 * I have a strange problem where some posts will open in single.php and some will
   simply show the index.php again.
 * I’m mildly (yet not 100%) sure that they all worked earlier.
 * If I go into the admin and do preview post it will already either go to index.
   php or single.php. Same posts always work and don’t work so it’s (thankfully)
   not a random thing.
 * Anyone had this before? And solved it? Any help would be greatly appreciated 
   as I have no clue what’s causing this.

 * I’ve seen this in the past and usually this is because of the titles.
    If the
   slug of your posts has weird characters, these might be causing issues. Or it
   could be that you have multiple posts that are called the same thing.
 * Can you provide links to posts that don’t open at all, but should, and share 
   the url?

 * Hi Christine,
 * Thanks for your swift reply and sorry for my late reply.
 * Here are a couple of posts that won’t open:
 * [http://www.yoursource.nl/support/](http://www.yoursource.nl/support/)
    [http://www.yoursource.nl/rapportage/](http://www.yoursource.nl/rapportage/)
 * And here a couple that do:
 * [http://www.yoursource.nl/product-update-exact-software/](http://www.yoursource.nl/product-update-exact-software/)
   
   [http://www.yoursource.nl/crmin1day-te-bussum/](http://www.yoursource.nl/crmin1day-te-bussum/)
 * Quite a hard thing to Google for too! Seems like it’s not a common problem. Normally
   my Google-Fu is sufficient 🙂
 * Thank you so much for your time!
