Can not work with REVTEX 4.2

Open xuey06 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I export my libraries to Better-bibtex. While, it can not compile successfully with REVTEX 4.2 template. The REVTEX 4.2 template can be found in: https://journals.aps.org/revtex/revtex-faq. Thanks for reply.

It looks like you did not upload an support log. The support log is important; it gives @retorquere your current BBT settings and a copy of the items under consideration as a test case so he can best replicate your issue, or build towards the desired behavior. Without it, @retorquere is effectively blind. Support logs are useful for both analysis and for enhancement requests; in the case of export enhancements, I need the copy of the references you have in mind.

If you did try to submit a support log, but the ID looked like D<number>, that is a Zotero debug report, which I cannot access. Please re-submit a BBT debug log by one of the methods below.

This request is much more likely than not to apply to you too @xuey06, even if you think it unlikely. Please trust @retorquere when he says he will usually need one; he will more often than not just end up saying "please send a debug log". Let's just skip over the unnecesary delay this entails. Sending a debug log is very easy:

  1. If your issue relates to how BBT behaves around a specific reference(s), such as citekey generation or export, select at least one of the items(s) under consideration, right-click it, and submit an BBT support log from that popup menu. If the problem is with export, please do include a sample of what you see exported, and what you expected to see exported for these references.

  2. If the issue does not relate to references and is of a more general nature, generate an support log by restarting Zotero with debugging enabled (Help -> Debug Output Logging -> Restart with logging enabled), reproducing your problem, and selecting "Send Better BibTeX debug report..." from the help menu.

Once done, you will see a debug ID in red. Please post that debug id in the issue here.

Thank you!

As the bot predicted: I'll need a support log for the items that you use in the template, and please attache the actual document you are trying to compile. I don't know what you took from the revtex docs.
