n.d. instead of "accessed, month, day, year
I have the date accessed in the Zotero item information but it does not show up in the citation, and endnote in CMS full note:
“A Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of the State of Mississippi from the Federal Union”, n.d., http://avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/csa_missec.asp
What is the fix?

immediate solution is to enter a regular date.
I'm still not sure I understand how to fix the other problem, the appearance of "n.d." What exactly is the "date" of a web site, if not the date it was accessed? How does one omit the "n.d."?
Zotero has a field for that - if you fill something in that field, you won't get the n.d. but rather that date.
If you can't find a time stamp, it's probably correct to use the access date, which is the question discussed in the other thread.
"Also include a publication date or date of revision or modification (see 14.8); if no such date can be determined, include an access date (see 14.7)."
so yes, we should do what Frank says above, but also you should try to find a publication or revision date on the website which is preferred to an accessed date by CMS.
