.
If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

I recommend:
- Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New - Immediately after creating a post and entering a title click the save draft link. Thereafter, “click save draft” frequently.
- Always allow pages to fully load before clicking any other links.
- Never leave a post or page open for content creation or editing and walk away from it, or open another tab in the same blog and work on something else while it is still open. Save it properly and return to edit it later.
- Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/
If you cannot locate a revision or restore from Trash the content has been lost and cannot be recovered.
- Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at

thanks, it does work from the dashboard, although I do seem to have to start it as a quick draft and then go from there?
Anyway, glad to have a way of getting it to work. I used to always do as you recommend, in terms of the draft saving etc. but then got sidetracked by the new layout, etc.
Still, fine now, thanks.

That’s shouldn’t be the case and I’ll tag this thread so Staff know what you experience.

It looks like you’re using Firefox 13. Would you please update to the latest release (32), and let us know how it goes?
