Hi there,
I have a question regarding how to edit the header section of the Masters / Doctoral Thesis template.
At the top of each page the underlined header correctly displays the chapter name and the page number, however the chapter number is set to one throughout the document. How can I ammend this?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Header chapter number incorrect
Hi and welcome,
i cannot reproduce the behaviour with the current version of the template (updated yesterday).
Which version of the template are you using?
Producing a minimal working example will allow us to see exactly what you describe.

Re: Header chapter number incorrect
Thank you for replying to my post.
It is the previous version I downloaded this last month. Although I have fixed the problem, I wasn't aware that the headers are in the chapter files and had been trying to find a way to edit this in the main.tex and Thesis.cls files.
Sorry for wasting your time.
