Save Posting As A Draft

I see the "drafts" tab when logged into my CL account, but can't figure out how the silly feature works. I've tried starting a posting and then logging out and back in to see if it saves automatically (it doesn't), and I've tried actually doing all the steps to create a posting, thinking there'd be an option at the end (there isn't). I'm sure it's something simple.

If you have an account on Craigslist you should be able to save a draft. Once you enter the information on the main screen and click continue, you should be at the "Upload Images" screen.

This is the point where Craigslist automatically saves your post as a draft, you do not need to click on anything for this. As, you should be able to completely leave Craigslist and come back to finish your draft when ready to do so. You will be brought right back to where you left off in the draft once you click on it.

For more information you may go to Craigslist Account help section here However, there is not much on saving a draft.

Please Note: You must have a Craigslist Account for any draft to be saved.

Hope this helps
