You clearly describe the high-level structure of your document. Every time you have a page or group of pages with a dedicated role (and an associated layout), you define a specific page style to format the page or group. You are encouraged to read at least the built-in help on this topic and, better, the freely downloadable guide.
Meanwhile, here is a short summary.
Create different pages styles for prologue, foreword and contents. Have you forgotten the cover?
Your chapters need two page styles: one for the title, one for the running pages. Your specification to have the title on an odd page and the first page on an odd page too prevents from doing it with a single page style.
You can restrict usage in the Page
tab of the style with the Page layout drop-down menu. Select Only right
for the chapter title style.
Headers and footers are enabled through the page style tab Header
and Footer
. Once this is done, you can add any text in them from a page formatted with the style.
The page style for running pages is “smarter”. You can use built-in Default Style (this is already the case). In the Header
tab, uncheck the Same content on left and right page so that you can have different headers on odd and even pages. These headers are built with fields so that the right content is automatically generated.

Chapter title
Easy, provided the chapter title is formatted with paragraph style Heading 1. Insert
>Field
>More Fields
, Document
tab. Type is Chapter and Format is Chapter name (or another one fitting your needs).
You can mix fixed text and fields. You are limited only by your imagination.

Publication title
I recommend storing the publication title in File
>Properties
, Description
tab, Title field. The publication title is then available everywhere in the document as value for the field Title in DocInformation
tab of Insert
>Field
>More Fields
.
Having the publication title in the properties allows you to change the title in a single location and all the “fielded” occurrences will be automatically updated.
You switch from a page style to another page style with a page break. You can do that in two ways.
-
manually: Insert
>Break
>Manual Break
so that you can choose the next page style and optionally reset the page number
-
automatically: if the next page always starts with the same paragraph style (e.g. the chapter title with Heading 1), you can put the page break in the paragraph style definition (Text Flow
tab)
Automatically inserted pages (to abide parity constraints) are fully blank, no header nor footer.
