Quotation marks (single/double)

KristinaJUS

Hi!
Zotero automatically changes my double quotation marks to single quotation marks in the footnotes, can I change this? In the main text I use double quotation marks, and would like to use it in the Zotero footnotes as well. (My document is in british English, and zotero footnote style is OSCOLA)

That's set by the language and a distinction between British and US English. Change that and it should switch.

Thank you! So I need to switch it to US English? When I go to "Document preferences" the language is set as "English (UK)" but it is not possible to select it or change it...

Then you'll need to modify the style. First line where it days default-locale. Switch that to en-US.
See this guide and follow that to make your own style.
