# Autosave may lead to data loss

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create new article.
2. Enter text
3. Save
4. Wait for autosave interval (WPCOM = 2 min, WPORG default = 60 sec.)

Expected:

> Article content preserved

Actual:

> Article content erased.

Workaround:

> add the following line to wp-config.php [86,400 = number of seconds in one day]:

> `define( 'AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 86400 );`

Workaround not available for WPCOM sites.
