That was really helpful. Thank you so much for your help @rhwork
-
That'd be really helpful. Thanks. My email is johnduffy at cgcf.ie.

Thanks @rhwork I've tried to use a Visual CSL editor, but wasn't able to find one where I could follow your instructions. I tried editing the code directly, but wasn't successful. I'll just leave it for now and edit the few entries that have a dif…

The SBL Handbook of Style 2nd edition (society-of-biblical-literature-fullnote-bibliography)

@rhwork Thanks, I'd appreciate you sharing how you did that. I'd like to try that since I prefer getting the csl to work, rather than having to convert the citations to plain text afterwards and make manual edits.
-
rhwork, would you mind sharing your edits to the style for original-title, as I'm trying to do the same with SBL2, but I'm not as proficient with editing csl code. It'd be much appreciated.

Scroll to the bottom of the list of fields and you'll see the Extra field. Add a line in the Extra field with the following (changing the text after the colon and space to suit the resource concerned): Medium: Nook edition Then click on any other …

Each time I move the "Medium..." line to the bottom of the three, it doesn't pick it up. Although when I use other modifiers in the Extra field, at the bottom of the other content, there's never a problem, as you note there shouldn't be. Here are…

That's brilliant. I've got that working now. Thanks. I did note, however, that if there are multiple lines in the Extra field, I need to put "Medium: Nook edition" as the first line. It wasn't picked up when it was the third line. That's a far bette…

Ah, I didn't realise that your link was a modified style to be downloaded. I thought you were pointing the previous poster to the existing stylesheet code to try to edit it. However, having just tried it out, I found that it doesn't work as needed…

I thought that I'd follow up on the posts today and try a few things to see if I could find a suitable workaround, especially since I've an essay to do soon. I began with a suggestion from a friend, which was to use the URL field for the electronic …
-
The steps outlined in the posts are what are needed. What I have is the main Zotero folder not sync'd between computers, which means that the Zotero and BBT databases aren't sync'd. Syncing databases can cause errors, so best not to sync them. BBT…

Thanks everyone. For my last essay I moved the DOI to the extra field, to retain it but not have it apoear in the footnotes or bibliography. But I'll consider keeping it for future essays. I'll chat with the faculty also to see what their practice o…
-
Thanks. That is helpful, although I'm a bit surprised that I'd need to include the DOI if it is a print book in digital form, with pages shown in facsimile format with page numbers which looks just like the hard copy.
-
Thanks adamsmith. I now understand. Although with the DOIs being presented as URLs that can be a little confusing. However, I would have expected the same behaviour (the unticked tickbox suppressing DOIs) for print journals which have page ranges …
-
That's great. Thanks again.
-
Thanks emilianoeheyns. That confirms that I shouldn't place the BBT files/database in a sync folder. That's just what I needed to know. So, I understand that the only folder I need to be sync'd using a cloud sync solution then is the Zotfile folde…
-
That's helpful. Thanks Iillemets. I wonder, do I even need the Bibtex folders to be sync'd? What purpose do they have after the citation key is generated?
-
Thanks for your detailed reply. That looks really interesting, as a standalone alternative to Logseq. I've struggled to get it working, as I can't open the Preview pane, and there is no option under File to 'Import note'. I'll probably try agai…

Hi, having used Zotero for quite some time I'm getting up to speed with how to integrate it with Logseq. I've added ZotFile to move attachments, and also BetterBibTex in Zotero. I haven't installed Logseq yet, though. My question is, how does [Zot…
-
Hi, yes, I do, and did. However, while working on the same Word document now, all of a sudden second citations are shortened. I don't understand how that happened. I had changed styles, done everything I could think of, and nothing worked. But as …

I've made a comment on another discussion (http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/1262/pdf-highlighting-and-sticky-notes/#Comment_105462), but saw this one and thought that I'd expand on it here. Highlighting and comments can be made in pdfs store…
-
I've found two ways to add highlighting and notes to pdfs in Zotero. The first was a workaround, which was to drag the pdf to an external folder, open it, make changes, save it, and drag it back into the entry in Zotero, and delete the origina…
-
Highlighting and annotations can be made and saved in a pdf and stored in Zotero. While it cannot be done directly in Zotero, as a workaround I've found it helpful to drag the selected pdf to a folder, open and edit that copy, then drag it ba…

Just some more feedback... I too have this problem with Word 2010 on Windows 7 64bit, dragging into either Word or an email using Outlook. It's especially problematic in 'draft' view (which I normally use) as the text goes off screen to the le…

adamsmith, thanks for the tip on saving searches. However, that doesn't allow me to look at only books (or journals, etc) while I'm navigating from one collection to another. All results appear together. I understand the costs etc in adding…

arggem, thanks for your tips. 1) What you suggest is better than what I'm doing at present - I hadn't got the Type column visible beforehand. But if I'm working on journal articles through a lot of collections, I have to navigate down past a…
