Sometimes, I’ll accidentally close a tab or accidentally refresh a page with a block of text and then it’s just gone. I would love it if the code was able to hold the text on a page if you navigate away and then back.

Hi @joe.huber, thanks for sharing this idea! Yeah, I can see this issue, it’s quite annoying when you lost the text accidentally.

I checked with our engineers if might be quite some work to keep the text, what do you think about a confirmation modal when navigating away?

That works! Anything that stops me from losing all that text is a massive win. Also, it’s 100% not an issue with inSided and 100% an issue with Joe Huber. “User error”, I think they call it.
