perfect – thanks

If I can modify the RIS export translator to export the citekey will Bookends be able to pick it up? Is there a specific tag it will need?

Thanks. And yeah I appreciate that Bookends has the ability to generate citekeys, but I have over 5000 references and I'm a bit worried about key changes. I'll check more on the Zotero forums. Thanks again.

Unfortunately I don't see any citekey info included in the RIS file. Here's a sample entry: TY - JOUR TI - You Me and the World AU - Eilan, Naomi T2 - Analysis DA - 2016/// PY - 2016 VL - 76 IS - 3 SP - 311 EP - 324 ER - Here's the original bib file: @article{eilan2016, timestamp = {2016-10-14T18:44...

I'm trying to transition back to Bookends from a few years with Zotero. I need bibtex support so I use better bibtex with zotero. But I'm facing the following problem. I can export from Zotero in a variety of formats that retain attachment paths when imported to Bookends, but lose the citekey info. ...

thanks. that's unfortunate, as it will break a bunch of links to course material that I teach. I guess you can consider this a feature request (it's easy to do in other ref managers like Zotero (which I'm currently using), Jabref, and BibDesk). Thanks for your quick response.

I know that one can rename attachments using a specified, and possibly custom, format. I would like to have all attachments renamed using bibtex citekey, and underscore, and then the (short) title, all lowercase, with spaces replaced with underscores, like so: "dunn2016_iconicity_and_the_format...

Right – will do.

I've downloaded and installed 12.7.6 and haven't seen any changes in the (in)completeness of Google Scholar citations. Sente is still managing to import full info, including full author name, page range, and journal volume and issue number whereas none of this is coming through with Bookends. I unde...

Right. Finally got it working. For whatever reason, I had to make sure that the output returns without a newline. For posterity I had to do the following (my bash is pretty bad, sorry): UUID="{query}" REFNAME=$(/usr/bin/osascript << EOT tell application "Bookends" return «event T...

Hi Jon,

"m" isn't a field that I can get using "return «event ToySRFLD»" and the Bookends #id in applescript. Is there a different event value I'd use? Or is this just for format editing and not applescript? Thanks.

I was wondering if there is a way to query Bookends concerning the path or location of an attachment for a reference given a UUID number? Maybe something along the lines of return «event ToySRFLD» "$UUID" given string:"?" If I put "attachment" in the string value I get ...

Thanks Jon. I'll re-download, and look forward to the update.

I know people have posted about using Google Scholar for import before. But I was wondering whether I'm doing something wrong. When I import form Google scholar I don't get the author's full first name, the volume and issue number of the journal the article appears in, or the page numbers of the art...
