[Tex/LaTex] In LYX, how can I eliminate or change page numbering in the Appendix Chapter*

lyxpage-numbering

I have tried everything suggested on the web but nothing has worked – yet!

I am writing a thesis with 6 numbered Chapters.
For page numbering I am using

\pagenumbering{arabic}

and

\pagestyle{headings}

starting at Chapter 1, which comes out like this:
First Chapter page numbering working example

After my six Chapters I add my 'Bibliography', and after that 'Appendices' as an unnumbered *Chapter. However, the page numbers showing in my Appendices have kept in 'memory' the Bibliography (previous) chapter. See here:

PDF view of Appendices section

I would like to change this so that it shows 'Appendices….page number' or just 'page number' or as a last resort by eliminating page numbering in the Appendices *Chapter altogether.

Thank you in advance!

I just solved the case myself. The solution is to change the \pagestyle to {plain} at the section I only want numbers showing. My code which now does this is shown below simplified:

\begin{document}
\pagenumbering{arabic} \pagestyle{headings}

Include Chapter 1

...

Include Chapter 6

\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Bibliography} 

\pagestyle{plain}

Include Appendices

\end{document}

Thanks you anyhow!
