I'm new to Wordpress but have figured out most of the things I've needed to in order to get going. I really like the Montezuma theme but there is one thing I just can't get working right:

When I try to make a Page (what is commonly used as an author page, I believe) the page always display completely blank. Even when I view it or preview it from the Page editing screen, it comes up blank. If switch my theme off of Montezuma the pages I've created display properly, but when the theme is set to Montezume they're always blank.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot,

What do you mean by "When I try to make a page"?

From the Wordpress Dashboard I select "Pages" from near the top of the left side-bar, and then select "Add New." After entering text in the title and text boxes I press the "Preview" button and it loads the page, which is completely blank. If I press the "Publish" button the page is published and an icon for it appears on the top of my blog's main page, but when I click the icon it takes me to a completely blank page.

I forgot to mention this, but the problem originally occurred when using Montezuma 1.1.3. I just upgraded to 1.1.4 in hopes that the issue would go away but it is the same.

I also should have mentioned that I have tried this using Opera, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari with the same result. As I mentioned in the original post, changing to a different theme results in Pages loading properly.

Thanks for your help,

I'm so new to WP I have only used it for pages (never for a post) and I have never had this problem. Did you try changing your permalinks settings?

I have tried changing the permalink style. I forget what the default was but I changed it to use the date & title format, but it didn't make a difference. The URL did change, but the blank page has persisted. I'm not sure what other permalink settings I can adjust.

Thanks for the response.

Did you try firebugging and/or view-sourcing the page? Even if it's blank, there may be some code there that might tell you something.

Are you using any plugins? Did you try disabling them and retesting your pages?

Can you post a sample url?
