Repeating of object fails "liveshared objects can not be made repeating"

[joicol]

This should be a simple operation: repeating an object on all pages: "liveshared objects can not be made repeating" ??
I don"t remember ever having "liveshared" any object, so what should I do about it ?

I think this message refers to Live Copies. A Live Copy cannot be made into a Repeating Object. I guess because their respective features are not compatible.

Do you know how do I disable this ?

I have just made a Live Copy of a Shape and Repeated both on other pages.
I also then created a Variant and everything still works.

Where you get the Error dialog is if you try to additionally try to Share with all Variants.
Omit this bit and you will be fine. In your case, probably use Website Variants > Stop sharing with variants.

I would not know how, maybe it's automatic if you work with variants (in my case main and mobile), I don't know; in this case it's the header image, but there is no stop sharing option (grey)possible ?

I could solve it by copy/pasting the image, delete the the original, etc, but that's not a very elegant way of dealing with the issue

Make sure there are no Live Copy elements in the Repeating Object.

What is a live copy element ?

I think you need to read the manual for Live Copies, Repeating Object and Sharing across Variants before trying anything else.
