Drafts not saving

Hi, I’m finding that my drafts are no longer auto-saving. It just says “Saving…” at the top in grey text, and I cannot click on it to force a save.

What I have to do is copy the entirety of my text into another application, so I don’t lose it. When I paste it in, or make any other changes like Featured Image, etc., I have to click “Save” as soon as possible before it starts to auto-save, otherwise the link is gone (greyed out) and I can’t save it at all.

I’m using Chrome on a Mac, and this problem started for me yesterday.

Thanks for any assistance!

OK just tried it in Safari and it works fine there. Looks like it may be a Chrome issue.

Clearing my WordPress cookies in Chrome solved the problem.

Hey so I’ve been working on this post and it keeps popping up with “Saving of draft failed”
How do I fix this? Do I log out and log back in?

I have tried editing it on the dashboard as well, but I do not like the design and I prefer the improved editing site.

Oh, dang. I thought I marked this as resolved yesterday, but it clearly didn’t go through. Trying again.
