Survey preview is behaving weird for surveys edited recently

Hello,
I haven't been able to preview my surveys properly either on the projects page or within each of those projects. No survey content is visible on the preview page. Basically, it's a blank page except for buttons like "restart preview", "place a bookmark", "tools" etc:

Under "block options" there are two identical "view block from survey flow" options. From what I can remember, the first one should be "view block":

Second, my selection under the "tools" menu on the preview page will not stay selected between previews. For example, I checked "ignore validation" and then closed the preview page. I immediately clicked "preview" again and it was unchecked again. If I remember correctly, the status of that option doesn't refresh every preview.
Only surveys created over this summer (May-Aug 2020) have those issues, and those issues are recent, because I had no problem previewing those surveys or blocks in those surveys back in August. I have tried using different browsers and different computers. The problems are the same. I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing similar issues? Right now, I can't tell whether it's the platform or my account (institution account) that is causing those issues.
The surveys are my thesis programs and I am hoping to graduate in time. Any thoughts and suggestions are appreciated!
Thank you!

Hi Lauren, I had done so and wasn't able to access any of the ticket forms (e.g. email, chat). The page showed that I was not authorized to fill out those surveys. But I just checked now the bug was fixed and I could submit a ticket.
Many thanks! :)
