 * Yes same issue. Error: You do not have permission to preview drafts.
    Also the
   thumbnail fields aren’t working when I put in a url to add a new field for thumbnail(
   url of the image ) it does not work I get no image ( this is a preview image 
   for my article that shows up on my main page.)
 * SonnyM – I think its a bug that needs to be fixed in this update – I hope I find
   something on this.

 * FWI – IE 6 and older has issues with URLs that don’t start www :/ It ticks me
   off on any given sunday.

 * You do not have permission to preview drafts.
 * This all I get when I try to use the preview button now. This is with 2.7. Any
   ideas? Seems like month/weeks, and no one answers support questions here?
