The “journal name” field has disappeared from the “Journal” ref type. How do I get it back?
The problem’s in the output style. The “Journal” field had disappeared so it can’t appear in any output templates. So in formatted bibliographies, there is nothing where a journal name should go --this usually means showing the title and going straight to the volume.
To further clarify, let X = any journal style in Style Manager. If we try to edit the template like this:
Edit > OutputStyles > EditX >Bibliography/Templates
we get a list of output templates. In any ref type that should have “journal” in it, it instead says “*INVALID FIELD*”. If I click “Insert Field” then in the list of fields it does notinclude “journal.”
“Journal” has disappeared from the program, at least on my laptop (this problem does not occur on my desktop).
It appears that the Reference Types Table has been amended or corrupted to remove that field.
In EndNote, click on Edit>Preferences, and select Reference Types.
Make sure that the default reference type is showing as “Journal Article” and then click on the “Modify Reference Types” button and you will see the fields defined for journal articles.
For the “Secondary Title” in the Generic column, you should see a corresponding “Journal” field in the “Journal Article” column. If not, insert it. Then click OK to return to the Preferences and OK again to exit the Preferences.
