the last two footnotes lack an identification of the article.

    @MJ. Smith The citation from the Eerdmans Bible Dictionary is easily explainable. This book simply has not been tagged to include bibliographical information for each article. I have opened a ticket for that to be added.

    The citation from the ISBE is puzzling since it does include bibliographic information for each article. Citation 2 in the Synopsis reflects this, but Citation 4 does not.

    However, when I run the same search in my account, the citation for ISBE is rendered correctly. The error shown in your screenshot might simply be a momentary glitch.

    Please let us know if this behavior recurs. It would also be interesting to hear if other users are also experiencing it.

    One thing I note from MJ's screenshot is that she seems to have two different copies of the 1915 edition of the ISBE.

    I don't see the one mentioned in citation 4 in the Logos catalog

    @MJ. Smith - is it a personal book you have created? Or have I just missed it in the catalog?

    is it a personal book (…)?

    I personally have two of them as well. #4 is the Ages software edition of ISBE 1915 - LLS:14.0.1001 - which people used to know some years ago (I don't remember the details), which doesn't have article citation, #3 is another edition - LLS:INTLBBLDICT1915 - which has article citations.

    Have joy in the Lord! Smile
