Hello there @juancarloscastillo, Hope you're doing well! Getting your debug log is a breeze and will save us both time in getting your problem resolved or the new feature you'd like implemented. Trust me, it's way quicker than discussing why it's important. 😃 How to Share Your Debug Log:
Once you hit that submit button, you'll get a special red debug ID. Just share that with By sharing your debug log, you're giving We totally get that your time is valuable, and we appreciate your effort in helping Thanks a bunch! PS: If the Debug Log menu does not appear, or it does not send the debug log A fallback option is available under "Help" > "Send debug log to file.io". |
You're asking my time but can't be bothered to make a few mouse clicks to make that time spent efficiently, or even write out why you think (wrongly) that I don't need a debug log. The issue will automatically reopen when you post a debug log. |
Actually, I took the time for the few mouse clicks but the program freezed and I could not move forward in generating the log, therefore I tried to detail the issue as clear as possible. After your message, I thought that maybe this was because I had to install a previous version in order to solve my issue; so, I installed again the new version and the debug log worked well. The debug log ID is 2KZZJD5R-refs-euc/6.7.177-6 I uploaded the produced files: Thanks in advance for your time. |
Which is a more useful explanation than
no need, that's what the debug log is for. I have a toolchain that (among other things) makes ready-to-run testcases from debug log IDs so that I don't have to copy-paste, download, put in the right place etc. All sources of errors. I agree that what is put in
but from your description, you want single linebreaks to show up as-is, which as far as LaTeX is concerned is the same as a space, which is equivalent to the current output. |
🤖 this is your friendly neighborhood build bot announcing test build 6.7.177.2849.6095 ("compromises all around") This update may name other issues, but the build just dropped here is for you; it just means problems already fixed in other issues have been folded into the work we are doing here. Install in Zotero by downloading test build 6.7.177.2849.6095, opening the Zotero "Tools" menu, selecting "Add-ons", open the gear menu in the top right, and select "Install Add-on From File...". |
I'd appreciate feedback on the change. |
Did it previously have back-ticks around the triple-dash? I'm not sure how that ever came about. |
Previously there were no back-ticks around the triple dash, but now I am adding the backslashes in the extra field and I can see them in the bibtex, then you very much. |
The reason I asked is that in your original message, you said you were previously getting
and I can't explain how those back-ticks around the
That also shouldn't be the case, if you just take the item you sent in
without you adding backslahses in the extra field. If you are adding backslashes in the extra field, you should see those show up as |
I added the backticks to the --- because otherwise they were transformed into a line in the preview of the message, but I get the three dashed without backticks.

Ah OK I see.
single linebreaks should show up as
Latest as in latest release? Or the latest version dropped here? If latest release -- please try latest version dropped here. If latest version dropped here -- please send a debug log. |
Now I tried with the latest-latest and it works perfectly. Thank you very much. |

What happened?
I have a problem with the newest version of BBT regarding including three dahes (---). in the extra field. Before (at least with version 6.7.132) when generating the bibtex file it reflected there the line breaks before and after them, but in the new version it eliminates the line breaks. The need for the line breaks it relates with a script I use that generates markdown files from the bibtex entries (https://jc-castillo.com/post/zotero-academic/) , therefore I need the --- in a different line in the bibtex, as it is specified in the extra field.
I installed the previous BBT version and it works fine, but I hope this could also work in the current and future versions.
This is how it is rendered with the previous version, reflecting the extra field (annotation in bibtex) correctly:
And here with the newest one, eliminating the line breaks before and after:
Thanks in advance, wonderful work with this Zotero add-on!
