title: joomla template conversion from 1.5 to 2.5
body: <p>My company updated web-site based on Joomla 1.5 to 2.5 version, and now I need to convert template to fit with the new version.</p>
  
  <p>I'm following this tutorial: <a href="http://magazine.joomla.org/issues/issue-may-2012/item/740-How-to-convert-Joomla-15-template-to-Joomla-25" rel="nofollow">http://magazine.joomla.org/issues/issue-may-2012/item/740-How-to-convert-Joomla-15-template-to-Joomla-25</a></p>
  
  <p>I installed the converted version but there are some problems: only the header image is shown.
  All the articles are hidden.</p>
  
  <p>Looking the source code of the page I discovered that all the <code>&lt;jdoc:include /&gt;</code> tags are copid in the returned HTML without being interpreted, so the components are not imported in the page.</p>
  
  <p>Can you help me?</p>
