Cucumber fails to recognize steps definition (Intellij, Java Maven)

I created a java maven project (java v22) in intellij with junit, cucumber-junit, cucumber-java, cucumber-picocontainer, and selenium-java maven dependencies (all cucumber from io.cucumber v. 7.18.0,and selenium is 4.22.0, while junit is 4.13.2).

I created a "features" folder in the root directory, and inside there a file called Ebay_Home.feature with the content:
Feature: Ebay Home Page Scenarios
  Scenario: Advanced Search Link
    Given I am on Ebay Home Page
    When I click on Advanced Link
    Then I navigate to Advanced Search Page


And then in ./src/test/java, I created a directory called "steps" with java file called EbayHome_Steps.java with the content:
package steps;

import io.cucumber.java.en.Given;
import io.cucumber.java.en.Then;
import io.cucumber.java.en.When;

public class EbayHome_Steps {
@Given("I am on Ebay Home Page")
public void iAmOnEbayHomePage() {
//print something
}
@When("I click on Advanced Link")
public void iClickOnAdvancedLink() {
//print something
}
@Then("I navigate to Advanced Search Page")
public void iNavigateToAdvancedSearchPage() {
//print something
}
}


The content (printing something) doesnt matter, but my problem is when I right click Ebay_Home.feature file and click Run 'Feature: Ebay_Home' in intellij, I get an error about that there are no steps defined...

Anyone know how to fix this? Its a bare project - totally new that I just created these two files in.
