Are you hitting save draft?
Yes. Saving my drafts works fine.
Does this happen when you’re using the default Twenty Ten theme?
Alright. I played around with it, and here’s what I found:
when I remove the following caption from the middle of my draft, Preview works fine:
[caption id="attachment_9754" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="Bill O'Reilly threatens a frightened guest"]
The moment I put it back in again, the entire body of my draft doesn’t display in Preview.
I have a few pics with captions in my draft. Preview only works after I remove this particular caption. Removing any of the other captions instead doesn’t help.
But when I leave the caption in but remove the bottom 575 words of my draft, then Preview works as well.
Summing up, Preview works when I either (a) remove this particular caption, OR (b) remove the bottom 575 words of my draft.
I finally published my draft, and it came out blank as well.
The problem is caused by some—but strangely not all—pictures with captions UNLESS I include a blank line between picture code and text.
So, for instance, this caused a missing body in Preview as well as upon publication:
[caption id="attachment_10000" align="alignright" width="300" caption="The Bigger Clown"]<a href="http://blog.cyberquill.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/lod.png"><img src="http://blog.cyberquill.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/lod-300x204.png" alt="Lawrence O'Donnell" title="Lawrence O'Donnell" width="300" height="204" class="size-medium wp-image-10000" /></a>[/caption] In one of MSNBC's customary O'Reilly-bashing segments the night before the...
As soon as I inserted a blank line after the closing [/caption]
, the body displayed fine:
[caption id="attachment_10000" align="alignright" width="300" caption="The Bigger Clown"]<a href="http://blog.cyberquill.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/lod.png"><img src="http://blog.cyberquill.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/lod-300x204.png" alt="Lawrence O'Donnell" title="Lawrence O'Donnell" width="300" height="204" class="size-medium wp-image-10000" /></a>[/caption]

Why this only happens with some but not all captioned pictures is beyond me.
