@frigidilius, abbreviations are very much on my personal radar. The SBL style for Zotero currently lets you do this for when you need a full series name sometimes and an abbreviated one other times. I think this is essentially identical to what you'…
-
Thanks, @tim820. Finding the individual PDFs seems pretty straightforward on the basis of your search's output since Zotero indexes the file names that are displayed in the search results. So, that's definitely a large step simpler than the process …
-
@tim820, that's exactly the core of what I've been trying to do. Thanks so much. Is there any way for us that you're aware of to get this JavaScript query output to pull into something like a saved folder?
-
Thanks, @adamsmith, though @haraldaa, SBL style wouldn't want the "#" portion. They're calling for just "art. 4590" in your example. So this would equate to "number: 4905" in Extra. Glad to hear you're finding this additional accommodation in the st…
-
This citation format is now addressed in the style as of this update.

Okay, thanks for the tip, @dstillman. Unfortunately, even if I put everything entirely in a local folder that's not synced in any way (e.g., the desktop), the same issue recurs. I have for the present been able to get what I need from picking throug…

Ok, thanks. I'm only able to get debug output with the -jsconsole or -console options. Here's what I got when running "C:\Users\davidst\Dropbox\Apps\Zotero Beta\zotero.exe" -ZoteroDebugText -console > error.txt. Thanks so much for having a look …
-
@adamsmith, sorry I was out of the office and am just now seeing this. But yes, SBL style does want short titles for everything (though there might be an odd exception I'm not thinking of at the moment). And thanks for remedying the error. @JFJW, @…

Just in case others come across this thread with something similar, I think I've finally stumbled across how I was running Word, Zotero, or sometimes both as an administrator, which I see is a no-no. Since I've been making sure that isn't happening,…
-
Resolved in this thread.

Ah, yep. My bad. Apparently I did have the report customizer installed and enabled on the Windows 10 machine and overlooked that in my own troubleshooting. :-( Sure enough installing it on the Windows 11 machine produces the same output. Thanks so …
-
@adamsmith, since Zotero already "knows" about (non-)dropping particles, would it be possible to consider 1) adding support for capitalizing these particles similarly to what's already in place for capitalizing (or not) "ibid." and then 2) using …
-
Thanks, @timwr820. I was thinking of doing something like that. But I've instead decided to go with a saved search based on a system of tags in Zotero that'll let me know whether I've moved a given items attachments or not. Took a few tries to get i…

@Grumpy64, if you use "Annote: " in Extra, you can follow that up with "ANF" "NPNF 1/" or "NPNF 2/" and get the appropriate custom abbreviation that SBL style is wanting for these sources. You can then add the particular source from those works (e.g…
-
Good question. I've been wondering the same kind of thing. :-)
-
@Grumpy64, specifically what ancient documents (or collections of them) are you wanting to cite? That would be helpful in thinking through the SBL Handbook-Zotero interaction. @adamsmith, it looks to me like §6.1.4.5 that @Grumpy64 quotes above is …
-
@tremolophage and @frigidilius, a better solution is being considered here if you want to watch the progress. @bwiernik, it might be playing too lose with the "book" item type, but to identify this situation, could we perhaps give a "part-title" at…
-
This issue seems to persist in Zotero 6.0.4. For additional discussion, see also this Github thread with @bwiernik.
-
@dstillman, sadly, the choice to enable all macros doesn't seem to stop the integration from breaking (with the latest Zotero beta and the latest version of Word for Microsoft 365). So, I'm back to doing the 4-step process I mentioned in my last pos…
-
@Juanbro and @dstillman, I'm not sure if this is related or not, but I've been having an issue that sounds similar. Things will be humming along fine citing with Zotero in Word for Windows (10 and 11). But then, seemingly inexplicably, I won't be a…
-
This is one case where I'm not sure CSL/Zotero can do exactly what SBLHS2 is asking for. You can get close by using some rich text markup in the title and short title fields. But that'll still give you quotation marks around the title—if you use the…
-
@frigidilius, I didn't think to ask when you emailed, but is the British punctuation requirement something that you've found in one of the style authorities from SBL Press (including the Chicago Manual and Turabian where SBL style relies on them)? O…
-
That works for me as well, @timvangelder.
-
Got that sent in yesterday afternoon, @adomasven. Thanks so much for inviting the samples!
-
As an update to this, I am able to get a bibliography in the proper font in a new document and in some other existing documents. The bibliography style is the same across all of them (I've even deleted and merged it back into the document that was m…
-
@adomasven, sure. Here's a short walkthrough first with updating an existing citation with a couple different styles (SBL and Chicago full note), then with creating a new citation in a completely new document. If I can provide anything else, please…
-
Thanks, @adomasven, and my apologies for the ambiguity. I'm not using the classic citation dialog. I'm simply using the default dialog (red outlined box) to change " n. " to "n" and vice versa in the locator field so as to avoid custom edits both in…
-
@adomasven I agree the best method of handling this kind of change would be via the citation style. But it's my understanding that it's not possible to do so at present. Though, if that's incorrect, I'd be more than happy for any guidance about impl…
-
I seem to be having the same issue as well, but I've only noticed it since the latest beta update (to 5.0.97-beta.50+5f61ac23a). For me, it doesn't appear necessary to insert a new citation for the bibliography to change fonts. Simply refreshing the…
