There is a page numbers in the footer, begins from the page 3 (page numbers 1 and 2 are intensionaly hidden) and last till the page 54, but suddenly the next page numbers are: 1, 2, 3 and I can't fix it. How can I make consistensy numeration in the footer, from the page 3 to the last page 57?

Have you used a different Page Style for Pages 3-54 and Pages 55-57? Did you intend to do so, as for example, to hold appendices or endnotes?

To see what Page Styles are in use open the Stylist (/Format /Styles and Formatting, or F11 key) and press the fourth icon from the left to show Page Styles. On the bottom bar of the Stylist, select Applied Styles from the dropdown; the number of Page Styles shown will now reduce to those in use

Does the Status Bar show at bottom of the Writer window? If not, turn it on with /View /Status Bar. Click cursor on Page 54 of your document. About 1/3 way across Status Bar you should see the name of the Page Style in use. Now click on Page 55; does that Page Style name change?
