 I am running the 2012 theme on 4.8. with a few basic plugins.

 I am also experiencing the problem described in this closed ticket:
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/37889

 In testing I disabled all plugins, and when I try to "Add new" under
 pages, I get a fresh empty page, and on the right it confirms the status
 is "draft" with "0" revisions and a "Publish" button for my finished work.

 I give the new page a test title and some fake content and "Publish" it.
 Immediately the "Publish Info" box shows 20 revisions and a publish date
 of a week earlier. I am now editing my previous post/page.

 Just trying to publish the new page overwrites the content fields in my
 previous page so the whole article is lost unless I restore from the
 revisions list at the bottom of the new page I just created.

 Regardless of which page I try to edit, the last page gets overwritten.

 I have a stock standard .htaccess file.
