2 years ago I've found some more issues regarding this (here and here), and apparently the hidden fields simply cannot be saved in the Files collection type.
So my follow-up question now is: How are the hidden templateKey fields generated for the pages that are packaged with the template in this repo if Files collections cannot have hidden fields saved to the .md files?
I can manually add the fields to a new .md file and get the page to compile, but the CMS removes the templateKey field whenever it pushes a content update.
Bug report
What is the current behavior? The hidden fields for new pages I am creating are not being saved to the .md file that Netlify CMS creates, so Gatsby fails to build, as there is no path to a component.
If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce. I created a new page in the config.yml file, adding the following under the file collection:
I then navigated to the /admin page, and edited the new Sidebar page. I saw a new file appear at /pages/sidebar/index.md. However, the hidden templateKey field was not present, and the compilation failed at this point.
I have pushed my repo to this repository.
What is the expected behavior? I would expect to see the hidden fields I placed in the config.yml file to appear in the final index.md file.
