Not sure why but my master items are not showing up on the pages. I put them on a top layer. I am trying to add page numbers to a multi-page document. Any thoughts?

Send your .indd file with a page that contains "bug" to some dropbox/yadisk/other service and some of our forum users will look into it.

Do you have more than one parent/master in your document?

Are you sure the parent page with the page numbers is the one used in the document?

If you aren't comfortable sharing your document, at least a screen shot with the Pages panel and the Layers panel open would help us help you faster.
