Adding Page Numbering

Hi everyone. I want to add an automatic paga numbering to my document. I inserted a header and then, when i click on insert field and page numbering ‘Page Numbering’ appears but it doesn’t update to the current page numbers. Furthermore, if i write manually a numer 1, it doesn’t update the other page numbers (1,2,3…). I don’t knwo what is the problem
I will be grateful if you could help me

You may have enable View>Field Names. Toggle it.

To see the page number and not the field name “Page number”, press Ctrl+F9 (the same that menu Vies - Field Names).

Tested with LibreOffice 6.4.7.2 (x86); OS: Windows 6.1.
