Inserting number of pages (not page number)

EndNote EndNote General
1

I’m using EndNote X8.2 and would like to know how to insert the number of pages (not the page number) of a reference in the footnotes. I use the form ‘’, p. |Cited Pages.’’ but when I want to insert the number of pages through ‘‘Edit Citation’’ I can’t do it because I always have the letter ‘‘p’’ before the number and not after the number. I study in art history and we use our own style which works very well but I can’t find a solution for this problem.
Thank you for your help.

thank you Leanne,

I have just clarified my first message.

I use the form ‘’, p. |Cited Pages.’’ but in this case when I want to insert the number of pages through ‘‘Edit Citation’’ I can’t do it because I always have the letter ‘‘p’’ before the number and not after the number.

Thank you

Here is for example in Footnotes templates my reference type for a book :

Author, Title| [ Translated Title ]|, trad. de: Language| par Translator|, Number of Volumes t.|, Place Published|, Publisher, coll. « Series Title »|, Year |[Original Publication]|, vol. Volume, p. |Cited Pages.

if I select ‘‘Edit Citation(s)’’, ‘‘More’’ and I write the number of pages in the box ‘‘suffix’’. here is the result: 

Peter Murray et Linda Murray, The art of the Renaissance, New York, Praeger, 2013 [1963], p. 286 p.

Can’t we temporarily remove the ‘‘p.’’ that precedes the numbers?

I changed my Reference Type like you proposed, but it doesn’t work anymore. The letter ‘‘p’’ still appears.

That’s what I was afraid of. This means that I have to go through all the chapters of my thesis, check all the footnotes and change from the ‘‘Edit Citation(s)’’ menu the information about the page numbers. From this menu, remove for each footnote all that appears in the box ‘‘pages’’ and enter the information in the box ‘‘suffix’’ by adding the letter ‘‘p’’ before or after the number as appropriate, without forgetting to modify the ‘‘References Types’’ and remove the ‘‘Cited pages’’. A enormous work!

I think the best solution in my case is to modify my style from the menu ‘‘Output Styles’’/ ‘‘Footnotes’’ / ‘‘Reference Types’’ and change the end of the sequence of each reference (book, section of books, etc.) and replace the  (, p. Cited Pages|.) by  (, Cited Pages|.) . With this solution, I can add the letter ‘‘p.’’ according to my needs…I hope
