[Resolved] WordPress Archives not showing any content

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to create a custom archive, however it was not showing up even when they tried creating one in views.

Solution:
The main issue here is that the user's theme didn't have an Archive.php file.

What I recommend that you do is to contact the theme author to check on this for you because even with views disabled the archive doesn't even render with any default content.

The archive.php file and its contents are required to display the archives of posts.

Hello,

I've checked on this for you .

What I see here is that your Theme is missing the Archive.php template file to render the archive pages in its default format.

What I recommend that you do is to contact the theme author to check on this for you because even with views disabled the archive doesn't even render with any default content.

Thanks,
Shane
