    Description

      Issue Summary

      Copying a subset of pages (parent + children) activity doesn't update existing Page Properties Report macro "With Parent" filter/parameter to the brand new copy, but instead, it keeps pointing to the original Parent from the (non-copy) subset of pages.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Have a parent page + children pages.
      2. Add a Page Properties Report macro to one of the children pages.
      3. Add the "With parent" filter/parameter to the macro, pointing to the Parent page in question.
      4. Now perform a COPY of this subset of pages (parent + children) checking the "Include X child pages" checkbox.
      5. Observe that the brand new copied pages with new titles are generated, but the Page Properties Report macro "With Parent" filter/parameter on the copied child page still points to the original Parent, not to the brand new copy.

      Expected Results

      The "With Parent" field on the Page Properties Report macro should be automatically updated to the brand new parent copy, since this copy activity could even be performed to a different space, causing bigger problems permission/restriction wise.

      Actual Results

      The Page Properties Report macro "With Parent" filter/parameter on the copied child page still points to the original Parent, not to the brand new copy (Parent).

      Workaround

      Manually update the brand new copied pages, by editing the child one that contains the Page Properties Report macro and change the "With parent" filter from the original page from where the copy originated from to the brand new (copied) parent page.
