Is there a way we can save posts as draft just like on a WordPress Site. If not how can we prevent the current post from being viewed. Say to finish a how to guide later on.
Thanks,

no, sorry, we dont have such a feature... might be something we could think about for the future...

Damn that sucks, maybe you could move this to the feature request forum. It's hard to write how to's and manuals without being able to save as draft. Look forward to this in the future.

What I do if I want a large how-to or article in the forum is create a blog post. When done and I publish I have the Simple:Press blog linking plug create a full forum post from it. Doing it that way I can save as a draft on the blog side while working on it.
Then I set the comment blog linking however I want the comments to show up, both places, forum only, etc. If I don't want the blog post and the forum post I can break the blog link in the forum and delete the blog post. Most times what I do if I would rather highlight the forum post is not have anything in the blog side pointing to the blog article. That way only bots or someone who knows the actual blog post url would find it.

As I said we will consider it for future release - but most likely a
plugin... could be a bit messy and strain on database, but maybe
alleviated a bit with a permission...

That's actually not a bad idea, I can create the post there, save it a draft and when done I can copy paste onto the Forum.

if you copy and paste instead of using blog linking then one piece of advice....
If you use the blog post tinymce editor to introduce any html formatting then when you are ready to copy, use the html button on the editor toolbar to display the formatted html and copy that. Then on the new forum post, open the html popup in the same away and paste into that. This will preserve all the html tags correctly.
