I don't see an option to show a message and redirect back to a profile page in a saved draft.  Any clues?

Ohhh confirmation. I was looking at the Send Email notification which does offer that. I'm 99% sure that saving a draft doesn't even look at the confirmations or the other actions. It just throws up the "Your draft has been saved." message. So here's what you can do. You can alter the "Saved Draft Message" in the SAVE DRAFTS section of your form's settings->Form Permissions and put javascript code to redirect it to another page (or you can show the message and redirect after a few seconds). If you want to do it conditionally on a field in the form, you can use Javascript to get the value of the field and see whether you want to redirect or not.

When creating your confirmation action, you set the field "Trigger this action when" to "Draft is Saved".

Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?  See screenshot as it shows where I set all of the others.  I thought it was awesome the you could set more than one confirmation .... one to show the message, then one to redirect.
