How to include translator/editor in bibliography
Hi, I've just started using Zotero and I'm coming across a major problem.
I'm using MLA citation style, and I can't get the translator's information to show up on the bibliography, even though I've included this information under the "Translator" entry in Zotero. The MLA style requires that you cite the translator, so I'm not sure what's going on.
Thank you.

Thank you.
So, the following is what shows up when I select "generate report" for the entry:
Time and Narrative
Type Book
Author Paul Ricoeur
Translator Kathleen McLaughlin
Translator David Pellauer
Volume 1
Place Chicago and London
Publisher The University of Chicago Press
Date 1984
Date Added 12/16/2020, 9:54:55 PM
Modified 12/19/2020, 5:48:00 PM
And this is the generated bibliography on words:
Ricoeur, Paul. Time and Narrative. The University of Chicago Press, 1984.
Also, thank you very much for your help. I greatly appreciate it.
Ricœur, Paul. Time and Narrative. Translated by Kathleen McLaughlin and David Pellauer, vol. 1, University of Chicago Press, 1984.
But I saw that importing the ISBN into Zotero, e.g., misses volume number and translators. You can test by right-click--> create bibliography on that item, selecting MLA and clipboard and pasting here. I suspect you'll get the same I did.
You could check if you have a duplicate copy in your Zotero library. If not, test with Word in a new document.
It must have conflicted with a previous version of the entry.
