Sorry, John, but this is only a guess.

This might do what you intend:

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided, location=]
\def\Titlea{The Book Title}
\definestructureconversionset[frontpart:pagenumber][][romannumerals]
\setupheadertexts
        [{\getmarking[title]}]
        [pagenumber]
        [pagenumber]
        [{\Titlea}]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\dorecurse{10}{\title{My Chapter Title}\dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\par}}
\stopfrontmatter
\stoptext

In short, [{\pagenumber}] should read [pagenumber].

Please, provide a minimal sample that shows the issues you’re
confronting with your requiests.

Just in case it might help,


Pablo
