Hi Scottie,
Sorry to be a nuisance but just wondering does the draft timer continue to refresh @ 5 days following each 'save', or is the time-stamp from commencement?
Thanks

Drafts are located at the bottom of respective threads, where Replies are written. Draft post stays saved there for few days (I think 5) and then gets deleted (if no new edits have been done, I think).Hi
Where do I find my Drafts?
I had one in Romance Novels thread, where I´ve put my thoughts about Makenzies Series and planned to post it all-in-one when I finish the series - and it disappeared!!!
...and I don´t see anything like "Open Drafts..." .....
Tnx!
So, if a reply takes longer to get done, it's suggested to write Draft offline (in some text editor) and then when ready to post it just copy-paste it in the thread.
Hope this helped.
I was hoping that there is also some place where one can see all of them and not that they dissapear.
Tnx.....
You can manually save drafts so you are sure not to lose anything. I have not noticed any expiration limit but there may be one.I was hoping that there is also some place where one can see all of them and not that they dissapear.

They are saved in the threads where they are created. I do not know of a central listing place.
I did exactly that and now it isn't there anymore.
I also noticed that some posts I've read before, now appear unread - when I click on the thread, it brings me to the beginning of the thread and not to the last read.
Did you post the draft? Once it is posted it will not be there as a draft. I think going to the beginning is normal unless you click on a recent alert for a thread. You would have to remember or browse through recent pages to find where you left off.I did exactly that and now it isn't there anymore.

In theory, it should autosave in editor often ( I wasn't sure of the interval). But when the post is large or had tables or bullets etc., I prefer to do it on my local editor and copy paste it. There are times, I lost what I typed forcing to rewrite it. Some times, we involuntarily push some buttons that takes us to different screen and if not is saved by that time, we can lose it. IMHO it depends on the specific situation.Hi

Good to know! Thank you!
Did that, and I had my notes all around (concerning this romance novels): in my telephone, on my computer, my kindle, all around depending where I was reading,...
So I thought to use this Draft option and just put all in there....
And since I´m joggling between homeschooling my kids and my work in last weeks, there wasn´t that much time to finish my readings - and to update my Draft.
...what to say.... now I know - after 7 days, Drafts go away.....
Thank you all!!!
Hi there, after a bit of help. for some reason I've lost the ability to use the formatting menu above the reply box where you type. It's not highlighted as it was previously..
I'm using my android phone so not sure what I've done. Any advice would be appreciated though I do have another device I can use.
