How do I Propagate to existing content pages from a master page in Affinity Publisher

[aymanzone]

hi,

In affinity publisher, I want to make new changes in the master page and propagate to the existing content pages.  I've change the title in each content page accordingly, so I want to keep the titles. However, I change the text size and text type and Horizontal scaling in the master page  (see yellow circle in link https://imgur.com/RFgdODy). How do I propagate them to the existing content pages which I already crated and changed the titles for.

Thanks

As soon as you have edited the content of a master layer on a document page, subsequent changes to the text style on the master frame content on the master page are no longer taken into account.

To avoid this problem, it is better to work with saved text styles instead and change this text style definition as usual, completely independent of the master frame.

So in your situation you would create a text style and apply it to the text on the master page and additionally to all edited frames on the document pages.

not heard / video of what? – For text styles use the Text Styles Panel...  https://affinity.help/publisher/English.lproj/pages/Panels/textStylesPanel.html

Thank you @thomaso  for the documentation link. 

YouTube down at the moment. There is a mega-thread on it on reddit.

Serif has videos also on Vimeo (appears kind of unsorted).  https://vimeo.com/affinitybyserif

Maybe Alfred's list gives an easier overview:
