Description
I have a content type called wiki. I create an outline with multiple pages, turn on the outline navigtion block, but it does not show up. If I create an outline using one of the Drupal default pages (page or story) the navigation block shows up. In my first example, if I add a page or story to the outline, the navigation then shows up, but does not include the wiki pages.
I know this sounds weird, but I triple-checked it.

Have you tried creating child pages yet?
I was pretty worried about this bug, since I use a bunch of custom content types. I too didn't see the block ... until I created a child page. Then it popped right up.
Hope that works for you.

Thank you PRFB for following up on this issue.
It is related to this useability issue: http://drupal.org/node/159587
Drupal blocks never show up if their content is empty, so if there is no child page (only 1 single page in the outline) then it won't show up.
@terry: can you confirm this was your problem?

Btw, I do use outline.module with plenty of custom content types, and I don't have any problem.
