Blogs disappear?
I'm not sure if it's the length, or if it's number of edits, or what... For some reason after publishing a blog and then editing it, all text will disappear. I don't understand it, but I would like to modify my santapede blog to include this link and text at the end on this page https://www.hyundaiaftermarket.org/f...etition-entry/ .

I disassembled the motor mechanism more then 10 times to get things just right. It took around-about 40 hours to figure out the perfect configuration and get the bends just right. Also, about 30 hours to write the software which drives Santa. It was a learning experience since I am not a web designer. Even with the difficulties, it was a fun project.
However, when I click publish now, or preview, it disappears. I don't understand.

Definitely not the length. I think it has to do with the number of edits. Not sure. I dont see any settings that have to do with it, but I'll keep an eye on it. Let me know if you continue to have the problems. I went in and edited your blog for you to include the new info.

This is an ongoing issue. It has happened several times. I usually end up deleting the entry and starting anew. This time, however, I've linked the page a couple of places on the Hackaday website and rather then invalidate the link, I chose to bring up the issue. It is a big problem.e

Has this problem been fixed yet? Im apprehensive to post on a blog which I cant edit. I havnt posted an entry in the last 6 months because of that.

So I've been looking into this issue, and I cant replicate it. I was able to edit every single one of my blogs with no problems. They dont disappear or anything. There are not Blog settings that disallow number of edits or anything near that would cause this problem. Do me a favor...create a test entry, and then make multiple edits using different browsers. If I can pinpoint it to what may be causing the problem, then a fix can be created. But since I'm unable to replicate it...there isnt much I can do unfortunately.

I made several edits to my blogs during my contest, as I tried to maximize the search engine presence. Even 90 days later, after 10+ edits I've not seen any disappear.
