Sometimes when I edit a Hub, when I hit save, most of the article goes by-by. So, I hit the back button and redo my edits. I keep telling myself to save the article with ctrl + C before I hit save, and then I don't do it. Why does that happen?
Please realize that each text capsule auto saves your draft. You can recover your draft by clicking on the lower left hand corner of a text capsule, should need to recover some of your text.
I've used it a couple of times.
But, sometimes browser issues will occur.
Lots of issues are occurring these days, given the pace HP is keeping with making changes to the site. I'm sure it will all get worked out, although that doesn't help you now. Maybe revisit your changes tomorrow.
And when you do, and when you hit "done editing" after completing your edits, wait for the hub to appear as you edited it...that can take quite a while. You may see a spinning wheel and the word "loading". Just wait it out.
Control-C isn't going to do you any good for text that isn't highlighted.
Thanks Casgil, I will learn to use the recover draft option! Your a life saver.
Sally, that is why I don't copy it every time, I am too lazy to highlight everything. Ah well, thanks for the help you guys!

It would be useful if there was an option to save a published article after edits have been made, but not completed so that edits could be completed later and the tab closed. Then an "update online version" button would update the live version after completion of edits. Maybe edits...

I've got an idea for my first hub and hope to start working on it in the next few days.If I were writing my hub as a straight article, I would probably end up with 7-8 sections and use subheadings for each one. Looking at the guide, I note a recommendation to use a number of smaller text capsules...

I was writing a hub when all of a sudden internet explorer shut down. I noticed as I was writing this little auto-save pop up come up. Can I recover my work?? When I restored my last session everything I typed was gone.

When I was working on a hub earlier today, I saved the capsules and clicked the done editing button, but the text didn't actually save, so I had to retype everything into the capsules.This has happened several times lately and a number of times throughout my HP times. I'm not sure if it's a fluke...

A very kind soul noticed a month ago that I need to learn how to break up my text with photos or something between the paragraphs when my text is long. She explained how to do it. I tried and couldn't grasp it. Then I misplaced or accidentally deleted her email -- so I haven't...

I give! I've searched the first 3 or 4 pages of "Getting Help" Forum and I've read the entire Link's Capsule section in the Learning Center (http://hubpages.com/learningcenter/using-hubtool). That Hub, by the way, has a large number of Quick Links in it. How do you create a list of topics...
