  Yesterday I “posted” my blog four times in the three hours (according to WP). Then when I trace it on the dashboard, it tells me I am in draft mode from 4:30 PM. Some people who are email subscribers apparently did get the full post, some email subscribers got words and photos but not video. THose on Reader see nothing, Facebook and Tumblr Have the title and a picture but when clicked reference a 404 Error. When I posted a text only blog asking if anyone had received the previous post, it went through fine…What’s up? FYI: I tried posting three times through FireFox and once through Safari.

  That post is still a Draft. You’ll need to hit the blue Publish button to publish it.

  If you read my initial question…I published 4 times yet it is still a draft and the earliest version I saved may I add. I lost 4 complete posts and it always reverted here.

  I have been posting daily since 2/1/11. I know how to hit publish!

  Ok, so once you publish it, it reverts to a Draft?

  If so, try publishing it as a completely new post from Posts -> Add New in your blog’s Dashboard. Just copy and past the content.

  If that works, delete the earlier Draft version.
