Details

The current message that shows up when autosave data is available is “ExpressionEngine has saved data from this entry before it was last saved.  Saved data is removed when an entry is saved or re-saved.”

I believe that this should be changed to read “since it was last saved.” rather than “before it was last saved.”

You may want to consider rewriting this message a bit as well, as it’s confusing to end users.  Perhaps the last sentence should read “This data will be erased the next time the entry is saved.”

Yes. I totally agree with Dennis.
The message does not make any sense at all.

———————————————————————————————————————————
ExpressionEngine has saved data from this entry since it was last saved.
Saved data is removed when an entry is saved or re-saved.
Would you like to load this data now?

Yes | No
