 * When making a new page up and I want to preview the page all I get is Generating
   Preview and that is all I get. How can I fix this as I don’t really want to reinstall
   WordPress on my site. Any help will be appreciated?

 * Hi. This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins,
   and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable
   them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.
 * If you can install plugins, install and activate “Health Check”: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/).
   It will add some additional features under Tools > Site Health, as well as a “
   Troubleshooting Mode” menu on the top bar.
 * Under Tools > Site Health > Troubleshooting, you can Enable Troubleshooting Mode.
   This will disable all plugins, switch to a standard WordPress theme (if available),
   allow you to turn your plugins on and off and switch between themes, **without
   affecting normal visitors to your site**. This allows you to test for various
   compatibility issues.
 * There’s a more detailed description about how to use the Health Check plugin 
   and its Troubleshooting Mode at [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/).

 * I know my theme coding has gone wrong and I have got the theme people that I 
   brought it from working on the coding. Would this effect wordpress from saving
   or generating a preview?

 * I think yes, it’s possible that problems in the theme, or plugins, would affect
   previews.

 * Royal Themes told me that it is a plugin problem. Now I am getting a 404 error
   message and can’t login to my account at all but that is down to my hosting provider
   to fix so I can’t even do the staging site at the moment.
