Extra "1978-Present" added to Journal title

bsol
I cannot figure out how this is happening, but I want to have a reference look like this:

[3] A. Yoshimura, R. K. Prud’homme, J. Rheol. 1988, 32, 53.

But rather it looks like this:

[3] A. Yoshimura, R. K. Prud’homme, J. Rheol. 1978-Present 1988, 32, 53.

I don't want it to display "1978-Present." In fact, this isn't anywhere in the Zotero entry, so I'm not sure how it is being generated.

I am using Word 2011 for Mac.

Thanks!

    This looks like an error in the journal abbreviation list Zotero uses if I had to guess. What does it say in the Publication field in Zotero?
  • bsol
    Publication: Journal of Rheology

    This won't be a quick fix, unfortunately.
    You have two options:
    1) you just fix this manually
    2) you uncheck the "automatically abbreviate journal titles" box under set document preferences in the Word add-on. Note, though, that this means journal titles won't get abbreviated at all if you don't have the abbreviation in the Journal Abbr. field in Zotero.

    Ok.

    By manually do you mean just editing it in the Word document? Only problem is if I refresh the entries it reverts back.
  • adamsmith
    right, you'd fix this last thing before sending it off

    Ok got it thanks!
