I’ve search the forums and did not find anything that allowed me to resolve my issue.

**TL;DR** - a single category is missing from the `/latest` listings.

**System Info**  
Have a self-hosted discourse instance at v3.0.5 that I’ve inherited. It appears to be using the Material Design theme, Dark, and a custom theme. The following plugins are installed: [chat](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/tree/main/plugins/chat), styleguide, and [discourse-oauth2-basic](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-oauth2-basic).

**The issue**  
When viewing the latest (`/latest`), topics from one of our categories is missing. If I manually navigate to the category, I can then view “latest” for that single category. I’m trying to understand/debug why topics in this single category are not showing up in `/latest` and how to get them to appear.

**What I’ve tried**

- I’ve checked the `default categories muted` setting and made sure the category has not been added (no categories have been added to this setting).
- Checked the `mute all categories by default` setting and made sure it is not enabled
- `remove muted tags from latest` is enabled so I’ve checked the `default tags muted`; no tags are selected for this setting.
- Checked the settings for the category itself. I don’t see anything in its settings that would indicate it should be hidden or removed from `/latest`
- also made sure my personal account doesn’t have the category muted under Preferences–\> Notifications → Categories

I’m not sure where else to look or what setting I’ve overlooked. Any suggestions?
