Static home page not showing 3.1

@eugen

I tried in 2 different setups with 3 different themes and I cannot reproduce. As far as I know, there is no bug report for this.

Do you still have the problem?

Thanks for you answer Demetris!

I couldn’t find any solution for this, so I had to reinstall WordPress. It works fine now on 3.0.2.

Thank you!

Eugen

I have exactly the same problem. I’m using the Finnish 3.1beta.

Hi guys, I know you’ve reverted back to 3.0.2, but it’d be great to narrow down the cause here.

1) Does it work when using Twenty Ten? How about with Twenty Ten and no other plugins? (If so, what theme/plugins?)

2) What are your settings on Settings > Reading exactly?

3) Go to wp-admin/options.php. What are the values for page_for_posts, page_on_front, and show_on_front?

Thanks,
Nacin

1) I’m using Thesis but it doesn’t work with twenty ten either and I have disabled all plugins.
2)All other settings are default but page for frontpage is selected. (The settings are same as with 3.0.2)
3)page_for_posts = 0, page_on_front = 7, show_on_front = page

Hi,

I was using only Twenty Ten, but had these plugins installed:

Automatic WordPress Backup
Contact Form 7
Contact Form 7 Modules: Hidden Fields

I don’t remember if I disabled them, as I tried one million of things to make it work.

Hope this works.

Im using a child theme for Twenty Ten and I also got this same problem.

Going to be downgrading back to WordPress 3.0.2

I have the same issue with 3.0.3

I cannot reproduce this with 3.0.x or 3.1

Disable all your plugins for starters and if you’re NOT using 3.1, post in a new thread in another subforum ?? This is for 3.1 folks only.

Thanks, I just did:

Hi Nacin,

I have a similar issue, noticed it before and running into it again.. Working with 3.1-beta2-17056
I have page called ‘Home’ its ID is 59, i’d like to use a page template for home..

1) Does it work when using Twenty Ten? plugins disabled..
> Nope, doesn’t work with 2010, not even after disabling all plugins.

2) What are your settings on Settings > Reading exactly?
> Front page displays: A static page (Home)
Posts page: -select-

3) Go to wp-admin/options.php. What are the values for page_for_posts, page_on_front, and show_on_front?

> page_for_posts: 0
page_on_front: 59
show_on_front: page

What’s teh filename of the page template? Like is it home.php or …?

it’s called 01_homepage.php
I’ve tried homepage.php and home.php but that didn’t work.

The wp3 custom menu doens’t add a proper active class to home either, it would do that before..

Hi there –

I think I’m having the same issue with WP 3.1-beta2

However the lack of static front page issue only seems to occur when using a custom permalink such as /%category%/%postname%/

Reading settings:
A static page (select below)
Front page: Homepage
Posts page: Blogpage

homepage template name ‘myfrontpage’ and file name ‘myfrontpage.php’

wp-admin/options.php
page_for_posts 11
page_on_front 128
show_on_front page

Going now to try the theme on a 3.0.3 wordpress install

Cheers
Stef

I have been following the thread since it started and I have not been able to reproduce yet (I even tried with %category% in the permalink structure, as tictok describes above.)

@taeke, @tictok, if I may ask a question:

What are the locations of your frontpage template files?
