   After I've changed the default theme, the "older entries" link doesn't show up, only when I read a single article. What's wrong with my index.php ?

   <?php get_header(); ?>
   <div class="contentLayout">
   <div class="sidebar1">
   <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/sidebar1.php'); ?>
   </div>
   <div class="content">
   
   <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   <div class="Post">
    <div class="Post-body">
   <div class="Post-inner">
   <h2 class="PostHeaderIcon-wrapper"> <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
   </h2>
   <img class="metadata-icon" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostDateIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="PostDateIcon"/> <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?><img class="metadata-icon" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostAuthorIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="PostAuthorIcon"/> Author: <a href="#" title="author"><?php the_author() ?></a><?php edit_post_link('Edit', ' | '); ?><div class="PostContent">
   <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry &raquo;'); ?>
   
   </div>
   <?php if (!is_page()): ?>
   <div class="PostMetadataFooter">
   <img class="metadata-icon" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostCategoryIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="PostCategoryIcon"/> Category: <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <img class="metadata-icon" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostTagIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="PostTagIcon"/> <?php the_tags('Tags: ', ', ', ' '); ?> | <img class="metadata-icon" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostCommentsIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="PostCommentsIcon"/> <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?>
   </div>
   <?php endif; ?>
   
   <?php if (is_single() && !is_page()): ?>
   <div class="navigation">
   <div class="alignleft"><?php previous_post_link('&laquo; %link') ?></div>
   <div class="alignright"><?php next_post_link('%link &raquo;') ?></div>
   </div>
   <?php comments_template(); ?>
   <?php endif; ?>
   <?php if (is_page()) edit_post_link('Edit this entry.', '<p>', '</p>'); ?>
   </div>
   
    </div>
   </div>
   
   <?php endwhile; ?>
   <?php else : ?>
   <h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
   <p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
   <?php endif; ?>
   
   </div>
   
   </div>
   <div class="clear-float"></div>
   
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   if the posted code is your index.php, and you want to have links to the 'prev/next posts' on your front page, then you would need to use:

   next_posts_link(); and previous_posts_link();
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/next_posts_link
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/previous_posts_link
   or
   posts_nav_link();
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/posts_nav_link
   in your code.

   if your theme does not have a single.php, then you need to leave this part:
   

   <?php if (is_single() && !is_page()): ?>
   <div class="navigation">
   <div class="alignleft"><?php previous_post_link('&laquo; %link') ?></div>
   <div class="alignright"><?php next_post_link('%link &raquo;') ?></div>
   </div>
   <?php comments_template(); ?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   as it is
   and add some new code directly after it (for the links on the front page); for instance:
   

   <?php if (!is_singular()) : ?>
   <div class="navigation">
   <div class="alignleft"><?php previous_posts_link('&laquo; ') ?></div>
   <div class="alignright"><?php next_posts_link(' &raquo;') ?></div>
   </div>
   <?php endif; ?>

   I have a single.php in the theme, the code showing above are from: index.php

   How should I then correct the code in my index.php?

   make a backup copy of your theme files before editing

   you could change this area:

   <?php if (is_single() && !is_page()): ?>
   <div class="navigation">
   <div class="alignleft"><?php previous_post_link('&laquo; %link') ?></div>
   <div class="alignright"><?php next_post_link('%link &raquo;') ?></div>
   </div>
   <?php comments_template(); ?>
   <?php endif; ?>

   into this:

   <?php if (!is_singular()) : ?>
   <div class="navigation">
   <div class="alignleft"><?php previous_posts_link('&laquo; ') ?></div>
   <div class="alignright"><?php next_posts_link(' &raquo;') ?></div>
   </div>
   <?php endif; ?>

   Ok here is my page.php file

   <?php
   $parentPage_title = get_the_title($post->post_parent);
   $currentPage_title = get_the_title($post->post_nicename);
   get_header();?>

   <div id="floatswrap" class="smallftfl clearfix">

   <div class="container clearfix">

   <h2 class="page-title"><?php if ($parentPage_title == $currentPage_title) { echo $currentPage_title;} else { echo $parentPage_title;?> » <?php echo $currentPage_title; }?></h2>

   <div id="main_col">

   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   <div <?php post_class('page_post');?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   <?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page »</p>');
   wp_link_pages(array('before' => '<p>Pages: ', 'after' => '</p>', 'next_or_number' => 'number')); ?>
   </div><!-- page_post -->
   <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

   </div><!-- main_col -->

   <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

   </div><!-- container -->
   </div><!-- floatswrap-->
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   And here is my index.php file

   <div id="floatswrap" class="smallftfl clearfix">
   <div class="container clearfix">

   <div id="featuredArea" class="clearfix">
   <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/featuredArea/featuredStickyPosts.php'); ?>
   </div>

   <?php if ( is_sidebar_active('frontpage_seperator_widget_area') ) : dynamic_sidebar('frontpage_seperator_widget_area'); endif; ?>

   <div id="main_col">

   <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/posts/indexPostColumns.php'); ?>
   <?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
   </div><!-- main_col -->

   <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

   </div><!-- container -->
   </div><!-- floatswrap-->
   <?php get_footer(); ?>
