# Custom post archive error when publishing posts

 * Hey,
 * I’m using a custom theme, with numerous custom post types. Everything seems to
   work flawlessly, until I attempt to publish a new post. I have an custom post
   type archive page that displays all the posts of type ‘project.’ When I create
   a new project page, and publish it, the archive page breaks. Instead of displaying
   the header followed by the list of projects, it only displays the header. The
   wordpress ‘control bar’ that allows one to access the backend from whatever page
   you’re on, is also missing. Moving that new post to the trash, and reloading 
   the archive page, restores it to working order.
    There must be some silly mistake
   I am making… Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
 * Thanks!
