Thanks for the info.

And yes, CMS = Chicago Manual of Style.

Title Omission in Subsequent Citations

I currently have a problem with how subsequent citations are displayed. Using CMS footnotes, the first footnote looks something like this:

Michael Mercep, et al., “Activation-induced apoptosis,â€

THAT is what "Edited Book" is for! That makes so much more sense. Of course, if I have duplicated 20 chapters from this edited book and later find out there was a mistake in the original, I have to go and manually change everything again. So, I still think the feature request still makes s...

Sharing Book Edited?

As a new feature request, would it be possible to share a given book? As in, for edited books or chapters within books (pretty much the same), there can be multiple sections that I may want to cite from the same book. I don't like having to manually copy and paste all the info from one reference to ...

Reprint Dates

So, in CMS, I am trying to cite something that has an original publishing date and a reprint date and I want to get both of them. So, I need something like: John Doe, This is my book (Chicago: University of Chicago, 2000 [1956]), 35-50. However, if I fill the date field with something like "200...

Hmm.. that's what I was afraid of. My thesis advisor is a Chicago grad and stickler for CMS -- any minor error and he knocks off a point or two. The unfortunate thing about the Mellel-Bookends combo is if I modify something, post-process, and then add another citation later on -- it all gets undone....

CMS Citation in Footnote

I am following the Chicago Manual of Style and when a reference is made within a footnote, instead of the standard format: John Doe, My Book (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1970), 41. the citation is suppose to be enclosed in another set of parentheses: (John Doe, My Book [Cambridge, MA: H...

"Don't enclose final citation" and Mellel Prob

Hi all... I've been trying to figure out the Mellel integration with Bookends and have noticed a problem.. the "Don't enclose final citation" does not seem to work. I check the box, append something like: \, 289.\ to the end of it, produce a Chicago 15th footnotes, and I still get the peri...
