Two blogs posted but no content shows only title
-
After writing two blogs, received reply that they were posted. All I see on the posts are the titles: “False Sense of Security” and “Corporate Efficiency???” My whole content is lost. Help, please.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I’m afraid do not see any content or revisions for those posts, so it looks like the content was never saved.
To troubleshoot this further and possibly prevent it from happening again in the future, it will help to know how you wrote these posts.
Did you:
1) compose those posts from the WordPress.com Reader, like this: https://wordpress.com/post/
2) use the post editor window in your Dashboard, and if so, did you ever save them as drafts before publishing?
3) compose them on a mobile device using the WordPress app, and if so, did you publish the posts prior to leaving the app?
Finally, if you used a computer rather than a mobile device, do you have third-party cookies enabled? http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

I published the posts exactly as I had done for the previous posts. I did not save a draft, I just posted, then a screen came up with a green circle with a check mark in it that stated the post was published. I just now posted “Blog Issues” just to see what would happen and all the content is there. Why is it that the titles appear on the other two blogs but the content doesn’t? Thank you for all you help!

It sounds like the content was never saved in our system. Were you on a computer or mobile device? It’s possible your device, whichever it was, lost a connection to WordPress.com and the content was never saved. You can try using a different browser, or if on mobile, use the WordPress app if you aren’t already. If you’re on a computer, I’d also recommend once again that you check your third-party cookies.
Finally, if you are composing a longer post, you can do so in the Dashboard editor and save drafts as you go to make sure there’s a backup in case something happens.

I was on the computer. I do not use mobile devices (apps). I will do what you suggest in the future, but I am still baffled as to how the title got posted but the content did not??? Thanks again!

I wish I could give you a definitive answer. This has been known to happen on occasion, likely due to brief connection issues that you wouldn’t even notice. That’s why it is safer to use the Dashboard editor if you have longer posts, as you can manually save drafts which can be used if there’s a snafu somewhere along the line.
