Following up on the CF posts from yesterday. Still can't get this to work. I edited the Zotero output to put Publishers prior to Authors to see if that made a difference, and received this interesting result. It's the first time I have been able to get authors to show up. Hoping it's a clue to the problem.

%%tana%%

Here is an edited output including ONLY the title and author info and the resulting screenshot which lists no authors:

Here's another full example using the book chapter supertag:

Here's another example, this time replacing my code with yours for all source status options, authorTag. and authorField.

Here I tried an experiment. First, I will show the original output from Zotero and its result in Tana. Then I will show the experiment: I deleted the "Author(s)::" line, and pasted the author information beneath the Topic(s) line, and it displayed the author properly as a topic.
ORIGINAL

  • Publisher^68nuw_HxwE:: Princeton University #[[organization^_8MjQoFEGw]]
    

EXPERIMENT #2
In a second experiment, I deleted everything in the Zotero output file but title, publisher and author information. In the first example (below), I put the title and publisher data before the author lines. In the second example, I put the author lines first, followed by the title and publisher lines. It made a difference.

Hi Joshua,
Thank you so much for this incredible tool!

I have no coding experience, so I was wondering if you could give me some simple instructions for how to change the top-level node in Tana (upon pasting copied Zotero metadata) to show citekey rather than title?

For instance, at the moment, it's showing:

I'd like the node which is tagged "#paper (Tanarian brain)" to show the citekey instead.

Thanks!

Notes / quotes captured in Zotero should be an option to include with the bibliographic export.

I am completely and totally flummoxed. This tool has worked great until this one specific paper that I need it to work for right now and .... nada. I tried it on others, and it worked fine. I tried restarting Zotero and nada. Switched between Zotero 6 & 7, and still nada. If I switch back to betterbibtex then I get something. I am at a total loss.

Here is the paper in question.
