when i route my website to exclude “works/” in the url, the draft preview sends me to the right link (siteurl/link without works?token=…) but it displays an error page. i don’t have that issue with pages that are not children of _works_.  
here is my routing:

```auto
'routes' => [
        [
            'pattern' => 'works/(:all)',
            'action' => function($uid) {
                go($uid);
            }
        ],
        [
            'pattern' => '(:all)',
            'action' => function($uid) {
                
                $page = page($uid);

                if(!$page) $page = page('works/' . $uid);
                if ($page) {
                  return site()->visit($page);
                }
               $this->next();
            }
        ],
    ],

```

i know this issue has come up before but i was not able to find a solution that worked for me.

The `page()` helper does not fetch drafts, you need to use `kirby()->page($uid)` instead, see [page() | Kirby CMS](https://getkirby.com/docs/reference/templates/helpers/page)
