Auto Draft Status

Auto-Draft is a post status in WordPress. This status helps WordPress to automatically save your post while you are editing it. In fact, it helps WordPress save posts before you even start writing. As soon as you click “Add new post”, WordPress will save a copy of your post every 60 seconds. The latest copy of your auto-drafts will appear in the Revisions area.
