Hello Dear,

Since a month ago, less than more, I am unable to see the previews of the post I generate. When I click on the preview, the 404 error page comes up. I used to be able to see the previews, now I am not.
What can I do to see the previews before I publish the post?
Yours Sincerely,
Victor

It could be a browser issue, can you check?

No, I tried Chrome, Firefox 5 and IE 9. All of them do not allow me to see the preview of a post. Not even the preview button, nor the link on the left side. Everytime I try to see a post without publishing it, the 404 page comes up and I have to publish it to see how it looks.

Did you clear your browser’s cache and cookies?

Yes I do, not only manually, also automatically everytime the browser closes.

As you have a domain mapped to your blog, would you please make sure that you have both first and third-party cookies enabled?

Hello macmanx,
Ok, I enable the third party cookies. Actually at the end with IE9 and Chrome I was able to see the previews but after a short 404 page view, then the correct page. With Firefox 5 I was not able to manage that. Well let me try with the thirdparty cookies anable. But that is a very disturbing way of fixing the problem, leting every single site to set cookies in my pc.
Thank I run the checks and let you know.

Yeah, that’s what I was expecting. The third-party cookie requirement is really a bug in Firefox with how it handles mapped domains, but IE and Chrome should work.

ok, then I will have to activate in firefox the third cookies and the others I can let set them without that option.
Thanks macmanx.

By the way, have you check the other problem I have (from many)? The one that when I upload a picture, one by one, wordpress changes the name and the meta info when it finds a spanish character (Ñ, or acute accents)? I set the spanish as my lenguage of posts and the interface, but still changing the characters to a weird ones. The issue is posted on I don’t know because no body answered, maybe I did not do it public.
And maybe is not your business, you are helping me a lot with all these troubles.
Hey but at least we found a solution for this.

Yep, I’m replying in the Flash upload thread. The language character one was sent privately, so someone else will be responding shortly.
