poof!
Gotta love it when you spend a good 30-40 minutes on a post - and everything's linked up perfect... you've reviewed & edited here & there... and you're all set... you hit publish and POOF! It's gone. Not published, not saved anywhere, nothing. ug.It's my own fault really... I have used Ecto a lot in this last year, but recently there's some bug (a gut-wrenching, horribly flawed bug) that does this very thing. Takes it, acts like it's posting it and then simply deletes it and acts like nothing's wrong. If it were in front of me, I'd grab it by the shirt, push it against the wall and ask it to empty it's pockets & give me my post back, dammit.
I knew I should have simply selected & copied before I hit publish, because I knew it had been behaving this way. So in the end it's my own stupid fault! blah, aren't the mistakes we make just the very worst kind?
Anyway. You would have gotten a really great post yesterday, but I just didn't have the heart a the time to muster it all up again. I'll attempt it later today.
UPDATE: My post on the Ecto forums was responded to (Thanks Joe, I hadn't received an email notifying me of it) and I implemented their recommended fix & it seems to be working now.
SIDENOTE: Besides this wacky problem I had temporarily, Ecto is a fantastic blogging tool! It saves me a ton of time, and after trying a couple different apps like this, I recommend this one!
