Hi @Kistaraq Egede

Did you resolve this?

Several forum experts have requested a sample file - can you provide this?

Thanks

Hi @Kistaraq Egede:

Check your Pages panel. If content was inadvertantly added to the parent page and not a body page, this would happen. When you close and reopen a file, it opens to the body pages. Parent page content would be visible but not editable. There are other reasons, but I'm guessing this is the issue.

I guessed that you were mind readers, that's why I asked the way I did. 😛
