Here is a greasemonkey script that links to different versions of the page preview. I find this invaluable when debugging problems (so i don’t have to hunt through the url to change a parameter…). Right now it only allows for debug/preview, change in item filter (preview/public), and sys_context (301) but should be easy enough to change as needed. These three options show up on the bottom of the page as a series of links and clicking on them links to the preview page with a particular parameter changed…
NOTE:
You must change the [site] and [port] values on the top of the script in order for this to work on your particular rx instance.
