# Catch 22…

 * My post titles to point to things external rather than displaying the permalink
   page. A title would look something like…
 * `<http://www.google.ca>This is the post title</a>`
 * Everything works the way it should with one exception.
 * I discovered today that if I save a draft version of an article, I can’t retrieve
   it! In the Write Post and Manage Posts views there’s a link to “Your drafts”,
   but clicking on it takes me to the external site — not to the draft post.
 * How to I get to my draft?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * hehe, that’s funny stuff. There’s so many things to think about when writing 
   an application… poor devs.
 * You can use this link to edit your post if you know the post #
    yoursite.com/
   wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=157
 * You just have to replace the &post= with that draft’s post number. You can find
   this out in two ways. 1 by using phpAdmin to look in your database. 2. You can
   guess the number. Get the post ID for an entry you did just before or after that
   one and then adjust the number in the link accordingly.
 * This is definitely a bug. Can you report it at mosquito.wordpress.org? Just click‘
   report issue’ and cut and paste your entry from above. Thanks!

 * Yeah, I have to admit I had the same thought. The developers try to think of 
   everything and then along comes something out of left field.
 * I appreciate your help and I’ll log it at mosquito.wordpress.org.
