Archive Page not showing content [Theme Lightword]

    I recently upgraded to WP 2.8 and now my archives page only shows the text “Do not edit this page.” I’ve upgraded MANY TIMES over the past 2 years and feel like I had this problem 1 time VERY EARLY but can’t quite remember what to do. I thought there was a setting on the page. For some reason I recall choosing something from a drop-down menu somewhere, but maybe I’m just nuts.

    Can anyone tell me why my archives page has stopped working and how I can get it working properly again? I used both Google and WP search and found no topics about this particular issue. Please feel free to simply point me to them if I overlooked them.

    Thanks.

    Ok. I’ll check that out. I think I still have a backup.

    My theme does not have an archives page. I am slowly learning to make my own to add to it.

    To start off, I created a page called archives.php and gave it a template name. Once I did that, my archives page then had a template drop-down box and I was able to select it. From there, all I need to do is add the code I want to the archives.php page.

    I found the information here: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Creating_an_Archive_Index

    Thanks for all the help.

    I’m finding this out in April 2010 – that Lightword STILL has no archive page. I love the theme overall, especially w/my tweaks, but no archives? Seems a little weak to me.
