That popup is meant to prevent you from leaving the page accidentally; it should not pop up when you are saving the post.

This is on my immediate to-do list. Feel free to send any additional details about the bug via feedback; it might help me track this down!

I'll send in a feedback and see if we can get a staff member to take a look at this.

That will at least get the darn thing to post in the first place.

But I still can't EDIT the post from a couple of days ago. Very, very strange.

but then suddenly resolved itself. Very strange. I also attempted to edit the post I had trouble with yesterday, and still no dice.

One of our authors is having this exact problem. She has lost text on several posts now and is extremely frustrated. She is using IE.

ETA: This just started happening yesterday. I feel it must be related to the new features - a new bug? Any insight would be appreciated. Should I set up her account again?

What browser are you using?

2 done six times, on different posts as well as the same one
3 done.
I came here to see if anyone else was experiencing the same issue. I didn't see anything I could identify as related on the first couple of pages of posts, and this is a brand-new issue for my blog at least, so I erroneously concluded that it was a new problem altogether. Sorry.

A search has turned up a few threads but no-one has been able to provide a decent resolution as yet.

Can I suggest that you:

1. Clear your cache and cookies.
2. Try again.
3. Send a feedback and see if we can get a good resolution for this?

I tried adding a link to an existing entry, and when I hit "Post" or even "Save and continue editing" I get the same thing: a popup box warning me against "Navigating away from this page". No matter whether I select Cancel or Okay, the changes do not save.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Never seen it before, that's for sure.
