A planned meeting on Tuesday between President-elect Donald J. Trump and The New York Times that appeared to have fallen through will take place after all, with Mr. Trump and staff members traveling to the paper's offices at midday for a session with reporters, editors and the publisher.

A spokeswoman for Mr. Trump, Hope Hicks, confirmed that Mr. Trump would attend the meeting, after he initially wrote on Twitter early Tuesday morning that the meeting was canceled. The Times released a statement saying:

"Mr. Trump's staff has told us that the president-elect's meeting with The Times is on again. He will meet with our publisher off the record and that session will be followed by an on-the-record meeting with our journalists and editorial columnists.''

In his Twitter post, the president-elect said that he had canceled the gathering because the ground rules had been changed.

A spokeswoman for The Times, Eileen Murphy, responded that the paper had not changed the arrangements for the meeting and was not aware it had been canceled until reading Mr. Trump's Twitter posts.

"We did not change the ground rules at all and made no attempt to,'' she said. "They tried to yesterday — asking for only a private meeting and no on-the-record segment, which we refused to agree to."

She added: "In the end, we concluded with them that we would go back to the original plan of a small off-the-record session and a larger on-the-record session with reporters and columnists."

Around midafternoon on Monday, Ms. Hicks talked to The Times's publisher, Arthur Sulzberger Jr., and said Mr. Trump's schedule had become busy and he would only have time for the off-the-record session, Ms. Murphy said. Mr. Sulzberger said that would not work, and Ms. Hicks told him she would get back to him.

About 20 minutes later, Ms. Murphy said, Ms. Hicks called again to say Mr. Trump would be able to accommodate both the off-the-record and on-the-record parts of the meeting, and the meeting remained scheduled. Then Mr. Trump announced early Tuesday the meeting was off, until it was rescheduled later in the morning.

The Times has been a frequent target of attacks from Mr. Trump, who chafed at some of the unflattering coverage of him during the presidential campaign.
