Entry content not appearing on page

    I am trying to convert my MT-powered site to one using WordPress, along with the current template/style of my site.
    All I am doing is copying & pasting the codes from the default template, and it’s not inserting the post content. I’m not sure what I’ve done wrong, but it’s driving me slightly nuts. I have a copy of the template here in plain text format.
    Thanks for any help!

    Unless you have altered your css, some of the tags in <div id=”pageContent”> do not exist in WP.
    Therefore, nothing will appear.
    Can you not start with the WP index.php and work from that ?

    I did start with the WP index.php and subsituted what I needed to in the other template. “pageContent” doesn’t appear in the WP index.php because it’s being called from another CSS page that controls the design of the other template I posted earlier.
    I was under the assumption that WP’s system itself managed the content and the CSS layout pages managed the design, because in that case, the content, despite the CSS differences, is still not coming up.

    Looks like you’re missing the ending tags for the WP engine:
    <?php } } else { // end foreach, end if any posts ?>
    Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.
    <?php } ?>
    This should go right after line 96 on your index.php, which reads:
    <?php include(ABSPATH . ‘wp-comments.php’); ?>
    and BEFORE the </div>.
