Does the Draft function even work?

Postby heracles » Wed Dec 03, 2014 5:50 pm

I just started a post and almost completed it but decided I needed to navigate away for some research so I hit "save draft". When I came back to retrieve it it wasn't there. It seems I've had similar problems in forums with similar draft options. Maybe the button should just be removed if it doesn't work.

Hiya..

Did you press the ''postreply'' button and then find that the ''load draft'' button wasn't there at the bottom of the message box?

Right atm, I have 3 buttons at the bottom of my message box; ''Save draft'', ''Preview'' and ''Submit''.. If i was to save this to drafts and then come back to reply later on, i'd have an additional button for ''Load draft'' here.

hope this helps a bit xx

I have three drafts at the moment. And have had various posts for some months. So I think it does work. Just to cover the obvious- you've checked ucp.php?i=main&mode=drafts and it isn't there?

I do have one draft on file from more than 2 years ago. I don't remember if I ever sent it to a thread. The one I sent to the draft file a few days ago never showed up there. That's okay. I'll just start using Notepad.
