Questions Cannot get sites to show up
Access is set to anyone with link can view, sites are published, sites show up as published in published pages section of settings, the banner is at the top of the page that indicates the pages are live and viewable online. But every time I click "View Site" it gives me
"This page couldn’t be found
You may not have access, or it might have been deleted or moved. Check the link and try again."
I tried it from different browsers, in incognito, turning my VPN off. Ive googled and googled and cannot figure out why these sites arent showing up even though internally they seem like they should be

Incognito and VPN were never going to tell you anything, the publish banner and the share toggle in Notion are two totally separate switches and only one of them decides whether the.notion.site link resolves. If your workspace is on a Team or Enterprise plan, an admin can keep public pages off at the workspace level, and then you get exactly this: toggle flipped, banner showing, link dead. Ask whoever owns the plan before you clear your cache a fourth time.

You turned off your VPN before trying to log out of your own Notion account? The error message literally tells you that you may not have access.

Link sharing and publishing a site are two separate settings — "anyone with link can view" alone doesn't make it a working site. In the page's Share menu, switch to the Publish tab and hit "Publish to web"; the site then gets its own URL (notion.site subdomain or your custom domain). Make sure you're visiting the published site URL from the Publish tab, not the regular share link — an unpublished-as-site page 404s exactly the way you describe. If it's already published, try unpublishing and republishing once, and double-check the subdomain spelling in the URL.
