Have you tried:
– deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
– switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
– re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress?
– increasing the available memory?

Hi Esmi, Thank you for your recommendations. I tried each of them in turn and nothing brings back the Save Draft button.
When I got to your last suggestion, here is what I did. I tried activating the plug-in on the post you linked to. I then de-activated all other plug-ins and did an automatic re-install of 3.0. That didn’t work so I also tried adding an .htaccess file with the command line suggested. (I put the .htaccess file in my main http folder.)
I’m still at a loss. Do you have any other recommendations?
Thanks for your help.

if I publish and edit a post, I can’t save the draft because the Save Draft button is missing
Hang on… You’ve already published these posts?
Hmmmm, yes. I suppose it’s mostly the pages I’m worried about. They’re behaving the same way and I’d like to be able to make edits on the pages and save them before updating them live on the website. I used to be able to do that on both posts and pages before…
Based on your previous post I’m thinking that’s a no-no now?
@jenniferavaughn:
Did you figure out how to resolve this? I am having the same issue with my “Save Draft” button as it is no longer there for existing pages when I am trying to make edits. I can only save and publish.
Thank you,
I’m having the same issue. Thought I was loosing my mind when I couldn’t find the “save” button the Codex kept referring to.
@jpchevrier: Please post a new topic.
