Hi Deborah,

Just tested with CMS Builder 3.03 and preview works as expected. 

When creating a new record, before clicking Save, I can click Preview to see the results.

Also, when editing an existing record, I can Preview changes before saving.

Can you test with CMS Builder 3.03 and let me know if you are getting the correct results?

Damon, Are you saying that versions prior to 3.03 should be able to see edits to the preview?

I don't have a 3.03 install yet, and see that 3.04 is available. I'll try 3.04 very soon, but for now want to know if the older versions should act in the same manner. (Trying to assist a client at the moment who has 3.02.)

Hi again,

Yes, I tested in CMS Builder 2.65 and Preview works as expected.

Can you check that for single section editors (ex. About) you are using this code in the load records:

'where'       => '', // load first record

And for multi-section editors (ex. News) can you check that you are using this code in the load records:

'where'       => whereRecordNumberInUrl(0),

If you are and Preview is still not working, can you send in a Support Request so we can take a closer look:

Hi Deborah,

We recently moved to a new server and are having some issue with email forms. If you have sent in a Support Request, could you resend the details (CMS Builder login, FTP) to me directly at support@interactivetools.com.

Thanks!
