Word plugin bibliography show page number

dhua026
Hi, I'm sure this is answered somewhere, but I cant find it even with good old google, so I apologise beforehand.

I'm using Zotero 1.5 beta and the corresponding Word plugin for IEEE style citation.

My problem is:
I can't find a way to insert the page number into the bibliography.
When I insert the citation, I have specified a page number for it, but when I insert the bibliography, the page number doesn't show up. I tried to edit the bibliography through the "edit bibliographic management" button, but once I added the page number manually and clicked OK, it doesn't show up on the bibliography, after a refresh too.

Anyone encountered this issue or is there a way to do this that I don't know?
Thanks!
Regards,
David.

    Can you give an example of what you'd like to achieve? If you specify a locator (like in your case a page number), it will be used in the in-text citation when you work with author-date styles (e.g. (Doe et al., 2002, p. 6)), but not in the corresponding bibliography entry. As IEEE is a numbered style, the locator won't be shown anywhere.

    Hi, thanks for the reply!

    An example would be:
    body:
    some sentence [1]

    bibliography:
    [1] F. Lastname, Book Title, publisher, 2007.


    I would like the bibliography to show the page number that is used for the citation, so it would look like this instead:
    [1] F. Lastname, Book Title, publisher, 2007, pp. 10-30.


    I've tried to manually edit the bibliography by hand through the management tool, but it doesn't change the bibliography entry, so even if I have added the pp. 10-30 in, this change doesn't show up in the bibliography (after refresh too).

    Thanks for your help!
    Regards,
    David.

    You can achieve what you want by using the chapter item type instead of the book type. Indicate the relevant pages in the info-tab of the item (right-hand column in your Zotero library) and you should be good to go.
