Autosave & Preview bugs

See original GitHub issue

Recently focus was moved to the content by default:

https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/8525

Unfortunately, this means that the new -> edit transition is never triggered. This in turn means autosave is never triggered. This means your post is not saved unless you press the keyboard shortcut, as there is no save button.

Also (this should possibly be a separate bug, but the case may never happen if the first issue is fixed), if you try to get a preview link, it will always be http://localhost:2368/ghost/ for unsaved posts. Which is very confusing.

No, this is a direct result of #8525, autosave is no longer working until you trigger it by pressing the keyboard shortcut.

I am going to close this bug issue now, because it was a direct result of #8525. The revert PR for #8525 was created, see https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost-Admin/pull/755.
