What Do You Do? Your CPU Crashes and You Haven't Saved!

This mornning, I was almost finished my blog. Yeah, like the tittle says my CPU crashed. I didn't want to shut down because of the fear of losing all my work. I never saved even once ( Dumb Ass). So I thought what if I login on anouther CPU and leave this one running? My other laptop has some harddrive issues and it had not been booted in a while. It booted, and I loaded my dashboard. To my suprize the post was there, I opened it and saved.

I'm not sure if it was the auto save that is built into WordPress or I saved myself a couple hours work. One thing is for sure though. I'm going to save allot more often.

thanks for reading

Brian

Hi Brian do a backup every now and then a well. The WP autosave is great as you can go back and load what was saved before. Only thing is it can glog up WP.

Mark infront my website say NAME MY LINK I think because I should of paste the amazon code directly on my website instead of in the word press, am not sure but am certain that's why the name my link is my problem.. any suggestion am gladly to hear about it. I always go into my word press and delete the post and redo it. but, before I do that I need others input..her's my site..

That is really pain when that happen..it happen to me too. i have to rewrite everything the whole darn thing.

Hi Brian - it is the auto-save in WP that "saved" your post.

To be honest, you don't fall foul of a "I've spent ages on this, and my computers just crashed" without learning the hardway to save often - thankfully WP has this built-in!

Either way, you can't rely on systems backing you up - good, sensible practice to press the save/update button often - just in case :)

All the best, Mark

yeah lol, I conker

Mark I am having such a hard time trying to post link into my website..any suggestion?

Ginger you have to highlight the text that you want to link then you scroll to the top and click on the chain link or the word link depending on if you are in visual or text then add the link in the popup
hope this helps

Hi Ginger - did CrazyMonks suggestion work ok for you?

If not, where are you trying to post the link to? Is it to a page on your website, or to a comment here?

All the best, Mark
