Is it just me?

Post by Gizmo »

Every time I go to post something I hit the nice big button in the middle of the page, and it takes me to the save draft page. It's getting annoying. I'm sure eventually I'll figure out what I'm doing, but I wonder how often anyone saves drafts of posts on a forum? Is it possible to organize these so that the Submit is the obvious choice (biggest, left most, etc) and the save draft is not as prevalent?

I usually just click the Quick Reply button. Doesn't save any drafts.

Save draft is a pretty cool feature...

I find it especially helpful when composing a post using multiple source references or images for example...

Don't much care where the button lives, so long as we can still do both.

:cool:

I mentioned that early on in another thread and then got to thinking it might be because I'm a lefty so if Louie moved it all the righties would be screwed so I'm just being careful until I get used to it.

(hitting save draft button on accident now) :lol:

Put yer glasses on BBZ... or up the X-power on your screen so you can see what your hitting.

The button in the middle says "Save Draft" to the right of it is "Preview" and to the right of that is "Submit". I always hit the button on the far right that says "submit".

Instructions for using the Beerborg forum:

"At the bottom of the reply screen there is a selection called Topic Review, just below that and to the LEFT is a button that says Submit, to the LEFT of that there is a button that says Preview and to the LEFT of the there is a button that says Save draft. All lefties on this forum must first hit the Save draft button before you will be allowed to reply to a topic."

I don't have a "Topic Review" button on mine. It must be because I went to the light colored format.
