Safari 17.0 preview problems

    Ever since updating to Safari 17.0, I’m unable to preview a post in desktop view new tab. WordPress displays my basic blog elements, but with the following error message in the post body:

    ‘Oops! That page can’t be found. It looks like nothing was found at this location.’

    Tablet and mobile view new tab previews are displayed without problems.

    In Safari, third-party cookies are not blocked, and content blockers is deselected.

    Other browsers — Chrome, Firefox, Edge — on my iMac running Sonoma Version 14.0 do not have the desktop new tab preview problem.

    Not sure if this is related, but Safari has always taken longer to build and display my blog than other browsers, whether I’m previewing a post or visiting my blog from an external link.

    iMac Pro
    3.2 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon W
    32 GB 2666 MHz DDR4
    macOS Sonoma 14.0

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Thank you for providing so much information to accompany the issue you are having. Please try opening a preview in a new tab using a private browser window. If you are able to preview the post as expected, then the issue is likely related to browser issues which you can solve following these steps:

    @lthanlon just updating you – we’ve seen a handful of other cases where Preview doesn’t work, but for those folks it’s happening regardless of the browser.

    Would you be willing to share the URLs you’re getting for previews in the working browsers, as well as the one you see in Safari?
