1. The post is in the database 🙂
2. This is a theme specific question. What theme? Do you have a single.php file in the theme?
Link?
I should of course have mentioned this, its just the frustration taking over.. 😀
I use the “Fleur”-theme, and the loop is in the “index.php”…
I didn’t ask where the Loop is. I asked: do you have a single.php template file in your theme?
If yes – make sure you have the_content in it.
If no – you have two options.
a) create one (e.g. by saving the index as single.php and edit)
b) use a conditional tag in the index
Wuhuu!! =)=) Thanks man! 😉 I’m so very very happy right now.. 🙂 It worked when I created a “single.php”, as you said! But then rises a few other questions…
1) Are the .php-files (e.g. index.php, single.php) universal, independent of the theme you are using? In other words, is there a defined set of .php-files to be used, regardless of theme?
2) Now I have two almost identical .php-files (the index.php and the single.php), is that the way it “should be”..? The main difference is that the “index.php” uses the the_excerpt-string, and the “single.php” uses the the_content-string. They both have the famous loop.. I guess this is the way it should be, because the index.php defines the template for the main page (which should display the excerpt), and the single.php defines the template for single posts (which should display the whole post). Am I right at all…? =)
1. There is a set of template files that WP recognizes if they are present in a theme and uses them accordingly.

2. It is the way it should be 🙂

1) Yes.
2) Yes, that’s completely normal. Single.php gets used for the single post pages, if it exists. index.php is sort of the “fallback” when a more specific template is not available.

Thank you both for the help, the links you gave me were very appreciated reading! 😉
