Hello.

@Ange Tuteur provided a javascript for this feature (https://help.forumotion.com/t132804-automatically-save-posts-in-progress) that worked when I first implemented it but I've noticed that it's no longer working. I've re-copied and pasted the code back in but it's still not working. I've tested this on Windows with Chrome, Mac and iPad with Safari and Samsung mobile with Chrome.

I thought maybe it's an ad-block issue so disabled ad-block but this feature still fails.

Thanks.

Code:

window.localStorage&&$(function(){
$(function(){
if($("#text_editor_textarea").length&&typeof $.sceditor!="undefined"){
var a=$(document.post.mode).val(),
d=$("#text_editor_textarea").sceditor("instance"),
e,f,g=function(){
localStorage.setItem(a,d.val());
f=0},
b=JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("br-data"))||[],c;
switch(a){
case"editpost":return;
case"reply":a+=$(document.post.t).val();
break;
case"newtopic":a+=$(document.post.f).val()
}
a=parseInt((my_getcookie("fa_"+location.hostname.replace(/\./g,"_")+"_data")||"0").replace(/.*s:6:"userid";(i:([0-9]+)|s:[0-9]+:"([0-9]+)");.*/,"$2$3"))+a;
-1!=(c=$.inArray(a,b))&&b.splice(c,1);
if(20<b.length){
for(c=b.length-1;0<=c;c--)/^\s*$/.test(localStorage.getItem(b[c])||"")&&(localStorage.removeItem(b[c]),
b.splice(c,1));
20<b.length&&(localStorage.removeItem(b[0]),
b.splice(0,1))}b.push(a);
localStorage.setItem("br-data",JSON.stringify(b));
$(document.post).submit(function(){
localStorage.setItem("br-target",a)
});
!d.val()&&((e=localStorage.getItem(a))&&d.val(e));
d.keyUp(function(){
f||(f=setTimeout(g,3E3))
})}})});
window.localStorage&&(localStorage.getItem("br-target")&&function(){
$("meta[http-equiv='refresh'][content]:first").length&&function(){
var a=JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("br-data")),
b=localStorage.getItem("br-target"),c;
if(-1!=(c=$.inArray(b,a)))a.splice(c,1),
localStorage.setItem("br-data",JSON.stringify(a));
localStorage.removeItem(b)}();
localStorage.removeItem("br-target")}());

Hello,

Have you added any JavaScript before this stopped working ?

try turning off any new codes you have added and see if it works.

OK I'll try that. Is there a way of turning off java scripts without actually deleting them?

Just turn off JavaScript Management.  There is a yes or no option at the top of the list of JavaScripts.

But that turns off the java scripts. Completel . Not helpful to try and find which of the scripts is at fault for stopping the Post in Progress issue.

Remove all JavaScripts except for this one. Then check to see if it works. If it does work, then add back the other JavaScripts one by one.

Right, I've removed all other javascript and it's still not working.

I have a separate test forum and that's also failed so I'm guessing there's something in my CSS that's causing this.
So...how do I work out what?

Before we go down that path, is there any chance someone can test the "post in progress" script as posted above and see if it still works for them (not that formation have made some global change that's affected it)?

Bump
