Hi Beta Team,

I made a heading global today. I used it on a few pages. it worked great. Later I noticed the global component in the side bar was missing. see photo. The global is still on the page shown in the green.

 ![globals](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/9/a/9a41371a879b23ec72b2457874838d6e90aab91a.jpeg)

I’ve seen this little bug myself, the Global is still stored it’s just not showing up in the list (we’ll get this fixed soon).

If you quit and re-open the project does it appear back in the sidebar?

Not globals but everything on my page disappear save and they come back, noticed this if I left elements open overnight, I think that’s when it happened

Try adding a new global… (you can always delete it after)

Hi Dan,

As you thought! Globals were all gone then I restarted app and added a new global.

Now all my previous globals are back as well. 😀

Phew! We still need to fix the bug, but it’s good you’re back up and running!
