Need DATE field for Podcasts
We definitely need a DATE field for the Podcast type. Some podcasts don't number their episodes but rather identify them by the date they were released. Think of a podcast episode like a blog entry, each episode has a date, and sometimes that's how they're identified.

I have Zotero for Windows 4.0.9 and the Word plug-in 3.1.13 and I use MHRA author-date style.
There is no date field for podcasts, nor does the episode number appear in the bibliography.
Anything I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
If not, and it's still planned for 4.2, how can I get round this problem for now? i.e. is there a way to insert the date and episode number in some other field or something that would make it *look* like it should on paper (even if it is not in the correct field in the system)?
At the moment it looks like this:
West, Ashley. [n.d.-a]. Annie Sprinkle: The Early Years, The Rialto Report
---. [n.d.-b]. John Amero and ‘Body of a Female’, The Rialto Report
I can do without the contributor information, and perhaps even the running time (although isn't that kind of important?) for now, but the date and episode numbers really need to be included somehow. Any suggestions for how to include them for the time being?
Thanks.
Thanks again.
I'm using Zotero to create references in APA Style. Podcast references require the date as Year, Month Day and the title in italics.
Record types Podcast, Radio Broadcast and Web Page enable required date format, but title is not in italics. Records type Audio Recording has the title in italics, but the date as Year only. So have to advise users to change title after reference creation.
Is there a work-around? Thanks in anticipation.
An "audio recording" could very well be unpublished raw material sitting in an archive or in a drawer, on tape or vinyl or some such, with limited accessibility. This is why, correctly, it has such fields as place, location in archive, label and call number. A researcher would want this kind of information to trace the source.
A podcast is a finished, published work, with producers, a name, a date, a distribution channel of some kind, and so forth. Usually, it's part of a larger "show," which has its own title. Its closest cousin is the radio broadcast, as these two media are rapidly converging. If anything, I'd say, radio production is becoming a special case of podcasting (where the work in question also happens to be aired on the radio). Historically, of course, podcasts are a derivative form, but structurally they are the parent type, as almost all major radio programs are now also available as podcasts.
And eventually, it would be nice to have a related item type -- "segment" -- analogous to "book section."
type: broadcast
issued: 2018
For Producer, the issue is that a “producer” role doesn’t currently exist in the Citation Style Language. I personally recommend just listing all of the cited creators as “Podcaster” and ignoring the labels. This is generally how such references actually appear in APA journals. If you do want the label, enter the producer as Podcaster and then type (Producer) after the first name. This will show up correctly in the reference list for APA.
In itemtype "broadcast" and in itemtype "podcast" I type it in to the Extra field and nothing happens in either citation or bibliography when I choose APA and insert to word.
type: broadcast
issued: 2018
Still no type:broadcast anywhere in the reference. A bit strange that only one of them appeared?
Is there a list of commands (such as type: and issued:) to be used to add other kinds of information in the extra field?
Regarding hastebin: I am able to find and export RDF in Zotero, but that generates a file and I have now idea how to paste that in to hastebin. Sorry:) Is there some other way to export RDF?
No need for pasting the RDF to hastebin then, but should you need/want to do so in the future, you'd open the exported file with a text editor like notepad or TextEdit, select all, copy, and paste to hastebin.
