Can't Access Post

Hello, I recently added new categories to my site. I added one of my articles to the category. When I try and enter the post, I cannot access it. It will only show its preview. This does not happen to any other post on the site. I tried changing the post to a different category and the post "can't be found" when you try clicking on it. Any idea what's gone wrong?
Hi there,
Any chance you can disable all plugins except GP Premium to eliminate conflicts from other plugins first?
Let me know :)
Hi, I tried removing plugins but it didn't work. When switching to a different theme temporarily, it actually showed the full post.
Can you disable all plugins and custom functions for me to have a look?
The theme itself cannot cause issues like this as the permalinks are all handled by WordPress.
Sorry for the delayed response. I disabled all my plugins, not sure what functions you are referring to. It still doesn't work, unfortunately. I was talking to my web hosting and they took a look and accessed the site. Don't know what the issue is.
Let's wait and see what they say.
They said this
Hello,
The theme you're using, GeneratePress, appears to be using their own code to handle the read more option as switching to a different theme temporarily actually showed the full post. I would recommend reaching out to them for additional insight as they may have already seen this bug, and likely would then have an update they can provide to you.
=========
That doesn't make any sense. I thought we were talking about access the single post here and not about the excerpt length?
It would happen to all the posts if that's the case and we haven't had any other reports on this.
Does the issue exist if you switch to a twenty series theme temporarily?
Ok, yes, I just realized its working now. Maybe it was a plugin after all?
I would think so.
Hard to believe that your hosting support would give you an answer like that though.
Oh really, ok. I didn't know as there was no immediate effect when I uninstalled the plugins. Now I just reinstall one by one?
Yup - although I'm going to guess that the issue won't reappear again
