AutoSave to the rescue
November 13, 2008
We know how frustrating it is to lose a post before you've have a chance to save it -- whether to a browser window closed accidentally, a power outage that shuts down your PC, or a spilled cup of tea that shorts out your laptop. So, we're very happy to announce that we're adding AutoSave -- one of your top feature requests -- to the new TypePad Compose screen. This feature will be rolled out to everyone on the new platform over the coming week.
Here's how it works:
TypePad now automatically saves your post (or page) every 15 seconds...
If you lose a post before saving or publishing, return to the Compose screen where TypePad will give you the option to recover it...
When you click "Recover it", TypePad recovers the last saved version of the post...
There is a small group of you whose blogs are still in the process of being migrated to the new platform (we want to make sure we make the transition as smooth as possible for you) but we should be on track, as Ben predicted, to have everyone on the new platform by the end of the year.
