I’ve taken the plunge and installed DS4.5 onto my laptop.

Everything is showing OK in the Content Library, but nothing is showing in the smart content, even though I installed the Genesis Starter Essentials.

Can anyone help me sort this please?

Check to see if the CMS is running, Smart content only shows with it active.

Use the Smart Content Mini menu and try REIMPORTing the Metadata.

Open the Content Library option menu, by right-clicking on the pane’s tab or by clicking the menu button in the top corner, and select Content DB Maintenance. Reimport Metadata is one of the options in the dialogue - check it and click Apply.

The content is in the content library, just not in smart content
