How to get a custom Site Page content type to show in the Site Pages Library New dropdown?
I have created a new Site Pages content type from the SharePoint Admin Center Content Type hub. The parent content type is Site Pages. When I add the content type to the Site Pages library on a site, the new content type does not appear in the New dropdown.

How do I get the new Site Pages Content Type to show in the New dropdown of Site Pages Library?

I did figure out what was causing the issue.
In the SharePoint Admin Center under Settings, you have to check the "Allow users to create new modern pages" checkbox for the Pages settings. Once you check this box, the Content Type will show in the New drop-down on the Site Pages library where it has been added.
I updated this setting in my dev tenant, but haven't updated my prod tenant (still have to go through the change management process).
