Location in Highlighted webpart refers to sitepages instead of location homepage

[Rob Oudejans]

It seems I have found a bug in the highlighted content webpart. When I want to show news in the highlighted content webpart, the location of the newspost refers to sitepages instead of the homepage of the location. Anyone familiar with this problem?

It's how it's worked since day one. News articles technically are just site pages flagged with a promoted state column. So it's picking up the content itself. I agree when you pick news it should treat it a little differently, as most people prefer the way Highlighted content works over the News webpart in some cases.

OK, I think I am out of options. We can't use the news webpart because of the guest acces issues. An alternative is the highlighted content webpart but a pretty bad one because of this location thing.
