Unable to Preview post

[Unio-Mentium]

I have been unable to preview any post I write since yesterday afternoon.

Hello, U???-M???. May I ask what error/message you receive when you try to preview the post? Does your browser timeout, do you get an error message, etc.?

It just says "Fetching preview..." for ever. I waited for 10 minutes once.

Aye, happens to me as well, since a month now. I'd like to know the fix for this as well, since I've had to edit my posts much more for typos than usual.

I have been getting this for a while now too. I haven't thought much about it. Not sure about an entire fix, but I have been doing the following lately.

Usually I refresh the page after about a minute of waiting for the preview and then immediately click preview, even if the page is still not fully loaded. After that, the page loads with the preview which I am able to see. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't; refresh the page if it doesn't the first time. (I actually had to use this method just now to preview this post.)

You can also try clearing your browser's cache and cookies, but that may not show any difference.

Hopefully trying that quick method (not really a "fix") will help you both be able to preview your posts. Hopefully someone knows of an actual fix to this issue.

I also have this problem, but it only seems to happen when I write a bigger post, it can handle single line posts fine, but thats about it. It has kinda forced me to not use the HTML codes because I might mess up the post and its never fun to edit your post over and over.

Alpha, your idea worked! Gotta be quick on the click though :p

Haha, I usually use that method to see my previews. Indeed, you do have to be pretty quick. Glad it worked for you!
