Strange Theme Behavior

Permalink
Hi All,

I'm definitely new to c5 so any help would be greatly appreciated. I installed a custom theme on my site and it all looks good, except there are some strange things going on. I get the feeling that all these things are related to the same issue.

1) The forums module 'start new discussion' button has disappeared, so you can't add a new thread.

2) The 'discussion post' page type is now blank

3) The 'user profile' and 'send private message' pages are now blank

When I switch back to a standard theme for these pages, the content loads fine, so I'm trying to work out what I missed with my theme??

I have attached a screenshot of the example with the forum page, but it applies to any page type or single page where there is content outside an editable region.

Sounds like an error in the html or the css is causing the problem. Is this a public url we can access?

Within the view.php of the theme files it should include the following line somewhere....

<?php print $innerContent; ?>


Concrete5 requires this to display content like the 404/405/login pages etc within your custom theme and if I remember correctly the discussion forum requires this to :'(

Let me know the outcome :)
Good luck,
Chris
