Sidebar not showing any content unless I type into the search

[Pat]

In my new space, I have created a bunch of folders and pages in them.

But the sidebar's "Content" section doesn't show any of it. It's just an empty section with zero filter applied.

If I then type something into the search of that section, the results are shown in the dropdown, but nothing stays in the Content section once I clear the search.

I can see all of my stuff if I click on the "All content" link, but nothing in the sidebar.

Troubleshooting 1:

I have tried to go into Space settings -> Content -> Reorder, but that doesn't give me any indication as to what would need to move to change this behaviour.

Troubleshooting 2:

Under Space settings, I made sure that the space has an existing page as the home page.

But that also isn't shown in the content area of the sidebar (unless I search for it).

Any idea?

@Pat Have you set a page as the overview page for the space? The tree only shows the overview page and all pages created below it. See this section of this page: https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/set-up-your-space-homepage/#Set-another-page-as-your-overview

Hi @Pat 

Presumably you clicked the arrow next to Content to expand the section...

Does you page tree in the Reorder section look like this? That is... pages are child pages under the root/home page.

In my screenshot, page System Status will not appear in the content section as it's outside of the root/home page.
