Just signed up and wrote lengthy post w/several questions. Chose option to "Preview Post". Lost message and had to log back in. Any way to retrieve that lengthy draft? I will not "Preview" the next time!
I already posted a message regarding this but then saw this specific form for Technical Support and Feedback. I first registered today, wrote a lengthy post with numerous questions, selected "Preview Post" and lost entire post and had to log on again. Next time I will be sure to forgo "Preview" and just "Submit". Is there any way to retrieve my post (just hoping).

Yes, thanks, I would do that the next time and surely would have the first time had I known "Preview" meant "Lose It All". I was just wondering--if this has been a problem for others as it was not a good first time exerience and also if retrieval was at all possible.

Welcome to Flyertalk.
There's a technical support and feedback forum where you can check to see if it's a common thing or not.

I don't preview that much, but do know people have mentioned it in the past from time to time.

Your loss probably occurred at the time of a rare FlyerTalk outage; "Preview" usually works quite well. But I find if I am preparing a long post I will probably copy it into a document to have as a backup.
