master page won't duplicate

[madelinerose]

Hope somebody can help. Have adapted my masterpage from a template - saving as I go. However, all other pages rertain the original template design without my changes. Any advice?

Hello The way its should work is once you make the master page it should copy over when making a new page, does this happen everytime?

Hi I have a similar problem.  On initially creating my new site there was a button on the first(?) page of the wizard, to say Use Master Page.  I said yes (clicked it), and then I went back later and unclicked this.  I have now realised my mistake but cannot find how to get back to reset this to ON.

Please help

Thanks

I have had this happen to me so many times and I have now realised how to fix it (and remember) not that it's an easy fix and i'm pretty sure it shouldn't happen in the first place.  I found the problem lies when you add new pages.  So if you are getting rid of the default pages and putting your own new ones in so you get the name you want.  For some reason the 'use master page' doesn't work when you create your own new pages.  Now i'm not very technically minded and have completely self taught what little I know about the website creator, but this was where I found the problem and I actually had to go back to the start and do the website again, this time using the default pages and just renaming them (I think that's what I did) Ok, just had another look and not sure that was what I did, but it was definitely something to do with that.  I seem to remember going into a page properties and seeing another box to tick for 'use master page' but I can't find it now.
