JotHut editing tips

Microblog posts created by typing in the small window on the home page cannot be edited.

Blog posts (long form posts) can be edited.

If you need to edit a blog post, click the "EDIT" link at the top or bottom of the page when viewing the post.

To edit with the "enhanced" view, then
click the small "split" link, which is located near the lower right hand
corner of the text area box.

- clicking the split link puts you into a better editing/writing area.
this enhanced writing area autosaves every 5 minutes if new content has
been added.

- within the enhanced writing area, you can either write and preview in
split screen mode or:
-- click the right-facing arrows in the navigation bar to switch to single
screen mode. This provides a larger writing screen.
-- now when you click "preview," the formatted page will also be shown in
single screen mode.
-- to change from previewing in single screen mode back to writing in
single screen mode, click the right-facing arrows again.

- to get back to split screen mode, click the left-facing arrows. click
the arrows to play around. nothing can be harmed.

- to save when you want, obviously, click "save."

ONE FLAW that I have not fixed yet in the enhanced writing area: when my
editing consists of nothing but cutting and pasting, the save and autosave
do not work because no keys were pressed to add content.

So to ensure all changes will be saved, hit the space bar once, (and if
you want, you can delete the space) and then click "save."

When moving away from the enhanced writing area, you will get a pop-up
message, asking if you want to leave the page. Click "confirm" or whatever
the answer is to leave the page.

This confirmation pop-up will appear even after you have saved the content.

This confirmation exists because over the years, I've experienced times
where I accidentally moved away from a page that I was adding content to,
and when I quickly moved back, all my content was gone and not saved. So I
added this pop-up to my new app as a safety feature.
