Posts page not showing Blog

Something is showing up for me. That is interesting. I had a link to here:

Thanks for checking, Josiah
What if you go here — https://artsgeorgia.net/wp/blog-2/ — do you see anything?
This where the main blog page with multiple posts should be showing.

What if you go here and click the blog link? https://artsgeorgia.net/wp/

When you do a static page like that and then a blog page, sometimes there is an options in the page editor on the right side under page attributes that says template. Make sure Blog is selected there.

I just wanted to make sure you knew that the emerald stretch theme has not been updated in 2 years, which means it may not work as well with the current wordpress setup.

The Emerald Stretch theme doesn’t have a native blog template but I found one that is supposedly “generic” and added it. That doesn’t work either, can be seen here — https://artsgeorgia.net/wp/posts. The complete blog.php is pasted below.

<?php
/*
Template Name: Blog
*/

// Which page of the blog are we on?
$paged = get_query_var(‘paged’);
query_posts(‘cat=-0&paged=’.$paged);

// make posts print only the first part with a link to rest of the post.
global $more;
$more = 0;

//load index to show blog
load_template(TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/index.php’);

?>

Used to Display Posts Shortcode to create my Blog roll!

So you have it working?

Well, I faked a solution by creating a page called “Blog” and dropping the Display Posts Shortcode app. To make every post show up I created a category called “.” and applied that to every post. Also made a Blog Page Template in order to use a custom Sidebar.
