问题
I'm new to Drupal, and cannot understand how to do this: I must have accidentally deleted the default home page in my test site, and cannot find a way to restore it.
I see I can create a new basic page and set it as my new home, however this is missing something - for example it does not show latest articles with the "main page content" system block, even if I set this new page as the homepage in site settings.
Should I do something more to let Drupal know this is actually an homepage? And isn't there a way to restore the original default home page? If I delete the custom page and let the default home empty in site settings I'm now sent to the login page, or to my user profile if I'm logged-in.
Thanks for any help, al.

The default front page in Drupal 8 is actually not a page (a node) but a View.
Please, check out if Views and Views UI modules are enabled (Manage/Extend from admin menu).
If both of them enabled, then inspect all your current Views (Manage/Structure/Views). There should be one with a name "Frontpage".
If this "Frontpage" View exists and enabled, then set Default front page to /node in your site's settings (Manage/Configuration/Basic sites settings).
If this "Frontpage" View exists but disabled, then enable it.
If this "Frontpage" View does not exist, then you've probably deleted it and have 3 options to restore it:
- Create a new View which would work just as default original "Frontpage" View that have been deleted. You can create a new test site and just use its settings as a reference ("Frontpage" View will be available after a clean "standard" install).
- If you did not create any new Views or modify existing, then the best choice will be just unistalling/installing Views/Views UI modules. It will refresh all settings (i. e. all custom Views or settings will be missed, all default predefined Views will be restored).
- Not recommended. You can create a new Drupal fresh site, make Drupal believe that this new install is actually a copy of your current site, and then you can just export/import this "Frontpage" View from new install to your current site using core module "Configuration Manager".
