Affinity Publisher buggy since last update

[Nuscha]

Since the last update (which I only installed 2 days ago), Affinity Publisher has been buggy for the first time for me.

I had one crash, but the restored document looks fine and had all my last changes.

But I had to change the design (from 5.5. x 8 inches to 5.25 to 8 inches) and even though I used "apply this change to all master pages", it did not change the layout.

So I went in and changed it manually for each master page of the novel. But an hour later, while I'm deep in the manuscript, fixing overflown text etc., I noticed that some pages were still in the old size. So I went back to the master page, and entered the new format AGAIN. Pressed save.
Same thing has happened 4 times now.

I pressed "save" in between, I have not closed the document or done anything else.

The other thing is that for one item, the text keeps disappearing. It's an ad page for the other books in the series. I have now copied in the text 3 times. But every time I add or remove a page SOMEWHERE ELSE in the document, the text of the ad disappears and only the image stays behind.

It's the first time that working with Affinity Publisher has been frustrating.

If you try this again on a test document, you should see the message states 'Target pages differ in size to the master. Would you like to resize them to match?' and clicking yes will resize the pages that the Master Page is assigned to and not the other Master Pages.

Could you attach your afpub file or upload it here and let me know which page the advert is on?
