I'm trying to create a custom page layout for Sharepoint 2013. So far the only changes I've made to the Design Manager template are linking a CSS file (linked within the PlaceHolderAdditionalPageHead section), and added divs, each containing a Web Part zone, to the PlaceHolderMain section. The page layout previews with no problem, but when I try to set it as the layout for an actual Sharepoint page, I get this error:
The DataSourceID of 'TopNavigationMenu' must be the ID of a control of type IHierarchicalDataSource. A control with ID 'topSiteMap' could not be found.
I've tried googling this error, but all the instances of it I can find are caused by custom web parts etc. Does anyone know what could be causing it here?
EDIT: I have confirmed I am site collection administrator, and I checked the logs. They don't mention anything new, but here's the full error from the logs just to be clear:
