My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

I created a new skin as described here: http://manual.b2evolution.net/Create_a_new_skin

Everything worked fine except my blog posts do not appear. The posts show in other skins, just not the new one. I'm not sure what to do...

Hi cosmos,

Welcome to the forums.
I can't help you unless you allow me a sneak preview of your skin. Please add a link to your blog and I will answer your question.

Good luck

Hi cosmos,

For whatever reason the PHP file is broken. Can you post the source of the skin (link to a zipfile would do) and I'll have a look.

Good luck

Here's the code. I copied the PHP sections from the doc explaining how to make a new skin.

Was an answer ever found for this problem...I am having the same issue.

@cosmos,

Do you still require assistance with your skin?

@ swaitela,

I sent you a PM

8 Sep 26, 2008 20:01

No but thanks. I finally solved the problem. I modified the 'basic' skin to create my own skin instead of using the 'custom' skin. This skin shows my posts. I then just modified the format to match that of my site. I'm finally satisfied. Take a look: http://www.jobgoround.com/blog/index.php.
