Saving drafts

Postby 19col58 » Sat May 11, 2019 9:22 am

I've spent hours writing a ride report for this years Despatch Rally, clicked on save (probably) and the whole lot has disappeared :? :x :cry: :evil: :twisted: It's probably down to user error, but is there a maximum size for posts on this forum?

Colin, I've lost stuff on the forum before, I think it times out.
For long pieces best to write them in another application and then copy and paste into the forum.
If you think you are about to lose something then highlight the text and copy it (hit CTRL-C)

Thanks Steve, but I don't think it was a time issue. My draft seemed to disappear when I clicked on SAVE.

Sorry I hadn't costed in a while and didn't know the problems you're facing. I'm looking at it now and seeing if I can fix it.
