    I am having trouble displaying posts on a second page in the 2011 theme.
    I copied the index.php code exactly and created a new template with it.
    I then created a new blank page and pointed it to the above template but the posts will not display. Im not sure what else i need to do. Any help would be greatly apreciated.

    A fresh download of the 2011 theme and re-installation/upload the new 2011 theme may work on this matter.

    I removed and reinstalled the theme but still no good. This is the code i have used for the template:

    [code moderated - please use the pastebin]

    I must be doing something wrong~? The message 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria' is not displayed which means it knows theres posts but i cant get them to show up?

    a:
    make sure to work with a child theme of Twenty Eleven http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes;
    don't edit the default theme Twenty Eleven directly.

    you might need to add a query before the post to tell the template what to display;

    example:
    <?php query_posts('cat=0&paged='.get_query_var('paged')); ?>
