Essentially index.php was removed from the setup. The ‘Front Page’ in ‘Settings > Reading’ was set to the ‘Home’ page, which in turn used the template_home.php template, and the Posts page was blank. Then, the ‘Blog’ page used template_blog.php as its template.

Sorry about that, to clarify, I created template_home.php and template_blog.php myself. Then, I created a page for home and a page for blog, each calling their respective template. Within home, I would run query_posts as needed.

Does that make sense? Is that an inappropriate setup?

Hm, before the actual blog template was actually controlling that. So essentially you’re saying what needs to happen is for me to restructure index.php within my theme folder to match what used to be template_blog.php?

Again, effusive thanks for your help troubleshooting this.

That is correct, it just obliterates any sort of layout and style that had ever been established.

Nope. And to be clear, the posts show like so when I set the posts page to the blog. It’s just layout chaos.

No home.php for me.

1. Perfect
2. When “Posts Page” is set to “—Select—” like this, only the actual page displays. When “Posts Page” is set to the correct template, my template falls completely out of the proper structure and layout.

Hey Michael, but a static page should display at root.com, while the blog should display using the blog template at root.com/subfolder

Am I misunderstanding something? I didn’t change anything between 2.9 and 3.0

I do Michael, and the closest thing I’ve gotten is updating “Posts Page” to my “Blog Template,” but it borks the layout and structure pretty badly when I do that.

Good to hear I’m not the only one with the issue, livresoft.

Just renamed and regenerated .htaccess—no luck.

Thanks so much for your help, Michael.

Exactly.

That’s correct, Michael. I switched over to the Twenty Ten and Default themes after disabling all plugins, and I was still seeing only the first page instead of posts.

More details: disabling all plugins and reverting to the default theme does not fix the issue, either. So I’m guessing it’s some sort of config issue. Have reset .htaccess to no avail.

And a bump, if no one minds ??
