I am not familiar with this issue, however, just to make sure... Have you configured the web part to fetch information from all sites in the hub?

Hey ArefHalmstrand,

Thank you for replying.

I did configure that, but I have come think of something else.
Is there a licens requirement that could be in play here? The user can log on to SPO and navigate on all sites in the HUB, but I am wondering if the search part of this could be licens related.

  miclarsen1 I have often shared a hub site to external users, with unique access to specific sites. Allowing them to have dynamic content on the hub site. It should not (AFAIK) be license related, due to Microsoft allowing indefinite users to be invited to the SharePoint environment. Is there any possibility that the "news page" that is created in another site, has not been promoted to a news page? Perhaps it is visible as a regular page and therefore, not visible in the web part?
  
  What web part are you using for the moment? Try adding the "highlighted content" web part and see if you can get it to show in there.
  
  Yours sincerely,

    Hi ArefHalmstrand ,
    
    As it turned out, the problem was in fact solved by adding a licens to the user.
    
    But thank you for the input anyway.
