I just published a post entitled “Rain, the cat and the trestle” and when I went to check on it, all the images were gone as was the text. The original post wasn’t in “Trashed” bin so I don’t know what happened. Has this ever happened to any of you?
The images I uploaded were all there in the Media Library so I don’t know what to think. Any suggestions?
Saying nothing in particular 
And a very beautiful cat at that.

Never happened here as sounds like a Glitch ??
You had two instances of the post open and mistakenly saved the empty draft?
Personally, all my literary posts are written in GDocs, I then transfer them. WordPress has a different editor and finds technical mistakes that GDocs misses, but I try to copy back to google what wp corrects.
WP often finds a “version” that wasn’t saved and if I opt to apply the newer, unsaved copy — have gotten unexpected results.
Compelling image, that.
Hi Anon – thanks for the feedback. I couldn’t find anything in the Drafts folder. The whole post, history and all was gone.
It happened to me several times and I hated it each and every time.
It makes me wonder if it’s time to pack it in. So discouraging.
No! Don’t pack it in because you are needed here JT

Do you have two factor log in enabled ?
If not – set it up right away
I will give that a try, thanks!
☀️😊
It so is. At first I thought it was me but when it happened again, I knew I wasn’t so absent-minded.
Wow. Sorry to hear.
WP can really suck at times.
No but I hope this isn’t contagious!
Doesn’t seem to be.
That’s really strange. I’ve hard about so many new problems on WordPress (mine included) but not this one. I hope you’re able to figure it out, JT.
Hi Jan, perhaps the post didn’t save, that has happened to me. So sorry!
I think you’re probably right. Thanks!
Jan, I have had that happen on my saved drafts, but never on a published post. Reloading a bunch of photos is a pain. The fact that the pictures are still in your Media Library is mystifying.
The WordPress system could have marked it for quarantine, and it’s currently in a queue waiting for someone at WordPress to check it. It could also be a bug connected with the theme you’re using. WordPress has deleted and stopped supporting many of the old themes. It’s probably worth checking with one of their Happiness Engineers.
