I am using a Thesis document class. There are pages that come out without a number. For example, the first page of the Table of Contents has no number, although I now it is being counted, because the next page (i.e., the second page of the Table of Contents) has a number, and it is one more than the one that is absent from the previous page.

How can I force LaTeX to display a number in every page?

Thanks

    Welcome to TeX.SX! Please help us to help you and add a minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates your problem. It will be much easier for us to reproduce your situation and find out what the issue is when we see compilable code, starting with \documentclass{...} and ending with \end{document}. – yo' Apr 17 '15 at 14:02

    Also note that some classes/styles provide move the page number to the bottom or omit it if it's the first page of a chapter, and some templates also remove the number completely on an empty page between chapters. Both is considered typographically correct. – yo' Apr 17 '15 at 14:02
  • Hi yo, I think it has to do with what you mention, as the page numbers are removed from every first chapter including the front matter. Is there a way to overrule that first-page-of-chapter page numbering removal? Thanks – Elsarcas Apr 17 '15 at 14:10

    @Elsarcas: This may be as easy as adding \makeatletter\let\ps@oldempty\ps@empty\let\ps@empty\ps@plain\makeatletter in your preamble if all pages that don't have a page number uses the empty page style and those that do use plain. The first \let saves the empty page style in oldempty, so if you need it (perhaps for the title page), you can still issue \thispagestyle{oldempty}. – Werner Apr 17 '15 at 14:16
