SOLVED
Hi,
Frustrating problem:
I set up a centered text frame containing subtitle in First Page template.
Save as Project Template, close everything
Create New using the Project Template I just saved
I populate the subtitle field
The {@projectSubtitle @} field in the text frame is left aligned
Happens every time, can’t get it to stop. I’ve messed with the constraint locks, everything.
thanks
To quote a previous time this came up (sorry, I have to type something here; it won’t let me just quote):
If you use File > New from Template, any text overrides in Text Frames on Page Templates will be preserved exactly as you set them.
If you use the Hub > Create New, which allows you to set the Project Title and Composer, some text overrides in Text Frames on Page Templates will not be preserved. These include horizontal alignment.
Either don’t use Create New from the Hub, or set up Paragraph Styles that do exactly what you want, rather than setting text to have any old Paragraph Style and then override it in the Page Template Editor.

This 1,000% fixed the problem. I created a new paragraph style called “Subtitle” and specified everything including alignment, then applied it to the text.
You freaking rock Leo.
