I am using zotero for chicago style 17th ed author-note RTF to make a bibliography and the bibliography is incorrect. It writes n.d. when there is a date, and all of the accessed dates are the date I made my bibliography, not the actual date I accessed it. I emailed the company and am waiting for a reply. Are you familiar with zotero and this error and how to fix it? I've been looking online and still cannot figure it out.
Thank you,

You can see where it says n.d. and where it says Accessed June 23, 2020 for each source. I was wondering if there was an option where Zotero recognizes the actual publication date.

Also make sure that you're actually citing the Zotero item, not just a file (as appears to be the case for the Researchgate file.
