    Get back a post after automatically logged off

    This has happened to me many times, I'm not sure what to do.

    I'm creating a post or a post for a new thread.
    I get called away before I can finish it.
    I come back and I've been logged off.
    I log back on and the post I was working on is gone.
    It may have been saved as a draft.
    I can't see how to get back to the draft.

    Thanks

    I'm not following you.
    After being logged off for a few minutes of inactivity (time flies with constant interruptions),
    after logging back in I see this window:

    Where is this reply box?

    I should point out, that after logging back on, the page is at first blank, nothing there, nothing happens, so I have to refresh the page.
    At this point, I need to get back to my draft.

    I have never found this to be an issue here though I had similar issues at another forum.
    If this is a regular problem for you, I would recommend writing the articles in e.g. Word, then posting when complete ...or perhaps writing shorter posts...

    If I don't know that I don't know, I don't know whether to answer

    Yep, I get lazy, think it's going to be a quick post, then I see I need better explanation... then the interruption comes. It's been a very regular problem. If you think I post a lot, you should see the bugs and WTFs that got away.

    Yes you do post a lot. I rarely respond these days as most are very long and often end up in pointless arguments
