Newly added content to existing page types won't show up in older pages

If you edit one of your existing page types and you copy in some content from your global scrapbook the new content only shows up in new pages.

I do know there is a way to publish the changes to older pages too but I cannot see the wisdom behind that solution. If I change my page type I'm doing it on purpose. Why shouldn't I want the changes to be broadcasted to older content. Sounds like a maintainance nightmare. Beside the fact that I needed to login the concrete5 irc channel to find that solution!

this isn't a bug, its supposed to be like this to prevent people from complaining that they accidentally changed their entire site.

Your the first iv seen that complains about this, maybe an option to apply to all subpages,

This exists and works nicely. You can choose setup on child pages (see attached screenshot) and select what pages you'd like your new block to end up on.

I know that it exists. I wanted to bring this to the table to discuss it. I found this setting (not broadcasting it to all pages bound to the page type) not intuitive. At least it was to burried down somewhere - it was hard to find.

From the users point of view it would be nice to have this option available directly when you change the page type. What do you think?

Awesome. I've been trying to figure that out. Thank you, saved me hours of tedious work.
