  Have you installed any plugins recently? This can break things. Try disabling/enabling them and checking the post.

  Psst, @mikecdnify and @pyllon, just wanted to nip this line of thinking in the bud. There are no plugins to install on wordpress.com.

  I found this thread with a potential solution in it, @pyllon. Let me know if this fits.

  I have had this happen occasionally, it usually corrects itself on a refresh. I have put this down to a timing issue with WordPress caching, for me it is only a minor issue. BTW I am using Coraline so it’s probably not theme related.

  I’ll raise this for staff attention, they would probably want to log it as a known issue at least.

  Thanks for your responses guys. It’s appreciated. I tried another machine on a different connection etc and it started working.

  Not sure why it wouldn’t work on any other browser having cleared caches etc though?

  Cheers.
