• I cannot publish a post because I keep getting a “Connection lost. Saving has been disabled until you’re reconnected. We’re backing up this post in your browser, just in case.” message. I have contacted GoDaddy’s WordPress support and they couldn’t help. Please tell me how to fix this; it is so frustrating!

    Most of the times this error has nothing to do with WordPress. You’ll need to contact your hos and have them look at the server / error logs. Perhaps your website is hitting a memory limit?

    Tara,

    I’m sure it’s not the host because I own one site and manage another, both on WordPress, but only one through GoDaddy. However, both WordPress Dashboards have the same message at the top.

    This is happening on the same computer? Perhaps your network connection is flaky?

    Yes, this is happening on the same computer. How do I check my network? Sorry, I am just learning all of this, but really want to get it working.

    Thanks!

    Is this a laptop? If so, can you walk over to the nearest starbucks or mcdonalds and use their wifi to see if you can connect. If so, then your home network has an issue. If not, then something’s funky with your computer. Try using a different browser (.e.g, if you use chrome, try firefox).

    No, this is my desktop with an ethernet connection. I use Chrome, but have tried Firefox. Same message both times. I will try accessing it from a laptop and see if it is something to do with my computer…

    Well, that worked. I connected another computer to the same network over ethernet and the problem went away. Any suggestions of what I should be looking for on my machine that would be causing this problem?

    Thanks for the suggestions thus far!
