Deirdre,
Do you have a working chapter or a template without flow problems?
If so, it may be easier to:
- Save the working chapter as a new file.
- Clean all the content out of the working chapter. Crl-a to select all,
then Ctrl-x to cut.
- Copy in the content from your problem file.
- Put your cursor in the first flow, Ctrl-a then Ctrl-x.
- Swap to the new file, and paste. Ctrl-v.
- Back in the original, go to the next chunk of content and repeat,
pasting that into the correct position.
- Continue until your original source file is empty.
- In the new file, import variables from your source file and tags and
stuff if you need them. DON'T import the page layouts.
- DON'T save the now-empty original, so you have a backup copy, just
in case.
This is likely to be easier than trying to fix something if you're not sure
what's broken or how to repair it.
