Please attach a sample file, reduce the size as much as possible without private information, and paste the information in Menu/Help/About LibreOffice, there is a copy icon.

I created a 3-page document, added a footer, changed the border of the footer (Footer menu > Format Footer > More > Borders), and the change was visible on all pages as soon as I pressed OK.

Can you please test again in the latest version and share an example document ot more precise steps?
Thank you!
