 * I try to write my posts a few days ahead of time, but I still want to see what
   they will look like when they go live. The older version of WordPress featured
   a post preview at the bottom of the write post page, but 2.3 has a “preview” 
   link.
 * When I click the link, I get a message telling me no posts meet my search critera.
   Is this because I am scheduling my posts, or is there another problem going on?
   How can I get a post preview?

 * Problem solved!
 * My site is linked to a subdomain, but hosted in a specific folder. When I upgraded
   to WP 2.1, I had problems with this setup – namely telling WP where my files 
   were located. It crashed unless I told it both the folder ([http://randomstring.host.net/blog](http://randomstring.host.net/blog))
   and where people accessed my site ([http://mysite.mydomain.com](http://mysite.mydomain.com)).
 * When I upgraded to WP 2.3 (and later to 2.5), this caused problems. The “Preview”
   link took me to a site like [http://mysite.mydomain.com/?…preview=true](http://mysite.mydomain.com/?…preview=true).
   Since WP thought my blog was at a different address, though, I could never see
   my posts.
 * Changing everything to JUST reference [http://mysite.mydomain.com](http://mysite.mydomain.com)
   fixed the problem. Now, I can preview posts. I can also view my page when I’m
   logged in and it’s under Maintenance Mode.
