fancyhdr | Header and Footer on Chapter Pages

Post by MatthiasN »

To adjust my header and footer layout, I use the fancyhdr package

With this package I can adjust my headers and footers the way I like, but on pages where I start a new chapter I only get the page number printed in the center of the footer.

Are there any commands I can use to change the header and footer layout of pages on which new chapters start, independently from the other pages?

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

A solution to this problem can be found in different ways (in order of priority).
  1. A Forum Search.
  2. A look into the fancyhdr manual (Section 7).
  3. A look at similar topics on the button of this page (only when logged in).

Hi Matthias,

welcome to the board!

You could use the command \fancypagestyle{plain}{...} for this. Chapter start pages have plain page style. It's described in the fancyhdr manual in 7 Redefining plain style.
