    It seems that giveaway drafts are not persistent and not saved anywhere to edit later on.

    It doesn’t show up in the posts list nor does it look like a post in the preview.

    I’ve just been testing it for about 45 minutes now and a few things I would expect appear to be missing.

    It didn’t show up anywhere after I published a test. Preview works with the draft tho & as I’m sure you realize it needs css style adjustments
    The giveaway/post heading doesn’t show in the preview and the entire test giveaway disappeared once published.
    Perhaps it’s incompatible with my theme or a plug-in I have installed.
    I like the base concept but ….
    Thanks.

    Did you try number 6 from the faq?: “If giveaways do not appear when clicking the view link, or paths appear broken, the permalink pattern might be stuck – choosing a different permalink setting, and then switching back to the original setting should fix.”

    thks for the quick response …. I checked my permalinks but I didn’t change and switch back.

    But exactly what will I see that’s missing now?

    Will I see stored drafts? Will the missing post title appear? Will the published giveaway show up in the list of posts or anywhere?

    What should I see?

    I had already decided to delete the plug-in, however if all of that exists I’ll reinstall and take a second look after changing my permalinks back and forth.

    thks

    Yes, you will see drafts, and titles will appear. You will also be able to see a full listing of giveaways in the “All Giveaways” admin nav menu.
