I recently used the Opencart Upgrade 1.4 to 1.5.1 upgrade patch found here: http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=50292 .

After using it I have found that my Opencart products, categories, menu, you name it, has disappeared. The upgrade patch ran successfully and I ran into no issues at all. The instruction file that came with the patch file states the following:
STEP 20. Visit your homepage. Hit Ctrl+F5 twice to clear your css cache.
You should see the main header and footer with NO products or modules. But no errors.

From this point on the store is in your hands and the upgrade process should be complete.

The next step is to begin adding the modules to the layouts...
Goto the Admin->Extensions->Modules section and edit the modules.
For example, Add a new instance of Latest Module to the "Content Top" position and choose the "home" layout.
Now refresh the front end, you should see the latest module
Continue on for each module for each page.
I do see the main header and footer as is mentioned in the quotes. I have tried to get the various modules to re-appear by activating them but they do not show up.

What do I need to do to get everything showing again?

Regards,
Mark.

In 1.4.x all categoeries whre assigned to the side categorie box, now you will have to assign all categories to top menu to make them visisble.

in order to do so, edit categorie, click second tab and scrol down.
find top categorie and select.

now it will show in top categorie and you should be able to see categorie and products

I have gone ahead and assigned the Categories to the top menu but they do not appear. I think the template I am using only works with OpenCart 1.5.2. Would this be the cause?

Mark.
