lost edits

    My client was editing a draft of an article and saved it on multiple occasions. Each time he saved the article his changes were reflected in the draft… But then, the xth time he hit save, instead of refreshing with the changes, the article reverted to the original un-edited version. So all of his edits were lost.

    I asked my host for help and thier reply was as helpful as you can imagine:

    Unfortunately we can not explain the behavior you describe. This would not be caused by a backup being run on your database, even during the time your updates were submitted to the database. You may want to report this behavior to the developers of your CMS software to see if they can offer any more insight.

    Has anyone ever experienced this happening?

    Oddly, the lost post wasn’t the only change, on top of that, all of the settings for one of my plugins were reverted to the default state. Could this happen if there is a DB optimization script running? Could the optimization intersect a post save, and revert a plugin settings to default?

    I lost my 1300+ word post when I tried to save draft. BLAM, GONE. I give up. I’m done with this. No more writing. No more articles, no more frustration. I refuse to watch 3 1/2 hours of my time wasted for a site that won’t work properly.
