Arduino on Breadboard unable to blink LED

I have tried just about everything trying to get the circuit to work. I have tried 2 different 328ps, replaced every component in the circuit, and burned a bootloader for using the internal crystal instead of external. Basically, I can upload the blinking sketch to the 328p with it socketed in the UNO, but as soon as I put it in the breadboard circuit, nothing happens. The digital pin is reading 0. The AVCC is also reading 0 despite being hooked up to VCC. I can try to provide any additional info, https://www.instructables.com/How-to-Build-an-Arduino-Uno-on-a-BreadBoard/ This is the first tutorial I followed.

Edit: I actually just figured it out. I had a button on the reset line with the resistor that was pulling to ground even though I don't think it should have. I removed the button and it just started working, which is weird because I've definitely removed it before.

Welcome to the forum

Which pin of the 328 chip on the breadboard is the LED connected to and which pin are you trying to control in the sketch ?

Note that pin 13 of the chip is not pin 13 as far as the IDE is concerned

I just made an edit explaining how I fixed it.
