Post Revision Reverts Published Post

    For the second time, my installation has reverted a post from the published version to a previous draft version without my having done anything that would cause this to happen.

    I wrote a post and saved it a number of times in Draft form. Then I published the final version. Several hours later the post reverted from published form to an earlier Draft version. I didn’t touch a thing.

    Luckily, I could revert to the published version since it was saved in the revision list. I was able to republish the version I wanted.

    But I have no idea whether this is caused by a plugin conflict, a server or database error, or some other bug.

    The only related thing I can connect this to is that last night I did a purge of all revisions, which eliminated a great deal of data. COuld this have impacted the next post I published in some way?

    Hello,

    Have you tried the revisions link and checking if the one being published is the correct version of the post?

    Or, is there someone else working on the post that is still actively editing the post?

    To work around the problem, click on the Revisions link and restore the correct revision and publish it.

    But do check if there is another instance of editing the post in a browser somewhere that is still open, hence the system is not publishing.

    Hope this helps.
