I am working on updating my custom format to conform to the SBL (2nd ed.) format. While working on the format, I found that the @ sign seems to do 2 different things: it can represent the cited page (User Guide pg.262), or in the "Special characters" dropdown in the format manager, the @ sign represents the Unique ID number.
Just trying to figure out which is correct.

Re: The @ sign in custom formats
When @ was repurposed the symbol for referring to the unique id number in a format was changed to =. If you see a place in the app or in the documentation where that change wasn't made please let me know.

Re: The @ sign in custom formats
What version of Bookends are you running? In the 13.2.3 Formats Manager Special Characters popup @ is assigned to Cited Pages and = is assigned to unique id number.
