Need help regarding page numbering in pages.

Hello, I'm trying to number my pages starting from the second page, but the 'page numbering' under document>section is greyed out and can't be modified, please help.

Insert a new section at the beginning of your document without a page number. The second section's Document > Section panel should not have Match previous section selected. Insert a page number in the header or footer of the second section as preferred. Once you do that, then that Section panel's Page numbering will light up and you can choose your Start at value.
