I have the main node (node1) and a remote node (node8). Each have a template, ie. template_node1 and template_node8. I work only from node1.

If I make a new item on template_node8, it gets created remotely on node8 fine. If I take an item on template_node1 and "Copy selected to..." template_node8, the item never appears on node8. On node1, it looks like template_node8 has been updated, but it hasn't really.

It looks like the copy function doesn't flag the changes for distribution.
