# Post preview in admin. Bug?

 * Using 2.0-RC1
    If I go admin > Manage > Posts and pick one post from the displayed
   list, it opens the post for edit but in the Preview window there is always a 
   Page, actually the Archive Page of the theme. Even if the theme doesn’t have 
   an archives template (like Classic) it will try to display a Page titled Archives
   in the preview area. Same thing happens if clicking the “Edit this” while viewing
   the blog. It does NOT happen if I open for edit my or others’ drafts. Pages also
   show up correctly in the preview.
 * Is this a bug or just me?

 * I’m not seeing that. Published posts and drafts preview the same for me using
   the ‘standard’ Classic theme.

 * This just happened to me. Was fine before but now, for some reason i get the 
   same thing.

 * I’m getting the same problem. I go to manage posts and it automatically jumps
   to preview. It only seems to happen when I’m using a custom theme (not admin 
   theme) that I’ve been working on.
