second time a post I worked on, just disappeared
-
this is getting so annoying. Post in draft form, just completely, missing.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you cannot restore from your browser, or locate a revision, or restore from Trash then the content has been lost and cannot be recovered.
re: recovering a lost post or page
Please go to https://wordpress.com/post with the same browser and see if it offers to restore a post. If a restore button appears, that means a local copy was saved in your browser and you may be able to recover it.If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Pages > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

To locate draft POSTS Dashboard > Posts > All Post > Drafts
http://bonnierussell.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=postTo locate draft PAGES Dashboard > Pages> All Pages > Drafts
http://bonnierussell.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=pageI recommend:
1. Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
Dashboard > Posts > Add New and pages at Dashboard > Pages > Add New
If you have cookies enabled on your browser your preference will be saved unless or until your clear your cookies, and it will take you to the classic editor automatically every time you create a new post via the drop-down menu in the black admin bar or edit a post via the edit button on the blog itself.You cannot deactivate the new Beep Beep Boop editor but you do not have to use it. For locating the ways and means of accessing the legacy or classic pages for creating posts, editing posts, and viewing stats see here > Navigating the Classic WordPress.COM interface http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2015/04/05/navigating-the-classic-wordpress-com-interface/
2. Immediately after creating a post and entering a title click the save draft link. Thereafter, “click save draft” frequently.
3. Always allow pages to fully load before clicking any other links.
4. 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.
5. Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/

Were you using the Beep Beep Boop editor. Or were you using the Classic editor?
Go to > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts
http://bonnierussell.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php
Look for the post title and hover over it. Then click Edit.
-
P.S. I Do not use the new, beep beep boop editor, (which I feel should be booped into oblivion) and always save frequently.
Believe my latest post had about 15 edits so there was zero reason for it to disappear.
Have been blogging here since 2012 and this never used to happen.
Now has happened twice in a month. -
Hi again,
You can there type modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread to draw Staff attention to this. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then please subscribe to this thread so you are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it. -
I might have gotten in Beep.
Could it be stuck in there? Is there any way to dump that awful program?
-
No we cannot disable the new editor. Staff have retained the classic editor but we bloggers have no assurance that it will not be removed when the Beep Beep Boop updated.

Welp. Thanks for trying. Appreciate hour time. “Timethief” is ironic as this is the second time being on wordpress, means my entire morning was absolutely Wasted.
Been blogging here for years. This never used to happen. WordPress wants me to convert to their premium system? No way. Feel free to forward to whom ever might care.
Thanks again for trying.

Hi again,
You have blogger here for 4 years and my next registration birthday here will be a 10 year one.I chose this username because I twice escaped the gripper reaper’s attempts to take my life and was keenly aware I was living on borrowed time. I chose it years before there was a negative connotation assigned to it and when a negative connotation was ascribed to it I refused to be bullied into changing it.
Whether or not one purchases any upgrade has zero impact or contentedness to your issue.
-
GOOD FOR YOU! Glad you dodged the gripper reaper, twice!
I should mention I just happened to go over a past forum you sent, and typed it in, on another computer in and there it was. Rather than try the “Restore” option, I just made a brand-new post.
Enjoy. After all, You ARE partly responsible. :)

Cheers you sly, reaper dodger, you. : D

Actually I have dodged death three times now in total, and the last time was just before my birthday last year, so I’m definitely tough stuff. :)
