Hey,

One of my professors likes to number his problems as if the homework was really one giant homework, instead of multiple weekly assignments. As in, problem 1 on homework 2 is really problem 7 for example.

I noticed that the header still says problem 1 on the first page instead of problem x, though the problem numbers are correct from the second page onwards.

It's not a biggie, but hopefully, it can be fixed soon :)

@kiarashgl can you give that a try?

You just need to add the following line:

        \nobreak\extramarks{Problem \arabic{homeworkProblemCounter}}{}\nobreak{}

Into the homeworkProblem environment definition here:

%
% Homework Problem Environment
%
% This environment takes an optional argument. When given, it will adjust the
% problem counter. This is useful for when the problems given for your
% assignment aren't sequential. See the last 3 problems of this template for an
% example.
%
\newenvironment{homeworkProblem}[1][-1]{
    \ifnum#1>0
        \setcounter{homeworkProblemCounter}{#1}
        \nobreak\extramarks{Problem \arabic{homeworkProblemCounter}}{}\nobreak{}
    \fi
    \section{Problem \arabic{homeworkProblemCounter}}
    \setcounter{partCounter}{1}
    \enterProblemHeader{homeworkProblemCounter}
}{
    \exitProblemHeader{homeworkProblemCounter}
}
