Not all authors showing in publication

    Hi,

    I have a quick question about the Zotero plugin. One of my publications has 8 authors but not all of them show after I pull in the respective citation with the plugin on my website (see link). It shows authors #1 to #6, author #7 is omitted (“…”) and author #8 shows up again.

    I assume there is an if statement somewhere in the code handling this logic and if there are more than 7 authors, the ones between #6 and #n get omitted.

    Is there a way to prevent the omission? I’d like to show all authors, despite the rather lengthy list of names.

    Thanks ??
    Markus

    The bibliography is built on the Zotero side, so this is likely how the style you’re using handles long author lists. Quick way to find out is to use a different style temporarily and see if all the authors are presented.

    Thanks for the quick reply. And you’re right, the APA style handles long author lists like that ?? https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/06/

    My bad. Here I was using this citation style for years and never came across this particular scenario. Thanks again though!

    Cheers,
