Why my posts did not show in the homepage? about mediumfox

[chrisRidgers]

Victory fish.

Following advice found here I modified my paginate_path within _config.yml from "posts/:num" to "blog/posts/:num".

I'm not sure why this worked (or if it will for you), however comments on the link seem to indicate an awareness of some undocumented change within either Jekyll or Octopress. I guess the answer here is to report it to the devs of both just in case.

@sevenadrian in the mean time you may want to consider including this in the readme (unless you have a better idea) in case someone runs into the same issue in the future.

Can confirm, I'm playing around with octopress and have the same issue with a fresh install of this theme.

I've copied a _posts directory from another project with the same theme and all posts show up within all posts. Other project is fine (but hasn't been updated in a while).

[chrisRidgers]

I've just tried another fresh install of octopress and medium fox. Problem continues.

As an update, if you run rake install (to reinstall the default theme) the problem persists. However the initial clean install of Octopress displayed posts correctly.

[chrisRidgers]

Another update. Problem appears to lie within the paginator.posts variable in source/index.html.

I tried inserting a bog standard

tag within the loop to test if it was at least looping but there was no output. Inserting the tag prior to the loop worked as expected.

I've also run git diff against the working fresh install of octopress and the project after installing the medium fox theme, but I haven't spotted anything obvious. I can post the output if you like although I'm not sure where would be the best place to do so?

[chrisRidgers]

Although the code itself is near identical to my working older version; perhaps there is a problem/ change within the Octopress/ Jekyll release?

@chrisRidgers, awesome work. This was exactly the fix I was looking for.

[alexeyza]

Thanks @chrisRidgers, I've had the same issue and couldn't find the fix myself (your suggestion fixed it for me).

@chrisRidgers Thanks for tracking this down so that I didn't have to

@chrisRidgers, The fix works, you saved my life, thanks a ton

[Zettt]

Can confirm the behavior, and the fix. Thanks, everyone! @sevenadrian, please fix or close the issue.

The change didn't work for me, but I enforced posts by changing
{% for post in paginator.posts %} in {% for post in site.posts %} in index.html.

changing:
{% for post in paginator.posts %} to {% for post in site.posts %} in index.html worked for me. Thanks

@chrisRidgers it works for me Fantageek, too. So MediumFox must have modified the config :|
