   I have just installed PageLime on an existing client page, and as far as I can tell I did everything properly.

   I can get into the CMS, see the editable areas, make the changes I want, and when I click "Publish", it does the "LOADING" thing, refreshes, and the changes are not there. When I load the page in the browser, again, the changes are not there.

   I know that something is happening, however, because when I look in the ftp I can see that, YES, the page was re-saved. So the permissions must be set, the ftp info is correct, and the page is being saved...just WITHOUT the changes.

   I have no idea what I'm doing wrong - this happens with 99% pages I have created.

   I have another page - the 1% - where I created it to have repeatable regions. I CAN make changes that stick, with this page.

   I CAN make changes by choosing to edit the code, however.

   Well, I figured it out. Here is what I was doing, so no one else does it:

   - my site has a rotating theme (every time the page refreshes there are new images, hyperlink colours, and heading colours)
   - these different styles are defined in my CSS document as different div ID's
   - I am using a php rand() function to select one of the styles
   - I was assuming that the ID I could use for the cms-editable could be one of these rotating styles...not so!

   It appears that PageLime needs to have the div ID stay the same. Although it must be unique to the page, it must remain the same for the changes to be saved.

   So to recap, the id of the element you are using the "cms-editable" class in MUST not change on page refreshes.

   i am having the exact same problem. I am trying to edit a newsletter on my companies website. When i upload the new newsletter (uploaded as a pdf) everything appears to be saved so i publish it and then bring up the website, click on the newsletter link and the old newsletter keeps coming up. I go back into PageLime check it again and the new newsletter link is still there but just not on the actual website. You mentioned that the div ID need to stay the same. How do I do that? I am really new to updating websites so I really need all the help I can get. Thanks
