general forum question
Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2018 12:14 pm
A few minutes ago I had spent about ten minutes composing a post and inadvertently
touched my mouse in a way that effectively ran the "back button" and I was unable
to find any trace of what I'd written, not a draft, nothing. I didn't get a warning
saying something like "Are you sure you want to leave this page before saving or
sending this post?" Disappointing.
Is there some way around that that someone knows about? This happened once before
a couple of months ago. I'm anticipating that the answer is no. I think in the future
I should compose my posts elsewhere and cut and paste them into the forum window.
Also once before, I saved a draft, and when I came back later, I could find no
evidence of the draft. In that case I'm sure that must be a problem with me because
there wouldn't be a "Save draft" button if it were not possible to go back and
retrieve my drafts, revise them, and send them. (But I wish the quorum software
saved things automatically, sort of like Gmail does.)
Assuming I'm either stupid or blind, where can I find my drafts that I was obviously
unable to find earlier?
