Problem

I've solved this issue, But I'm EXTREMELY confused on what's going on here, and would like someone to explain it to me for future reference.

So I have a Laravel 10 Project and my first route is a welcome page

Route::get('/', function () { return view('welcome'); })->name('welcome');

I made a Blade Component that's just a static menu. I generated it, Copy/pasted the existing menu, made a slight edit, replaced block with <x-header-menu /> and it worked fine in the welcome view.

I then made a new php file from scratch, and in this view, The blade component was Not Recognized. When I loaded the page, It didn't work. WHAT? Code was copy/pasted from the welcome page. This view was inside a folder So

But I have other pages inside folders that use a different component that work fine. So I'm SUPER confused as to what's happening here. (Using PhpStorm IDE btw)

Now The Weirdest thing here though, Is when I deleted info_page_1.blade.php, copy/pasted the Welcome.blade.php to info_page_1.blade.php, Then copy/pasted old info_page_1.blade.php code, It worked.

So... WHAT HAPPENED HERE? Why could the Blade Component not be found with a new file but could be found with a copy/pasted already working file, In the same location with the same name?

Solutions

Found the answer immediately as I switched back...

Name your file

info_page_1.blade.php

instead of

info_page_1.php
