 When you add a new post in WordPress and don't fill in anything then press
 publish, you get a success message saying "Post Published!" I believe this
 is because of the auto-draft feature in WordPress which pre populates the
 title field with "Auto Draft" so it is not empty.

 However the post status is still draft (Even though it does not appear in
 the drafts list in the administration area) and it does not appear on the
 front end of the website.
