Press This Bookmarklet doesn't work in Flock
I am angry! I have been using the Wordpress "Press This" bookmarklet to make quick posts to my blog. However, when I used it just now in Flock to write a post that was not necessarily long, but it was involved, and I tried to save the post as a draft to my Wordpress blog, the draft posted with only the title. All of the text that I wrote was lost. The bookmarklet works fine in Firefox. I just tested it. I'd appreciate knowing if this is something that can be fixed.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hi,
When you saved the post as a draft, was it properly saved at that point? Did the draft contain the entire post, and not just the title?
We just tried on our side, and publishing a saved draft for which we have used the "Press This" bookmarklet, works just fine in Flock.
Hence, please:
1) log out of your WordPress account
2) clear all your WordPress cookies
3) download our latest version Flock 2.5.5 from www.flock.com, and install it.
4) log back in to your WordPress account
5) write a post using WordPress' blog editor, and the "Press This" bookmarklet
6) save it as a draft
7) verify that it's properly saved -- if it's not, please contact WordPress for this issue instead.
8) publish it
9) verify that the post was properly published with all its content.
Thanks,

hi there,
followed your instructions but still can't get Press This to pull in the content - it will publish to my blog tho if I add some text.

Inappropriate?why bother with Press This anyway? I just had a closer look Flocks Web Clipboard - if you clip something by selecting and using contextual menu you can choose what to with it (view , email, blog, delete) - reckon this is tastier than Press This!
I’m happy
