I have a problem with getting the page number on the ‘first’ page of a chapter (in my setup, it is actually the second page as there is a LHS page before it with a quote. The bare minimum example:

\setuplayout[location=doublesided]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\setuphead[chapter]
  [page=,
   header=empty,
   footer=chpaterfooter,
   sectionsegments=chapter,
   before={\setups[chapter:before]}]

\startsetups chapter:before
    \page[left]
    \noheaderandfooterlines
    \startalignment[left,nothyphenated]
    \startnarrower[4*left]
\em \getbuffer[chapter:quote]
    \stopnarrower
    \stopalignment
    \page[right]
\stopsetups

\starttext
\startbuffer [chapter:quote]

\stopbuffer

\chapter[h:one]{One}
\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par \input knuth}

\chapter[h:two]{Two}
\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par \input knuth}

\stoptext

What I think I need is a way to move the page number from header to footer for just the current page (immediately after \page[right]) in this setup. 

Or a way to move the page number from header to footer on any current page.

My double-sided layout starts each chapter on a right page with a quote on the opposing left page. I’d like to move the page number of that right page to the footer, but haven’t been able to find how to do this is the documentation. How can I do this?

\definetext
  [chapterfooter] % name
  [footer]        % vertical location
  [pagenumber]    % content

\setuphead
  [chapter]
  [header=empty,
   footer=chapterfooter]

\starttext

\dorecurse{4}
  {\expanded{\chapter{Chapter \recurselevel}}
   \dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{lorem}}}

\stoptext

Yes, this works in a simple setup. But it doesn’t work in mine with my LHS-quote/RHS-chapterstart setup using before and after on setup head.

Try this:

\setuplayout[location=doublesided]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\definetext
  [chapterfooter] % name
  [footer]        % vertical location
  [pagenumber]    % content

\setuphead[chapter]
  [page=,
   header=empty,
   footer=chpaterfooter,
   sectionsegments=chapter,
   before={\setups[chapter:before]},
   after={\setups[chapter:after]}]

\startsetups chapter:before
    \page[left]
    \noheaderandfooterlines
    \startalignment[left,nothyphenated]
    \startnarrower[4*left]
        \em \getbuffer[chapter:quote]
    \stopnarrower
    \stopalignment
    \resetsetups[quote:text]
    \page[right]
    \blank[force,2*big]
\stopsetups

\startsetups chapter:after
    \blank[3*big]
\stopsetups

\definelist[chaptertext]
\setuplist[chaptertext][margin=1.3em,pagecommand=\gobbleoneargument]
\define[1]\ChapterAbstract{\writetolist[chaptertext]{}{\start\itx#1\stop}}

\starttext
\startbuffer [chapter:quote]

{\tf Brian Foote and Joseph Yoder}
\stopbuffer

\chapter[h:one]{One}
\ChapterAbstract{This is chapter abstract 1.}

\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par \input knuth}

\chapter[h:two]{Two}
\ChapterAbstract{This is chapter abstract 2.}

\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte \par \input knuth}

\stoptext
