Hi everyone, I was messing around with my InDesign document trying to figure out how to add page numbers, and for some reason InDesign changed my fourth page (a left-facing page) into a right-facing page, thus messing up the whole layout. Now pages that need to be facing each other for the sake of design are not, and the whole thing is thrown off. I can't figure out how to change this now right-facing page *back* to a left-facing page. (See screenshot.) Can anyone help? 😞

Are you trying to put them back the way they were? InDesign can do that for you.

1.Select all your pages in the Pages panel.

2. Allow Pages to Shuffle on in the Page panel drop down. 

3. Allow Spreads to Shuffle off in the Page panel drop down. 

4. Select and drag your page towards the spine.

You will get an arrow pointing in the page facing direction when you approach the spine.
