Chicago Style option to forcefully remove url from footnote citation
How can I prevent Zotero from inserting the URL in the citation. There is the option in Preferences, but it only insert if I don't insert the page rage. Is there a way that I can prevent to insert it in any case? My professor do not like having the URL (including DOI) for journals because it cluttered up the footnotes. My professor will accept URL if it is cited something else other than journals. There is journals with DOI, and the non-DOI one that will use long string of url like Proquest, hence the clutter.
Also I am not sure if there is a bug in zotero. It said with the option uncheck, it will include the url in the citation if the page range is not specified. I have few citation with page range and what page it is cited in, it still include the url.

Otherwise, journal articles should not include URLs unless they do not have a page range in Zotero. Adding that should remove it.
While it's possible to change the style to remove all URLs -- including URLified DOIs, that's quite a bit more involved and if you're just writing term papers it's probably quicker to just remove the URLs before sending off the paper.

As you can see, it seem Zotero is ignoring my option and included the URL with the page range. Based on your post, I understand it always included DOI because the citation demand it. I realized on that part. But what about Marschark, it not a DOI link, it is a link to ProQuest. Am I misunderstanding it? Again, English is not my first language.
My zotero version is 5.0.44-beta.1+89d7dad12
That worked for me. Now I only have the DOI in the bibliography.
