# Preview button needs ‘fixing’.

 * I’m in need of assistance from fellow wordpress coders. A week ago I bought a
   theme that required me to set my front page to a static page called ‘blog’ where
   all my blog posts would show up. In order to browse the posts on my website the
   regular reader would have to go from [http://keepinspiring.me](http://keepinspiring.me)
   to [http://keepinspiring.me/blog/](http://keepinspiring.me/blog/)
 * The thing is that only the browsing of posts has changed and my permalinks remain
   the same. The homepage redirects to the /blog/ page to make it easier for a reader
   to browse through posts. This, however, creates a problem for me when I try to
   preview a post. I’m not able to preview a post because each time I try to preview
   the post it redirects to /blog/?=previewname .
 * I’m wondering if there’s any way around this and/or to change my URL for the ‘
   preview’ button. Perhaps there’s some code I can put in my htaccess that will
   stop previews from redirecting?
 * Any sort of help would be appreciated.
