\part*{some text} shows page number

[Luca Saiani]

I noticed that using

\part*{some text}

adds the page number at the center bottom of the page. My thesis is divided in parts and I am using the command \part*{text} as title for the appendix because I don't want to have this title to be "Part XX: Appendix"

Is there a way to get a consistent behaviour between \part{} and part*{} in terms of page numbering?

Thanks,

Luca

Try adding this after the call to classicthesis:

\titleformat{name=\part,numberless}[display]{\normalfont\centering\large}%
{\thispagestyle{empty}\partname~\MakeTextUppercase{\thepart}}{1em}%
{\color{Maroon}\spacedallcaps}[\bigskip\normalfont\normalsize\color{Black}]

I assume you don't need the part-text for this one. Compare with the similar titlesec package setting in classicthesis.sty.

Hi Ivo,

thanks for your code. I did some changes:

\titleformat{name=\part,numberless}[display]{\normalfont\centering\large}%
{\thispagestyle{empty}~}{1em}%
{\color{Maroon}\spacedallcaps}[\bigskip\normalfont\normalsize\color{Black}]

To rid off the part-text.

Now it works as expected. Issue solved.

Thanks, Luca
