Hi @urbanspaceman There have been a number of posts on this topic, one by myself as well [Preference Center Not Working](https://forum.mautic.org/t/preference-center-not-working/19524).

I did some testing with different versions of Mautic and found that this ‘seems’ to be a bug in certain versions, check out this [post](https://forum.mautic.org/t/how-to-make-preference-center-adjustments/19533/4) and I tried in 3.3.3 and was able to get things working.

That is indeed frustrating. Have you defined the preference center inside the email you are sending out ? (I think you said you did this already).

Are you checking in a different browser to where you are logged into your Mautic instance ?

I would also suggest checking out the mautic.error file to see if you are getting any indication on what is going wrong there

I ran into the same issue, but could solve the problem by changing the settings.

Configuration → E-Mail Settings → Unsubscribe Settings.  
Since my mautic installation is using German Language, I’m not sure if I correctly translated the menu items. Therefore I attach the screenshot:

 ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/mautic/original/2X/7/76277478a2e8e7649b336ab11bf1e4153b561f7d.png)

This setting was set to “Nein” (NO/OFF), after switchting to “Ja” (YES/ON), the configured email preference page worked.

Hint: I configured the Segment List on the landing/preference page, but the list wasn’t visible till I activated the setting “Einstellungen für die Segmente anzeigen” (Show Segments Settings).

I’m sorry for the German terms, unfortunatley I don’t know the used english translation, but I think it’s clear what I meant.

Hi,  
Quick question: did you try to change language settings for the Email/Preference center?
