    I have been working on a draft post for 2 weeks now and am having an issue with the post not saving. When I click “Save” it keep flashing “Saving” and never stops flashing and never saves. I have left it like that all night and it never saves. This is not the first draft post I have had this issue with. It’s very frustrating because I have to keep reentering what doesn’t get saved to the draft.

    Also, I’m having issues with the blocks. My heading blocks aren’t saving in the right format and the arrows to move the blocks up and down are grayed out and inaccessible.

    Hi, Christi, in regards to the draft saving, try accessing your developer tools within the web browser to diagnose the issue:

    Instructions (thanks to user: bfintal)

    For Chrome:
​
​1. Right anywhere on the page, then select “Inspect” or “Inspect Element” to bring up the browser’s developer tools.
​2. Navigate to the “Network” tab of the developer tools
​3. Click on “XHR” in order to view only ajax calls
​
​You should end up with something that looks like this: https://cloudup.com/ctrVfdDqNh7
​
​Once you’re there, save your page, then check last of the newly added entries in the network tab. Check the “Headers” tab of the new entry and you should see “/wp-json/…” in the “Request URL” to indicate that it’s a rest API call. Check the “Response” tab.

    Feel free to paste the results of that response in a reply in this support topic.
