I am new to LaTeX and I am writing my thesis atm.

I want to have a separate title page for each new section where it states the Section number, title and a few lines explaining the contents of the section. I have google'd around but can only find solutions for people using documentclass book/report. But I am using documentclass article. I have also tried using \usepackage{titlesec}.

I want to have it like this: Chapter's title page before every chapter, and every chapter with its title

I have tried using the following code in my main.tex but it gave error as I could not use the \chapter commands and I tried to substitute them with \section but it did not work.

\titleclass{\chapter}{page}
\assignpagestyle{\chapter}{empty}
\titleformat{\chapter}
    [display]
    {\centering\Huge\bfseries}
    {\chaptername\ \thechapter}
    {0pt}
    {\huge}
    [\clearpage]

Help is much appreciated!

    Welcome to TeX SX! Could you post a complete code, starting with \documentclass and ending with \end{document} which reproduces the problem? – Bernard Mar 09 '20 at 21:25
  • Hi @bakayaru, please provide a MWE. Check this to understand what people ask you about. It is hard to help without knowing exactly what is causing the problem. Mainly which class and packages you are using. – FHZ Mar 09 '20 at 23:58
  • If you are writing a thesis then book is a much better choice of document class than article. In you insist on using \documentclass{article} but please post a minimal working example so that people can see your setup. –  Mar 10 '20 at 01:12

    You should use a book class (book, scrbook, memoir) and change\sections to\chapters and\subsections to\sections`, ... and probably use also \part for the first level. – Fran Mar 10 '20 at 04:19
  • This is what I have:

    \documentclass[a4paper, 12pt, titlepage]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[swedish]{babel} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage[export]{adjustbox} \usepackage{fancyhdr} \usepackage{titlesec} \usepackage{nameref} \usepackage{enumitem}
