Question

When I try to Edit a topic, I do not get the Preview button, though I do get the others (Save, Quiet Save, Save and Continue, and Cancel). Any ideas how I can get the Preview button to appear (and work)?

NB. I'm using the the default skin.

NB. Doing Alt + P doesn't work either, though using the Alt button works for the other actions.

FYI - I've just installed the latest version of TWiki (4.2) on the intranet, and seem to have it up and running okay. I have not customized the twiki yet apart from running the configure and correcting all the errors (only have 1 warning for the ScriptUrlPath which I've set to /twiki/bin instead of //twiki/bin since //twiki/bin doesn't work correctly as it makes the links become http://twiki/bin/... instead of http://myhost.com:1024/twiki/bin). The only other thing I've done is to create my own Twiki user (which I've also made an admin user).

Environment

Server OS: Solaris 5.8

Thanks very much for the prompt answer. I hope when the new version comes out it will make it clear whether the Preview button has been enabled again (so I know if it's worth upgrading!).

You're welcome for the answer. Unfortunately actually fixing the button is beyond me though smile I'm setting the status to 'answered' anyway.
