 * Hello,
 * Thank you for this great plugin.
 * I have a question though: Is there a way to auto save draft while editing for
   front end logged in users please?
 * CUrrently if something happened, like power shut down, page refreshed, the whole
   content will be gone, which is really not a good experience when one is writing
   a long article live on the frontend.
 * Thank you
    Leon

 * Hi Leon,
 * There is no auto-save for drafts, but the plugin does set cookies for the browser
   to remember in case of disruption, etc. So if there is a crash or whatever, any
   values the user has filled in should be remembered when the page is revisited.

 * Hi Jeff,
 * Since I’m using it on a user profiles website and I have different users logging
   in to the frontend. I can’t seem to retain any filled in information after page
   refreshed.
 * That being said, do you think if there is any tweak or custom code that may auto
   save draft with USP. Feels like this is quite important.
 * Thanks
    Leon

 * Yeah it might be something that a developer could put together. It’s just not
   something the plugin can do out of the box. Would require some work but with 
   WP anything is possible.
