Threading text in new pages

Hi,

 

I want to add new blank pages with text frames that thread through the whole document so that I can type into the document directly and have the text continue. I know about holding shift to auto-flow when placing a document; that is not what I want to do. I would just like to know if there is a way to not have to manually thread all the frames. Thanks in advance!

Hi @ellie_9176 , Also, with all your pages selected in the Pages panel, make sure the Allow Shuffle options are checked:

Put a Primary Text Frame on your Parent Pages (thread them) and turn on Smart Text Reflow in the preferences.
