Created attachment 124171 [details] Screen shot of pre-bug Greetings, I think I may have found a bug. I can reproduce quite easily on my Scientific Linux 6 systems running LibreOffice Impress 5.1.1.3 (Had issue with 5.0 & updated today to confirm bug still exists). To reproduce: Open new Impress document. In the default window type blah for the title and window. Insert-> Header and Footer... -> type blah in for the date and footer. See screen shot PossibleBug_01.png. Save as flat file fodp Close window. Reopen. See screen shot PossibleBug_02.png. Why is the footer duplicated??? Instead of showing "blah" it shows "blahblah"! Save, close, and reopen. Now shows "blahblahblah"!! Nothing I do makes that go away except for removing footer completely. Now, open the saved fodp file and open a new impress file. Copy the slides over. Footer is now correct! Hooray!! Save as fodt. Close Impress. Open file again. Footer is now duplicated again. :-( I can not replicate if I save as odp. However, at work we save the presentations in flat file format fodp in a Git repo for versioning/tracking. Getting this fix would be very helpful. Thank you!

Confirmed bug on Ubuntu 15.10 with LibreOffice Impress 5.0.5.2.
Please attach an actual file demonstrating the problem then set to UNCONFIRMED. THanks
Created attachment 124173 [details] Example Here is an example.
I can confirm with Version: 5.2.0.0.alpha0+; win7 and 4.0
The bug is also present in the Debian versions 5.2.7-1~bpo8+1 and 4.3.3-2+deb8u7. In the "Date Area", "Footer Area" and "Slide Number Area" the special tokens <date/time>,<footer> and <number> are added, respectively, after each save and open operation.
It looks that saving the file in fodp format is the problem. I could get rid of the page number duplicate with a quick&dirty sed command: sed -i 's@<text:page-number><number></text:page-number>@@g' slides.fodp
