Greetings,

Does Vbulletin supporter a drafts feature? One of the great features I loved about phpbb is that I can save a thread/post as a draft before submitting it.

Maybe I'm the only one who is slightly picky about how my wording and phrasing is in posts, but this would be a great feature to add in if possible.

Thanks,
KMS

vBulletin version 4.1.4 has an autosave feature that prevents content from being lost, but we currently have version 4.1.2.

There are multiple ways to achieve the effects of a draft system without vBulletin explicitly supporting it, though.
1. While typing a post, click "Preview." It will cache it until you close your browser, and you can finish it later.
2. Type it up in a message with the recipient being yourself, and you'll effectively send the message to yourself so you can finish it later.
3. Type it up on your computer in a word document or something and copy/paste it when ready to post.
4. Etc.

Mythonian,

Thanks, believe it or not though, I am smart enough to figure out how to live without it by myself. ;)

Thanks for clarifying if this version of vBulleting had it though. Much obliged.
