Name and last names
Hello:
I have a problem with Zotero and Spanish authors' metadata.
Spanish authors have one first name, usually no middle name, and two last names (e.g. Fernando Rivas Rebaque, in this article: https://revistas.comillas.edu/index.php/estudioseclesiasticos/article/view/8535)
Whenever I save an article to Zotero, it automatically converts the first of the two last names (Rivas, in the example) into a middle name, and sets the second of the last names (Rebaque) as the author's last name. So, instead of saving the article of the example as: "Rivas Rebaque, Fernando", it saves it as: "Rebaque, Fernando Rivas". So every time I save an article to Zotero I have then to change manually the order of the last names
Is there any way of fixing this?
Thank you very much,
