I cant find my drafted discussion

[Rev Willow Raine]

MM, I was writing about the history of my abuse and saved it to draft so I could work on it today. But...I cant find it. I certaintly hope it wasnt published as it contains deep personal issues and graphic descriptions that need to be edited. How can I find it?

Hi Willow,

I'm sorry you're having trouble finding it... were you typing the draft in a PACA discussion or your PACA blog? If so, it would only post if you clicked the "save" button within the PACA posting screen, but I'm not seeing it anywhere. If you started to type it and closed the window, it wouldn't have saved.

If you were typing it into a word document on your computer, try starting test document and then start saving it to see where your system default puts it. Sometimes the system will ask you where you want to save it, but sometimes it has a default set. If you look to see where it goes, you may be able to find your document there. If that doesn't work, try doing a search on your system by typing the file name or the title into your system search. If you're working on a library computer, one of the librarians should be able to help you, but you'll probably have to get back onto the same computer that you started the document on.

If you ever do accidentally post something to PACA that you don't want to keep, it's easy to fix. Discussions and blogs will have a "Delete Discussion" option in the top-right of the original post that is viewable only to the original poster and to Admins. Discussion comments will have a small "x" located in the top-right corner that is viewable only to the commenter and to Admins.

I hope this helps... I certain it's not on PACA anywhere, but if you do find it here and need help removing it, just let me know.

Blessings,
~ DF
