Quick suggestion:

I just signed up and made my first post. I wanted to go over it and make sure all the markup looks good and generally give it another once over.

However, I wasn't able to preview it, and it does not show up under "My Posts" at all.

I know my post is under moderation, but I think it might be good to still give the users access at all times to their posts for the reasons above.

Hey @abalter! Great suggestion! We actually don't develop this forum's underlying software --- it is created by the good folks at [discourse](https://www.discourse.org/) - perhaps you could file a request there for them? Thanks!
