djangoCMS with Aldryn NewsBlog missing "New news/blog article"

I am currently setting up a django CMS website on my server. I want to add a blog and tried to follow this Divio Blog Guide, which works with the aldryn-newsblog plugin. As I am not using the divio servers I had to install aldryn-newsblog. I followed the Aldryn Newsblog Setup:

pip install aldryn-newsblog

and added the following to my settings

'aldryn_apphooks_config',
'aldryn_categories',
'aldryn_common',
'aldryn_newsblog',
'aldryn_people',
'aldryn_reversion',
'aldryn_translation_tools',
'parler',
'sortedm2m',
'taggit',

I followed these last to steps from the Aldryn setup 1. Create a django CMS page in the normal way. 2. In Advanced settings... > Application settings, select NewsBlog.

When I select NewsBlog and try to "Create" a new News/Blog article I end up with this menu where i miss the corresponding button "New news/blog article". Did i forget or oversee something here?

Solution

  • I just faced the same issue – publishing the index page (page with a News & Blog apphook) should fix the problem.
