HELP! I Need Somebody…

Great song! Not at all what this post is actually about but still, great song. I’ll keep this short(er) and sweet(ish). Ok bloggers and bloggets (oh wow, that sounded funnier in my head), I need some advice. I’ve been on a pretty good roll so far with staying on schedule. I start a new draft probably once a week, work on others a couple of times a week, and try to finish/schedule one for a future date at least once every two weeks. But this last week or so I’ve been incredibly annoyed. I’m writing on my laptop, phone, and tablet, if you do this as well you can probably see where I’m going here, THEY DON’T SYNC! Seriously!? This is my first blog experience so I know that part of this is obviously just the fact that I am inexperienced. But it has happened a couple of times so far (more so lately that I’ve been writing from different locations) that I have tried to start a blog on one platform and by the time that I post it I have edited it on all three of my devices. Each device holds a different version of that post. I’m having a hard time remembering which device holds the latest version of what, and sometimes I’m not able to have access to all of them at the same time. Has anyone else run into this issue? Am I doing something wrong? I’m considering just erasing the apps and solely using my laptop. I don’t really want to turn this into a bitch session but I really am curious if this is an issue that others have had, or are continuing to have, and how you guys have dealt with it. Again, any/all advice is much appreciated, thank you in advance.

Until next time, I’ve had an off week and still gave you guys 3 posts! Rant aside, I guess I really am enjoying this more than I originally thought. Keep writing blog buddies. The ruts only last for a moment.

P.S. Speaking of great songs and needing advise, this picture is for all of the fellas out there with ladies to impress, it’s easy to do, just follow these steps. Drew and his brother invited me out to our bar one night for a Halloween party. I started to decline because I didn’t have a costume, they responded with “don’t worry, we got you”. This was the result.

    Have you tried using a different platform for writing before posting? Google docs for instance? You can access it on all different devices, edit, and it automatically saves. Then just copy and paste into WordPress when you are happy with the post and schedule it to upload? I’ve noticed WordPress is glitching out on my posts lately, it’s very frustrating.

    1. I’ve used Google doc in the past and I liked it. Maybe I’ll give it a go

      I’ve just started using it for other things in life, and it’s so easy to use on my phone and laptop and they always have the right information, and you can work on it offline and it will sync up again once it’s back online. It’s great.

    3. Thanks, I’ve used Google docs for other things, mostly collaborations, but I could definitely see how it could help with this.

    I use multiple devices and am new to this as well… I make sure to click update or save, and then I exit out of the draft. That seems to keep it current on all devices. All of my devices connect to the same wifi for at least part of the day. Sometimes when I am using two devices at the same time (for various reasons) it takes a few minutes for each device to catch up. Hope this helps!?!

    1. That definitely helps, I’ve been just closing the app without pressing update, might have something to do with it.

    I don’t use anything but laptop but I will go to phone to view an image before I publish sometimes and yes… Just after that last update or whatever the mobile app is differing. It is probably something like a bug they need to fix

    1. Thanks, I was wondering if I was the only one haha. Maybe it’s the app, I guess I’ll give it some time and see what happens.
