 * I would link to the page, but it’s no longer there…
 * I was working on updating a post with the revision manager plugin and all seemed
   to be well. When I went to post it, it posted fine at first, but I noticed that
   I had the settings wrong and it was showing it as posted in 2013 and updated 
   today.
    So, I went to change the date and the post completely disappeared. It
   said invalid post type- and poof- it’s completely gone! I can now not find it
   anywhere- it’s not listed as a draft- nothing. Gone completely! I’ve never had
   anything like this happen before- and I worked all day on it so I’m freaking 
   out!

 * Hello!
 * Once you publish revision, it will merge itself with the original post.
    You 
   can find a tutorial in the description of plugin.
 * You may not find a difference in behaviour, because you propably updated post
   as an administrator, which means you accepted changes.
 * This is not an error.
    If you don’t want to accept changes yet, you can save 
   revision as a draft.
 * Hope you are doing well!
    Best regards 🙂

 * I understand that, but that’s not what happened. (That’s what normally happens.)
   
   In my case, both the new revision and the old one completely vanished.
 * In the end, I was able to get a version of the old post through a backup- and
   then had to spend the next hours rewriting the whole revision again.
 * Now, I copy and paste the whole post elsewhere before publishing, just in case.
