I feel so silly for asking about this, what seems like fundamental knowledge. I tried searching around but i didnt know what to look for so here goes.
I will try and make it simple: On the front/homepage node, i have set up a tab with three rich text editors. The text written there is supposed to go into three different sidebars on the site, and i want that text to be consistent across all pages under the homepage (which is essentially every page). The sidebars are part of the master template. There is also only two document types, frontpage and basic text page. But they are seperate from eachother and there are no inheritance between them.
Please state the version of your Umbraco instance.
Ultimately you'd find the needed page by id, or use a Macro and recursive searching of the node tree to find the properties, and hence the values; the principles staythe same, but the realisation of it changes between versions.
Which works, but i take it there is something easier? I could do a macro of course but i figured it was too much work for something i had a feeling would be easier. But just weighing my options.
Quick question about templates and inheritance

How do i accomplish this?

It's version 4.7.1.1. Never knew there was that much of a difference.
I eventually got this solution

There you go, that's likely the easiest way to go about it.
Ok, thank you for your trouble :)
