Feedback - Header not appearing by default in Twenty Twenty-Five
With the recent changes in WordPress and the introduction of Twenty Twenty-Five, the header no longer appears automatically when creating new pages. The current lesson script assumes that a header pattern is always visible at the top of the page, but in the latest version this is not the case.
For clarity, I suggest updating the instruction: https://learn.wordpress.org/lesson/setting-up-your-pages-posts-site-logo-and-navigation-menu/ to explain that:
- The header now comes from the template part system rather than being automatically inserted with new pages.
- If users don’t see a header, they need to open the Site Editor → Templates (e.g., Page or Front Page) and add or create a Header template part.
- Inside the Header, they can place Site Logo, Navigation, and other blocks.

I am not sure how to replicate the issue. I've tried a clean installation of WordPress 6.8.2 that comes with the Twenty Twenty-Five as the default and activated theme. As you can see in the image below, all templates have header and footer template parts (patterns) by default.
If you decide to create a new template using the button Add Template, then you must add a header and/or a footer manually (you may choose to add predefined patterns that already contain a header and/or a footer).
I've tried installation using Xampp, Local, Docker, and Playground. I could not replicate the issue.
Could you please provide the use case in which you encountered this issue?

I have also tasted it on tastewp instance with Twenty Twenty-Five theme and I'm not able to reproduce this issue with WP version 6.8.2. I can see that all templates having header & footer visible. for details refer below video url https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/45749727?key=12d189e4f85eb0714c1872b37b37d4f7
