Adding a blog section (news)

[neo-art]

Hi,

Thank you for the nice starter.
Need some assistance with adding a small issue I faced ...

Trying to add a blog (news) section after a clean install by following this article: https://laracasts.com/series/learn-statamic-with-jack/episodes/6

Unfortunately, I got 404 when I try to access http://mysite.com/news no matter what I try.

Checked the news.yaml files - all is correct, the right templates and blueprints, but it still doesn't work.

Any idea what could be wrong with this?

Hey! Thanks for trying out the starter kit 🙌

A few things to check:

• Make sure your Pages collection has a “News” (/news) page set up to use the news-index template.
• Double-check that your News collection has its routing configured.
• Try clearing all cache under Utilities → Cache in the control panel.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Nat

I checked everything and all looks fine:
/content/collections/pages/news.md

id: d600e786-f0dd-47be-82d4-855afdd059db
blueprint: page
title: "New & Press"
template: news/index
page_builder:
    - id: mf5ys90f
      type: wysiwyg
      enabled: true
alt_seo_noindex: false
alt_seo_nofollow: false
exclude_from_sitemap: false
protect: none

/content/collections/news.yaml

title: 'News Articles'
template: news/show
layout: layout
mount: d600e786-f0dd-47be-82d4-855afdd059db
revisions: false
route: '/{mount}/{slug}'
date: true
sort_dir: asc
date_behavior:
  past: public
  future: private
preview_targets:
  -
    label: Entry
    url: '{permalink}'
    refresh: true

I have a second local install with a clean Statamic (without any starters) and following the guide, everything works.

This is really strange. Definitely, it is a routing problem but not sure what causes it.
