Created attachment 188817 [details] Files 00.odt, 01.odt and 02.odt Let's suppose you have a main file in writer (00.odt). In this file, we have a section. Then, we have another file in writer (01.odt) that has another section linked to the specific section in the file 00.odt. Now, we have a third file in writer (02.odt) that has a section that links to the section in file 01.odt, which happens to be linked to another section in file 00.odt. In this scenario, the cascade of link of file 02.odt breaks, unless you uncheck the "protected" option in the section configuration. In my view, the cascade of links should be kept even when the section in file 02.odt is "protected". Attached goes these three files.

Dear hugofernando, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION.

Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b.
