  I wrote and saved a blog post draft a couple of days ago, but when I went to post it today, only an old draft was available. I triple checked that the draft saved before navigating away, so I have no idea how this happened. Additionally, I uploaded the pictures as I went and all the pictures are uploaded in the media manager, but no longer appear in the post. I have no idea how to access my completed saved draft!

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

  Revisions allow you to look back at the recent changes you’ve made and revert to an earlier version if necessary.

  I suggest checking for a revision of the post. Here’s more info on doing that:

  Thanks for the info, but the information at that help link appears to be old. The options shown in it do not match the options available to me now.

  On my wordpress.com site, when I view a published post in the edit mode, I see a widget titled “Publish” with information on the post status, visibility, number of revisions, and when the post was published.

  For example:

  Status: Published
  Visibility: Public
  Revisions: 10
  Published on: Mar 28, 2016 @ 15:17

  I hope your post is saved as a revision, otherwise you may want to draft it again.
