Changing the order in Footnotes and Bibliographies
Greetings all,
Long story short, I created a style specific to my school based of the Society of Biblical Literature 2nd ed. stlye since that is the base style we use. The issue is our school style requires that we have the full title for a book in a series in the bibliography but abbreviations in the footnote for the series. SBL Style now just has abbreviations (the old 1st edition style did this). This is impossible with the current fields available in Zotero. So I mapped the foontnote for series to pull from the "abstract" field for the abbreviation while the bibliography pulls from the series title.
What this does, however, is it makes it so that the series title appears before editors and translators in footnotes, which is not the correct order for the style. What I want is to be able to shift what is essentially the abstract field to appear after editors and translators in the footnote style. Is there an easy way to do this? I use a visual CSL editor.
Example:
Current: Paul Joüon, A Grammar of Biblical Hebrew, SubBi 14, trans. T. Muraoka (Roma: Editrice Pontificio Istituto Biblico, 1996).
Proposed Change: Paul Joüon, A Grammar of Biblical Hebrew, trans. T. Muraoka, SubBi 14 (Roma: Editrice Pontificio Istituto Biblico, 1996).
