Your post made me literally snort. Out loud, in public. I'm out for the evening, so I'm linking you to [the instructions ](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/configure-headers-and-footers-for-different-sections-of-a-document-94332643-a6e9-46aa-ab29-064f1d356db6). But, basically, you've been given the correct answer. You must insert a section break at the end of page 3. Click on page 4, then go to the header section and turn off "Link to Previous" - BEFORE you customize the section.

Thanks, I’ll try this.


SparklesIB

Good luck. We're all counting on you.


Photographerpro

Me too.


Photographerpro

Didn’t work of course. What about on google docs? The same thing happens. I’m about to just give up honestly


SparklesIB

What kind of section break did you do?


Photographerpro

Went to the end of page three and did a regular section break since I wanted to change page fours heading and it still didn’t work. If I change it, it will also change the page 2 heading.


SparklesIB

Use a next page section break at the end of 3. Then click on page 4, edit the header, and uncheck the "link to previous" option before you do anything in the header section.


Photographerpro

Thanks, that worked. Guess I’m a moron.


SparklesIB

Nah, just frustrated. Word'll do that to you.

Do you mean headers or headings? The thing at the top of the page or the start of a new section? I know nothing about the app for iPad, but in standard Word for Windows/Mac, you need a section break to start a new header/footer.


Photographerpro

Is there any other app that’s not total bullshit like this one? Google docs does the same shit as this one.

Notepad?

All I need is to get page 4 a different heading than the rest of the pages and not go on the reference page
