Thank you so much for this! I moved about 100+ pages to posts, but thesis still showed all the original pages in the nav drop down menu.

I followed this exactly and it worked great.

Hi Jonathan, It has to do with the custom query you make and it depends on if you are using get_posts, or query_posts. More info can be found here:

Hope this helps.

I've been having trouble figuring out how to control how many full posts - or posts with the "more" tag - show up on the front page. I think I'd like more than two - but in any case I'd like to control it - and am having trouble finding it in the user's manual. Any thoughts, suggestions?

I've been writing stuff down on paper. Duh, I didn't think to open another tab and leave it open. Some times the simpliest solution evades me. Thanks again.

Great tip! I have struggled with the teaser error for two hours until I find this tip. Now, teaser display option finally works on my blog.

Thanks!

I wish I came across your way of retaining preferences before I did the DB "cleaning". Had a slightly different error and went through all the logical steps such as you described. It took deleting those rows to fix things up. However, I had to renter all my options since I ain't too bright.

I've run into a similar issue a few times, all while adding Thesis to brand new sites.

Apparently, the stuff that installs Thesis for you after activating the theme wasn't completing successfully, although no errors were reported. The "thesis options" page showed unchecked options and empty boxes, and the "design options" displayed an error about an empty array being passed to the teasers options function. The only thing that had changed on the wp_options table was the "current_theme," which was now set to "Thesis."

The fix in this case was to delete that row from wp_options, then visit the "thesis options" page and hit save. This makes all the default entries for thesis into the table. At this point both option screens behave as expected.
