Frontpage will not show content and blocks with an OpenPublish theme only.
Which ever page I set as frontpage looses content and blocks.
The page "looses" its node reference.

I think the reason is in drupal v.6, but can it be fixed?

Converting 6.x themes to 7.x

10.Content region is now mandatory, main page content became a block
Content region is now mandatory, main page content became a block
(issue) In Drupal 6 and before the $content variable in page.tpl.php contained the main page content appended with the blocks positioned into the content region (if you had that region defined).
In Drupal 7, $content became a full region and is now mandatory in all themes. This new requirement was set up so that when enabling new themes, Drupal knows where to put the main page content by default.

Let me know if you are still having problems with this. I was a little unclear what was going on here.

Title: Frontpage problem with an OpenPublish theme only » Frontpage problem with OpenPublish

As I see it, I am unable to assign a single page or article as the default home page. As robust as the OpenPublish theme is, I am unable to have the option of displaying a single page or article as the default home page.

Am I missing something?

Is it possible for OpenPublish to have a single page or article as a homepage?

You can have whatever you like on your front page. Out-of-the-box there are some views and specific homepage regions that are used to populate content on your homepage. If go into your page.tpl.php file, I think it's line 47, the section under the condtional drupal_is_front_page(), you can change that to suit your needs or alternatively you can create a separate template file just for your front page: page-front.tpl.php.

Any fix on this yet? I have used OP for almost a year then suddenly blocks, views and contents in page do not appear in any page designated as front page.
