Cannot Publish Post / Preview Draft Error

    NOTE: This is a multisite installation

    After upgrading to 5.3 today, new posts are getting a “not found” error even after publishing.

    Another side effect is that clicking on Preview within the dashboard gets the “Sorry, you are not allowed to preview drafts.” error. Even though it is published.

    in the link given, you will be taken to a 404 link. You will also notice 3 posts under “recent posts” that exhibit this behavior. They all say not found even though the post is published and the permalinks are correct.

    It would seem this post and other new posts are in a status between draft/not fully published.

    So far this is the only site (out of 100+) exhibiting this behavior, but there could be more.

    I have resaved permalinks. I have a hunch this is due to the database upgrade done at the time of 5.3 installation. is there a way to retrigger for an individual site?

    Appreciate any guidance

    Just a followup – This site was erroneously set to UTC 0 instead of chicago. I fixed it and set it to Chicago, but for some reason dates keep multiplying by 2. I set the publish date to December 2, and it bumps it up to 3, which results in not found.

    Im still trying to isolate it.

    Fixed.

    In my theme (left over from a previous developer) we had this line:

    date_default_timezone_set(‘America/Chicago’);

    And the site in question was accidentally set to UTC 0 which was causing a calamity with the new date/time functions.
