Hi there,
Thank you for getting in touch with us.
Please go to Settings section and make sure “WordPress address” and “Site address” are the same.
Kind regards
i know where settings is, but i clicked every sub cat under it and could not find where you are talking about.
Can you please tell me what topic under settings I can find this?
This is under Settings → General tab. Please see this screenshot: http://prntscr.com/krgvth
Please note that this may not display if you have multisite WordPress installation.
If you cannot find it please activate default WordPress theme temporarily and see if there is a post preview.
You can also navigate to Settings → Permalinks and click “Save Changes” button to make sure this is not permalink issue.
Best
They are the same links. anything else i can try?
Hi KellySeeks.
You can try to reset permalinks and see if that helps. It is a quite simple procedure, here’s the short tutorial – https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/wordpress/wordpress-features/reset-permalinks
Also, do you have some security plugin installed, maybe it interferes with the preview functionality?
Kind regards.
Hi,
I’d like to add that I am experiencing the same problem on a site I made. “WordPress address” and “Site address” are the same, I reset the permalinks and still – 404 error. Also my .htaccess file contains the following, as described in other posts about this problem:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
But all that doesn’t help…
Note: The 404 error only is displayed when calling previews – regular links to posts and pages work as expected.
Hi @dogel,
Please first deactivate all your plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate all plugins one by one to see which one cause that issue.
If that doesn’t help please temporarily activate default WordPress theme like Twenty Seventeen and see if you are stil having that issue.
Your .htaccess file seems to be standard file with normal rules.
Cheers
