this is a reply to my original thread (http://forums.oscommerce.com/topic/362514-sts-content-not-showing/), but as requested by the starter of this topic, I am moving the discussion in here! :)
Currently using osC MS2 (including some patches applied manually)
I uploaded all the new files from the MS2 folder, and made the changes to the existing files manually.
I kept the entire folder structure intact and used all the default STS and osC folder names.
After installing STS, I first tried the default settings with one of the sample templates; right from the start I have not seen any $content being displayed, other than what I posted in my previous thread.
If no $content would show up altogether, I would expect I had done something wrong editing the files, but since some content does show (albeit nothing usable), I suspect something else has gone wrong.
I also tried using the debugging function of STS, but couldn't detect anything strange. No errors/exceptions/warnings are thrown...
As I mentioned before, everything is working as expected, it's just that all pages are empty since the $content variable does not contain the expected code.
Any suggestion is welcome... :)
