Make Draft of Post?

If we are working on a project, is there a way to make a draft of a post besides putting it in a word or google doc?

Like a post that only I can see, but can edit, and eventually post publicly?

You can use the Test Post sub forum right at the bottom, it's private and can only be seen by you to test out the structure of your posts.

oh, thanks!

The staff here can see the posts too of course :D

But unfortunately, a dedicated 'publish' button is still lacking.. It has been requested in the past; but sadly didn't get an answer back then:

@LoGiCalDrm did make a good point though, suggesting to report a post to get it to be transferred to another topic; I'm just not sure if the staff here would appreciate it + I don't know how that would work with the much used 'Recent Topics'  bar.

Yeah, that just wouldn't work. I could cook up a test post from for example the 21st of March, and it wouldn't appear as a new post if it was moved to another sub forum.

staff can actually move it for you, but the problem with that is that it'll show up as the date you created, so no side bar attention

Just copy the text from your test post and paste it into the new topic you create.

That's what I did.

Images get copied too.

This is the best way to move something from Test Posts to an appropriate subforum.

Quote or tag me( @Crunchy Dragon) if you want me to see your reply

If a post solved your problem/answered your question, please consider marking it as "solved"
