The site index page, https://blog.babka.social has a section for "All stories", which is driven by:

https://gitlab.com/babka_social/babka-social-blog/-/blob/main/index.html#L34

There are two stories. The sticky story does not show up, which is correct, but it doesn't appear the other story does either, which means they're something wrong with either the second story, or something else.

That should be fixed.

@emacsen
The algorithm for building a home page is as follows:

after the "hero" section, the next "recent posts" section. The last 4 posts are displayed here.
the next section is "sticky" where the last post with the status "sticky" in frontmatter is shown.
the next section "all posts" where the rest of the posts are displayed, starting with the fifth (since the first four are already shown in the "resent" section).

So as long as you have less than 5 posts, the "all posts" section will be empty.

I think this is logical, but if you want to change this algorithm, I will change it.

I think it's logical too, but right now it also shows as "All stories" with no content.

I don't know if wrapping the "All stories" in an { %if ... would break the layout, but if not, then I think not showing all stories at all if the length is too short is the right way to address this.
