Bibliography Formatting Issue

Ravin
I am a happy user of Zotero . Zotero has help me and my students enormously. However I have a problem in formatting the bibliography. The multiple sources of the same author is written followed by "________." line. As example:

Dunn, James D. G. Romans Word Biblical Commentary, 38a: Thomas Nelson, 1988.

________. Romans 1-8 Word Biblical Commentary. Dallas, Tex.: Word Books, 1988.

________. Romans 9-16 Word Biblical Commentary. Dallas: Word Books, 1988.

________. "Q1 as Oral Tradition." Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005.

However, in Zotero, I am unable to do this automatically. Every time I have to "unlink" the document and manually I have to feed the lines. Is there better way to do this?

    This is specific to the style you choose. MLA 8th edition already does this, for example. What style guide are you using?

    If you need to add this because you are using a style specific to your class, the CSL attribute to add to the bibliography element is: subsequent-author-substitute="---"

    I am using Turabian 8th Edition (full note). I will try and see. Thanks a Lot!

    Yes, should work there, too

    Yes, I used 8 underscores ("________") in CLS attributes as you said, which perfectly worked. Thanks a lot noksagt and adamsmith for the quick response!
