Same page number in a Odd/Even page setup

A puzzle for all of you.

In a large document I have setup an ODD & EVEN layout. I wish to have the
same page number on both sides.
i.e. When a person opens the manual, the left and right page should read
"page 1" then when they turn the page, both sides should read "page 2", etc.

I have attempted using sections, but somehow it is not working.

Is this possible?

Thanks for your help and time

In your odd page, use ...

{ =({Page} + 1) / 2 }

And in your even page, use ...

{ ={Page} / 2 }

(braces entered via Ctrl+F9)
