            Note, this bug and the functionality described relating to 'Recently worked on' only applied in 6.0 or later with collaborative editing enabled.
            The existing Drafts page found under the user icon in the top right of the screen will eventually go away.
            All 'drafts' (never published) and 'unpublished changes' (page with unpublished edits by you) will show in your 'recently worked on' tab of the Dashboard.
            briankrohn, it sounds like there may be an issue with your instance. So long as you actually enter text into the draft, or when editing a published change then it should appear in 'Recently worked on'.
            If for some reason this is not working in your instance then I suggest contacting support

            Neither Drafts nor Unpublished changes work on my 6.4.3 instance.  If I edit a page, let it auto-save as a draft, go to Recently Worked On, it doesn't show as either.

            Drafts != Unpublished Changes

            • I think the Drafts view text is misleading when it reads: "When you edit a page but don't publish the changes, a draft is created."

                         Should it not read:   "When you create a new page, but don't publish it (the changes), a draft is created."

                         It is only new pages never published that are considered 'Drafts'. (or that is what I am discovering in our testing)

            If you edit an existing page, and Close/Keep Draft - it does not show in drafts, but does show as "Unpublished Changes" in the "Recently worked on" view. Which is good! 

            • Could the Drafts view be modified to include "Drafts" AND "Unpublished Changes"?
