Computer crash while typing up uploading

[ekrubynaffit]

I was pretty much writing a book to go with my upload and then everything froze and then went bonkers. I did notice that it kept flashing saving as I was typing, is there anyway to get it back and if so from where?

There would have been if you hadn’t made this post 🙁 The editor only restores the very last one you were working on, sorry!

If you mean in the downloads section, it’s under the ‘My Stuff’ menu:

I quite often type my text into a word doc first and then copy and paste into the text box. Then you only lose the edits you make in the text box.

On this note, you can also restore the last post you were working on by clicking the restore button at the bottom-left of the posting box. It’s saved every 60 seconds and can be restored unless you begin to make a new post, in which case it will be lost.

Not sure if this works in our downloads and tutorials sections, but you can still save those using the save to drafts option before submitting.
