Philadelphia: Fortress; Atlanta: Scholars Press, 1986. When there are multiple pages: Attridge, Harold A. ...

Conditional use of Page or Pages

I need to render the word Page when one page is referenced or Pages when multiple pages are referenced.

Code: Select all

$p. ^pp. $p-
The example above renders the logic, and now I am trying to figure out how to replace p and pp, respectively, with page and pages.

Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Re: Multiple Last Names

I finally got some feedback from my supervisor: “Van” is always a part of the surname, so Frederick Van Zyl Slabbert in a works cited list becomes: Van Zyl Slabbert, Frederick. Here is some additional guidance: Afrikaans and French surnames with prefixes like Le, Van, Du, etc. are entered under the ...

Re: Multiple Last Names

You guessed correctly, I am using SBL. I have the SBL 2nd edition and could not find a definitive answer yet so I have punted this to my supervisor for review. I have learned that Slabbert is considered a last name on its own in South Africa and it's plausible that Van Zyl may be a middle name, Van ...

Re: Multiple Last Names

Incidentally, "van" in Afrikaans means surname and this is from a South African author so the lower case on the "van" may be appropriate. Hmmm, something for me to consider before making my final submission.

Multiple Last Names

Good morning, I can seem to find on the forum or figure out how to enter an author with spaces in their last name. For example, I have an author - Frederick Van Zyl Slabbert - who shows up incorrectly in my citations and bibliography as Slabbert. I recently switched over to Bookends so am still lear...

Re: Scan a document popup when inserting citation

The fix was to turn off Live Bibliography. However, there was also something wrong with the document, according to Mellel, and after creating a new document, the issue went away.

Re: Scan a document popup when inserting citation

UPDATE - if I turn off "Live Update" in the bibliography panel in Mellel the popup goes away until I do a manual scan when I am ready to generate my citations and bibliography. No other solution has presented itself at this time.

Re: Scan a document popup when inserting citation

I have rebuilt my bibliography, rebuilt my Mellel document, created new for both, and still, this issue persists. I am wondering if the latest security update from Apple is somehow affecting this because that is what has changed since yesterday, hmmm?!? Attached is the popup that occurs every time I...
