LibreOffice: start numbering at page 2

I have a text document prepared in LibreOffice Writer, where the first page should contain only title and table of contents. Page numbering should then begin on the following page. That’s it: page 1 should have no numbering, page 2 should be numbered 1, page 3 should be numbered 2 and so on… How to do it?

I googled a bit and found this discussion, where users proposed different workarounds. Actually, the solution is really simple, as stated in the bottom of the page. Simply, make the first page a “Title page”, by going to Format > Title page…

In the settings window that will appear, select Reset page numbering after title pages:
