This is driving me crazy. I have papers3, and I spent hours (and hours and hours!) developing a CSL style that will work for a journal. I need to create a substitute for an author that has multiple references. I found where to put that, applied it in the bibliography line, the preview in the editor looks exactly how I need it to appear, but when I save it and export it to Papers, it doesn’t do the substitute. At one point I had it working a few days ago when I was just messing around, but now it’s not working. If anyone can help, I would be so, so grateful!
Hi, it’s a bit difficult to help without more details. Can you post a couple of examples of your expected results and the code of your style? By the way, for which journal is that?
Hi! This is for Micropaleontology (micropress.org). As far as I can tell, there is no CSL in the repository, and I can’t find anything that’s similar. I’m pasting what I created all the way at the end. It works as it’s supposed to in Zotero, Mendeley, and the new Papers ReadCube. It does what it’s supposed to in Papers3, except, and this is where it differs from the others, in Papers3, it will not do the substitute subsequent author. I do not want to switch over to using other PDF managers so it is not ideal to just abandon Papers3. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP
This is what it should look like (and get in Zotero, Mendeley, etc.):

BUT, this is what it ends up looking like if using in Papers3:

WHAT I CREATED (I’m new to this so perhaps I’m missing something):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> Micropaleontology_organized2 http://www.zotero.org/styles/micropaleontology_organized2 Serena DameronIn order to paste what I created, I guess in order for you to see it, I just did a find and replace < with an *. I also had to replace part any links/urls that appeared since it wouldn’t let me submit more than one. So for those, I just did a find and replace anything that started with http:// and replaced it with ***. I also had to delete whatever was in the info-tag since I’m trying to figure out why it won’t let me paste the CSL code I made. Hopefully this posts.

You can use three backticks to paste codeblocks here.
Or, you use hastebin pastebin or a github gist to share youre code.
Well, that sounds like it’s a bug in Papers3. You should probably contact their customer support. There’s not really much we can do about it if it works correctly with the other tools mentioned.
Thanks, I’ll try contacting Papers. Hopefully they still offer support.
