Has anyone else experienced this? When I copy and paste into Word, Logos no longer creates an automatic footnote citation. I think it happened when I updated to Monterey. My settings look correct.
Welcome to the forums. Can you provide a screen shot of you program settings re:footnotes? I don't have the problem on the PC. BTW it is best to post in either the desktop or the mobile forums so we know we're answering for the correct software.
Thank you,
I posted the wrong screenshot before. Let me try that again.
Also, I am using a MacBook Pro M1 Pro 14 inch, so I'm running the desktop app.
I have the same settings as you, and it works for me.
Directions:
Thx man.
Still not working for me.
macOS 12.0.1
MacBook Pro M1 Pro 14 inch, 2021
Logos 9.9.0.0016
Word 16.55
I follow all those steps. shrug*
On November 22, there was an update (9.10 Beta 2) that "Fixed a bug that incorrectly formatted Bible citations when using the SBL 2nd Ed citation style." I am using the latest update Beta 3 (9.10.0.0007) on a MacAir using Monterey. The citations are still broken. I get author and title, pages, but no publisher information. I have tried SBL 2.0, APA7 and MLA8, all with the same result.
For example, pasting from the LBD, the SBL citation is now:
Jason C. Kuo, “Thessalonians, First Letter to the,” The Lexham Bible Dictionary.
It ought to be:
Jason C. Kuo, “Thessalonians, First Letter to the,” ed. John D. Barry et al., The Lexham Bible Dictionary. Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press, 2016.
I notice the truncated citation is also in the information section of the Library window (where you can just copy/paste the bibliography info)

I am unsure how is this related to the OP. Am I missing something?

Thanks for reporting this bug. I've created a case for it.
Mac's system security settings sometimes prevents this from working properly.
Try this:
I think it wouldn't hurt to make sure Word has a check box as well.
Thank you Adam! That fixed it!
So happy that's fixed.
Interestingly, the boxes were already checked, but I still had to "add" them (by pressing the + button and searching for them in applications) before it worked.
Thanks again!

I switched to SBL1 and the citation is correct, SLB2 seems to be the one that is broken. Thanks...

Thanks for the report, Phillip. This was a problem specifically Bible dictionaries, that has been fixed in beta 4.
Thanks Adam, I updated to beta 4 this morning and I have restarted Logos twice. When SBL 2.0 is selected, I still get the truncated citations (no editors as it has in the past). Prior to Beta 2, when LBD pasted in as Ed. John Barry, et al.; the AYBD should have D. N Freedman.
Here is what it looks like with Beta 4:
David P. Melvin, “Apocalypticism, Early Jewish,” The Lexham Bible Dictionary (Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press, 2016).
Jon Paulien, “Nicodemus (Person),” The Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary 1105 (New York: Doubleday, 1992).
SBL 1 is working fine still, so it is not really a burning issue for me.
Probably another request: Is there any way the AYBD (or any other multi-volume work) can have the volume number included?
Hi Phillip—I’m an editor with Faithlife’s publishing house, Lexham Press. Adam looped me into this conversation about citation styles. SBLHS 2 does allow for a much-abbreviated version of citations in footnotes, especially for dictionaries (see examples in SBLHS 6.3.6–7). However, we agree with you that a more comprehensive version of the citations would be helpful—it’s easier for the user to abbreviate the available information in the footnote than to add it. We’re working on that update now.
