The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.As far as I can tell, the preview does not work when creating new content.
It shows the page, but all fields remain blank, while they populate as content is entered on edit pages.

cedricl commentedAlso noticed this issue after updating form 2.1.3 to 2.1.4. I downgraded for now, but might be a good thing to look at changes made from 2.1.3 to 2.1.4.
Comment #4
iancawthorne commentedYes, I can confirm that is the case for me too. Works on create pages on 2.1.3, but not on 2.1.4.
Comment #5
atul_ghate commentedI can also confirmed the same,I will work on this issue.
Comment #7
atul_ghate commentedThe issue was due to the wrong order of parameters being passed to the samePagePreviewRenderPreview JavaScript function. In version 2.1.3, the code used: $response->addCommand(new InvokeCommand(NULL, 'samePagePreviewRenderPreview', [$entity->uuid()]));
However, in version 2.1.4, an additional NULL parameter was added: $response->addCommand(new InvokeCommand(NULL, 'samePagePreviewRenderPreview', [NULL, $entity->uuid()]));
This caused the JavaScript function to receive NULL for the UUID, resulting in it not working correctly. By correcting the order of the parameters, the issue was resolved. i have aslo confirmed that view mode is working as well.
Comment #8
iancawthorne commentedI can confirm the patch at #6 resolves the issue for me.
Comment #9
atul_ghate commentedComment #10
dishakatariya commentedHi, I have verified this issue with the #6 patch applied successfully on D11 version.
Testing Steps:
1. Goto your local D11 version.
2. Install the module.
3. Go to the admoin/content
4. Add content and check Preview only works when editing content, not creating.
Test Results:
Now the preview works during creating the node as well.
Attached the Before and After Screenshots as well.
Hence moving to RTBC

atul_ghate commentedHi @cosmicdreams ,
Thanks for merging the MR.
I noticed that I wasn't credited for resolving this issue. Could you let me know if there's something I might have missed?

cosmicdreams commentedI don't think you did anything wrong. Much of what governs this system is automated. From what I can see you have been credited
Comment #17
atul_ghate commentedYes, now I have been credited. Thank you, @cosmicdreams
Comment #19
jonloh commentedLooks like it's not working again on Drupal 10.3.6 with new content, as shown in the screencast here.
Only works well when I edit content.
Comment #20
jonloh commentedReverting the code from patch #6 seems to resolve the issue for Drupal 10.3.6.
It looks like we may need to create a separate version specifically for Drupal 10 to ensure compatibility.
Comment #21
yevko commentedThis change is not being pulled when the last version of the module is installed.
Comment #22
yevko commentedConfirming the https://www.drupal.org/project/same_page_preview/issues/3462436#comment-... for 11.1.3!
