    As of late yesterday the Preview button does not work for my posts. When I schedule a post, and then want to look at it & hit the Preview button, it takes me tot he first page of the site. THis was not happening before, and in fact even earlier in the day worked correctly.

    I checked to see if anyone had already asked about this, and see posts from 3 years ago, but did not see any solution.

    Have you tried:
    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the 2010 theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    When you attempt to preview a post and it shows the first page, does it actually redirect you to the first page (the URL changes), or does the URL still contain ?p=XXX&preview=true

    Can you preview other articles (either already published, or ones that aren’t scheduled for the future?

    Thanks for the help. I was swamped yesterday and couldn’t do anything but delete all the cookies,browser history, etc., which didn’t work. Then just now I was going to try deactivating the pugins, but lo and behold, it is working now. I am pretty sure that it wasn’t anything I did, it just got better. Thanks to all for the suggestions.

    Damian, the only thing I tried to preview were posts, and it didn’t work for any I tried. And what happened is that instead of going to the page of the post, it just went to the first page of the website.

    I am going to hope it jsut stays fixed!@
