Issue with cover page

Hello,
I have a problem when I want to change the cover page or delete it; it gets deleted but also all the pages of my text disappear. I tried it on another document and that doesn't happen, so I would like to know if there is a way to prevent my body text from disappearing when I want to change the cover page on this document. I find it strange that everything disappears just because I delete the cover page.
Thank you in advance

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 46.0

    Hello,

    Without more information and without seeing your document, we can assume that all your text has been entered on the cover page, even if it generated several pages.

    I didn't even know it was possible, how can I make sure that this text is not counted as part of the cover page?
    Because I made a summary and that works well so I find it strange.

      Same response: without seeing your document, it's hard to say more.
      What I can suggest:
      You select all your text without the cover page, create a new document, insert a cover page, click on the second page, and paste your text.

      In general, it is essential to display non-printable formatting marks to know what you're doing (Ctrl+8). When inserting a cover page, it is separated from the rest by a page break located in different places depending on the type of cover page. You must absolutely position yourself on the next page to ensure you are no longer in the cover page. If you click in the cover page and hit paragraph returns, for example, to move down, you are still in the cover page, even if you add 500 lines.
