When I post a new entry, the previous entry gets deleted from the index page, although it remains in the database.

What gives?

When I tested this feature after first installing and customizing, it worked. I really don't think anything has changed, does anyone know of some obvious thing I'm missing before I pull my hair out retracing my steps back into the install?

I so very much appreciate it, thanks.

By default, MT displays the last 7 days worth of entries on the main page. You can increase the number of days to show in Weblog Config > Preferences.

You can also edit your Main Index template and set it to show a specific number of entries, not days.
CODE
<MTEntries lastn="x">

* Change x to the number of entries to show

Oh man, you are my hero, GOD.

Changing the default number of days from 7 to 30 instantly solved the problem.

Just the help I was looking for. Thank you so much. smile.gif
