James Davidson Banner said: Because there is a limitation on time to type in "Stories" on the "Memories" page before the story is lost, my suggestion is that the type of automatic uploading that is unsed by Google in their Google Docs and other extensions on the Google Drive by applied to stories. In other words, as the patron is typing their stories, they are automatically being uploaded (saved) without their having to click a "Save" button. This would eliminate the frustration experiened by those who do not know that their story will be lost unless they click a "Save" button on a regular and timely manner.

    Any automated upload can cause problems.

    The correct order for your dilemma is to create the story in a text editor on your computer, save it, then open the memory (story) and give it a title, then copy and paste text from the editor into the story' s body.
