Help needed with Aliases

RemNote
#1

TLDR: Can someone give me the new correct syntax for the aliases please?

Hello, I’ve been using this CSL to create reference consistently: GitHub - ft-fk/CSL-Remnote: CSL (citation language style) to cite document from Mendeley/Zotero in Remnote-Md - https://github.com/ft-fk/CSL-Remnote

this creates the following for each library’s item, an example:

**Cobalt: demand-supply balances in the transition to electric mobility (EUR 29381 EN - JRC112285)**, Alves Dias et al., [[Issued/2018]] 
    [[~/Aliases]] 
          Alves Dias et al., 2018 
  [[People/Authors/Alves Dias, Patrícia]], [[People/Authors/Blagoeva, Darina]], [[People/Authors/Pavel, C]], and [[People/Authors/Arvanitidis, N]] 
  [[Issued/2018]], [[Publisher/Publications Office of the European Union]] 
  ##1-line-abstract 
  ##Topics

however, this does not create the appropriate the result:

To show the difference, I’ve created manually the alias in remnote (green= correct, red=wrong)

This is very likely because you have another top-level rem with key ~. Then the resolution of [[~/Aliases]] reference picks an arbitrary one.

Can you find the other ~ rem with Ctrl + P?

Try to delete the extra one(s). If you have extra content on them, you need to move the children manually, since you cannot merge when a powerup, here ~, is involved.
