News filter on page properties not working for news link repost page
Hi Lori Wilson,
This is quite old but did you manage to solve your issue? My problem is a bit similar, although I am site collection admin, the Highlight web part does not return any "repost page" at all, even if I select "All" in Type.
Regards,

Roch yes we did. The relevant data point was that people with elevated access could see it. Here's what was happening:
Author creates news link - pastes in link, publishes - it works
Author realizes they forgot to set the category field for where it should show up
Author goes to the news link page and clicks to edit the properties (without going into edit mode)
This leaves it in a checked out state - and makes it not visible to viewers
Solution: training authors to always edit and republish
IDK if that helps you but we are also having a different news link/repost page issue that we have a support ticket in to microsoft for. Something in that feature changes a few weeks ago and it's impacting our use of it in many places.
