Problem : original-date export to biblatex not working
Hi,
I use zotero to manage my bibliography and then I export it to a .bib biblatex file.
I have read here that in order to get the "origdate" field in a .bib exported file, I need to put "original-date:" in the Extra field on Zotero...
But in my exported .bib file I get
note = {original-date: 1972}, ...
instead of
origdate = {1972},
What I am doing wrong ?
Thanks.

tex.origdate: 1972
original-date: 1972 Should work well based on the links below. But I have the same problem as you. Hope @emilianoeheyns could help.
The "solution" of tex.origdate is problematic because the original date is added to the bibtex file but Zotero does not recognize it. So if you use the zotero plugin inside libreoffice or any other word processor, the original date won't be reflected in the citations or references (and the same problem appears when you try to "Create Bibliography from item" inside Zotero).
I am using Zotero 7 with the latest betterbibtex: 6.7.226

“BibTeX” (no Better) is Zotero’s built-in export format intended primarily for data transfer, and it doesn’t extract CSL fields from the Extra field
