Display "Publication" or "Journal Abbr"

lionline
It would be great if the "Publication" or "Journal Abbr" can be added in the middle display window.

    Also, it would be very useful if the "Last author" of a journal article can be displayed.

    I would vote for Year Published.

    My main bib. tool at the moment is JabRef, and I really like
    its interface -- in this instance the point is that the information
    I really want in the middle display window is

    entry type, author (1, 2, or "et al", title, pub year, journal

    would be lovely to be able to change the order as well!

    this may seem cosmetic, but would make a big difference to me.

    Year Published is already an option—click on the right-most icon in the table header to select other fields. You can change the order just be dragging a column name to another location.

    You're right -- I just upgraded from b3r1 to b5r4 and now
    see "Year Published" (but still not Publication or Journal Abbr
    as the main topic of this thread suggests).

    Also, unfortunately, my Zotero database got trashed
    in upgrading -- kind of glad I haven't gone to Zotero as
    my primary bib information yet ... (you'll see a pile of
    bug reports -- until I moved my zotero folder out from under
    it, every time I re-opened Firefox it would generate another
    bug report)

    thanks

    Just upgraded to 1.0.0.rc1, but still lack of Publicaton or Journal Abbr :-(

    Doing research, in my point of view, knowing where a research article is published is very beneficial.

    Please see the note on the Known Issues page. Your database is most likely fine, and we can rebuild it for you if you send it to us (or upload it somewhere).

    Thanks, I rebuilt it according to instructions and that
    did the trick.

    cheers
