[opencms-dev] Newbie problem with OpenCMS - New Content Disapears

Tue Feb 16 17:47:35 CET 2016

Hi Lorenz!

Yes - /sites/default/grid-demo/.content/texts/t_00019.xml does exist.

The new content type was dropped into the basicPage.jsp during editing - its body code is below. At least I’m trying to learn from the example. Maybe you’re giving me a clue though - that sometime in the demo template jsp needs modification? 

-John
