You may or may not have noticed, that you can save your posts as a draft, for you to edit later.

Well, that worked fine if you were saving a draft that was just a reply to a post.

MST found that the junk was broke when it came to making a new post that was originally saved as a draft.

Fixed that now. So I thought a little HOWTO was in order for this junk.

First:

Type your brilliant, thought provoking, post, spell check it of course (unless you're perfect and we know you are)

Next:

Click the button. Located at the bottom new the Preview and Submit buttons.

After this completes you will be taken to the Forum Index

You can view your drafts and edit them further by clicking on the link on the Forum Index called:


View your drafts and posts


What that area of the Forum Index looks like:




After clicking the link you will see your drafts new the top of the "results" page, since you are basically doing a search on your posts, that looks like this:



Select the post you want to edit by clicking the link for that topic. Edit it as you would edit or post a regular post, then either resave it as a draft, or click submit to make the post LIVE.

Drafts are automatically deleted if they are 30+ days old. So, in case you are working on your memoirs, make your post live before that 30 day mark.
