I created the following 4 SharePoint Online sites as follow:-

MainGroup site and i registered it as Hub.

Finance site and i registered it as Hub + i defined the MainGroup as the parent hub.

Operations site and i registered it as Hub + + i defined the MainGroup as the parent hub.

Sales site and i registered it as Hub + + i defined the MainGroup as the parent hub.

now inside the MainGroup site home page >> i added a highlighted content web part >> and i defined to show Documents from "All Sites in the hub', as follow:-

[

but nothing were shown as follow:-

any advice? is the issue that i have sites defined as hubs and at the same time i am linking them to a parent hub? or it is a time issue? keeping in mind that i created the sites before 2 hours and i link them together after that.. and i have added around 100 documents all over the 4 sites..

Any advice please?

Hi @john john Pter ,

Thank you for posting in this community.

If you use another "Source"filter to filter these files, can it work fine? You may can try to replace "All Sites in the hub" with "This site". Check if the new Highlight Content web part can display the correct content?

If everything is fine with a different filter, it means it's a timing issue, please be patient and feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.
