# Getting post cannot be found error

 * When I create at post and try to preview it, it says “Sorry, the page your requested
   could not be found, or no longer exists.” I just had someone create it and I 
   don’t think he knew how to fix it. I have attached a [video](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldHOPxlfm0g)
   of the error. I have a launch next week that this site needs to be up and running.
 * It doesn’t happen with pages just post. I’m not for sure it’s related to the 
   theme or not.
 * Thank you.

 * Try resetting your custom permalinks back to the default setting. If this works,
   then review [Using_Permalinks](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks) before
   setting a custom permalink structure back up again.

 * [@amsamuels](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amsamuels/) would you please
   post how you fixed it? I’m having the same problem, and I’m not seeing specifically
   what to change in the codex. It’s just preview that’s not working for me. Thanks.
