 * When I try and click “preview changes” after I edit and “update” a page. I get
   the following error:
 * You do not have permission to preview drafts.

 * Have you cleared your cache and restarted your browser? Maybe tried a different
   browser? Have you changed anything else lately?

 * I remember making a change in the “Discussion Settings” section. What i was trying
   to do is to not allow people to comment on posts. I know it’s not related but
   is right around where the problem occurred. Thanks.
 * Issue also occurred when trying it on another browser. [http://www.gp-financial.com/?preview=true&preview_id=18&preview_nonce=b4a7fc8c97](http://www.gp-financial.com/?preview=true&preview_id=18&preview_nonce=b4a7fc8c97)

 * The resolutions I could find online seem to point to a difference in the format
   of the WordPress address as opposed to the site address. Check these out, maybe?
