Autosave Issue

I have disabled the Autosave feature to prevent WA from saving my work every few seconds just in case I get crazy with the clicks and delete something I should not have and the Autosave saves, ensuring my deletion is gone. However, the issue is even though I have disabled that functionality it still saves my progress every few seconds even though it is supposedly off. I have tried resetting it, logging off and on and different devices but it seems the Autosave still remains on even though I have toggled it off.

Steps to Reproduce

I log into World Anvil > Click Manage Account in the top right > Choose Features > Scroll down and toggle AutoSave functionality.   I then choose an article I am currently working on and type, the green Autosave then begins to flash on the right-hand screen every few moments, saving my work even if I have it toggled off.   No matter the state it remains on.

Hello there :)   First of all, as fair warning, the "Disable Autosave" function will be going away in its entirety very very soon. It's already on the way so what you are probably seeing is an artifact of the features being enabled on the backend.   But, I want to understand something so I can help you. At which part of the website are you when this is happening? Is it the full edit of an article or another location? (You can paste a URL for me here if you wish.
