@blekm - nope, that is all it does. And it was a relatively recent enhancement to integrate with calibre's apnx generation feature so that rather than using calibre's own algorithm for determining pages (which is not as robust as the one in this plugin) it could instead pull the value from a custom column, which you may have populated using this plugin, or may have set manually, it doesn't care.
So once you have configured a custom column, given it a value (manually or using this plugin), configured the Kindle plugin as per the special notes, and then used Send to Device to put the book on your Kindle, you should find a .apnx file on your Kindle in the same folder as the book, and that is what the kindle uses to display page counts.
If you are not using Send to Device and just drag/dropping mobi files, or you have disabled the apnx generation on the Kindle plugin in calibre, then you won't get page counts. That is all I can suggest, otherwise post in the calibre device subforum, because as I say this plugin really has nothing to do with displaying page counts on a Kindle or indeed any other device.
