Hey @dan, I made a new project to start creating some templates that I can bring into elements once you added that feature. After my 2nd “template” the preview suddenly stopped working. Clicking the preview button or hitting `cmd+p` does not open Safari anymore. Can send you the link to the project via pm if you need. ---

Doesn’t sound like a project issue… it sounds like [Elements](https://elementsapp.io/) can’t find the browser. Can you make sure a browser is selected in the settings: ![CleanShot 2025-05-06 at 10 .21.16@2x](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/6/3/63374bd8cddde9ecf702669f2b428d6b81f3acee.jpeg) I also think it might be worth restarting your Mac to see if that fixes the issue for you! ---

Done that already and Safari is selected. Preview worked when I was working on the first templates, but suddenly stopped working. ---

And you’ve tried restarting [Elements](https://elementsapp.io/) and your Mac? Maybe do share your project with us so we can check it’s working here. ---

Yes, I‘ve done all that. I was able to copy and paste all of my templates/containers to a new project. Preview works now again. ---

Glad to hear you’re back up and running. Can you send us the old broken project so we can test and add in a fix if needed? ---

Perfect, thanks, we’ll dig in and take a look 👍 ---

Aa-ha! I’ve just taken a look at it seems like you don’t have a Home Page set on that project, as soon as I set the page as the “Home Page” preview works. See the video below… This is obviously a bit of a bug, so we’ll get this edge case taken care of 😊 ---

Riiight. That makes sense. I copied the project over from another one, just to create templates and I sure did remove the (not needed) homepage from this one. Thanks for checking! ---

No problem, glad you caught the issue as the project should still preview even without a home page! We’ll get it fixed up for a future build 😊
