Serendipity Forums

I've been editing my page and occassionally I come back to it and the edits are gone. I noticed that when I save it, the little iframe up the top sometimes goes back to the home admin page instead of showing a "view" button. When this happens my edits are gone. It's strange, I've had it happen randomly on firefox & chrome and sometimes it works again when I do the same edits later on.

Hi!

This could happen if you loose your session data in between. When you write really long articles, you should save the page every now and then, so that by default you never take more than 18 minutes between each page request. Saving the article both prevents data loss when your browser might crash, as well as preserver the session.

Another way would be that you use a new browser window/tab to login to your blog again, and only after that return to the old window, hit F5 to resubmit the data with a valid session.

HTH,
