Content not rendering

I am simply trying to add new content in the form of new md files in the content folder. For example:
content/posts/post-4.md
+++

title = ‘Post 1’

date = 2023-01-15T09:00:00-07:00

draft = false

+++

This is some content to be displayed by hugo

The above is a new post in the same format as the default archetype. I have tried using the cli command to create new content. I have added content within the template content folder and the site content folder. None of these options have resulted in a new post being rendered.

Ideally i have a custom theme that i have editted trying to get content to display but now i am just trying to use any theme or no theme at all. No matter what I do no new content can be added it seems.

Could you post link to your repo as nothing we can help from your initial entry.
