Upgrade StorageAMA no "et al." - missing epub date
Hello, I am new to Zotero so I apologize if I am just not in the know. I looked through the forum but didn't seem to find an answer to my problem.
Our center director wants a unique citation style. He would like our publications cited in AMA style with a full list of authors, sorted by epub date, and then alphabetically. We have manually been pulling the AMA citation from pubmed. If the names were too long, we would change to NLM to pull the full author list and paste it into a shared Google Sheet. We would make additional columns for the details that are pulled into Zotero (pre being aware of it's existence with journal name, etc.), but also add a column for epub date so it could easily be sorted by date. I did not see an option when editing a citation to add an epub date.
Is there a way for this information to be included? I have pasted below an example for the same publication. "Published 2026 Mar 3." is missing from the citation generator in Zotero. I am not tied to this exact wording and would be flexible with any availability to include a epub date. If it is not possible to have a date added to the citation, would there at least be a recommendation to add the date somewhere so we can sort it in the columns by the date?

adamsmithZotero doesn't store epub dates and publication dates separately, no. You can sort by publication date, of course, and you can modify the publication date to include the month -- when you import directly from https://karger.com/gdz/article/6/1/94/945612/Prediabetes-in-Children-and-Adults-with-Glomerular it actually does here. But where those differ meaningfully, Zotero only has one relevant date field.
