 * 1) Fill out form
    2) Click “Preview” button 3) Click “Edit listing” button
 * All fields except “Description” are cleared, forcing user to fill out the fields
   again. Some kind of cookie issue?

 * OK, yeah, varnish is stripping out cookie. Will fix.

 * Actually, it wasn’t the varnish cache server at all. It turns out to be the theme.
   When I switch themes, it works. I’m not a WordPress developer but I know php.
   Any idea how I might go about ensuring the theme is compatible with this plugin?
   The theme was developed for an older version of WordPress.

 * Hmm, I’m not even sure how or why a theme would be erasing that data, so I don’t
   know what to say here. 🙁 Frankly, if your theme is pretty old to begin with,
   I might start looking for a new one that’s actively maintained.
 * Or, if you can still get in touch with the theme author, you might ask them if
   they have any ideas as to why that data might be getting lost.
 * Sorry I can’t be of more help here! 🙁
