I have a list which I want to indent from the section title. I have tried \indent and \hspace{1cm} without success.
Here is my code
\vspace{0.2in}
\section{Affiliations}
\vspace{0.1in}
\indent The American Geophysical Union.\\
\hspace{1cm} The Seismological Society of America.
For consistent indentation of a "somewhat list-like structure", use adjustwidth from changepage:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{changepage}
\begin{document}
\section{Affiliations}
\begin{adjustwidth}{1cm}{0pt}
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}%
The American Geophysical Union.
The Seismological Society of America.
\end{adjustwidth}
\end{document}
However, I'd suggest a regular list-like structure like itemize:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\begin{document}
\section{Affiliations}
\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=1cm]
\item The American Geophysical Union.
\item The Seismological Society of America.
\end{itemize}
\end{document}

I am using overleaf to put together my references that follow the apa 7th edition. The journal titles however are not capitalized. How do I correct that? Note that I tried the method suggested in this post Capitalize journal name in latex but it didn't work for me.
Here is a minimal reproducible example:
\documentclass[man]{apa7}
\usepackage[american]{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[style=apa,uniquename=false,sortcites=true,sorting=nyt,backend=biber]{biblatex}
\DeclareLanguageMapping{american}{american-apa}
\addbibresource{refs.bib}
\begin{document}
\parencite{golinkoff1979comparison} said this
\printbibliography
\end{document}
My refs.bib here
#article{golinkoff1979comparison,
title={A comparison of fathers' and mothers' speech with their young children},
author={Golinkoff, Roberta Michnick and Ames, Gail Johnson},
journal={Child development},
pages={28--32},
year={1979},
publisher={JSTOR}
}
The reference prints this:
This is a cross post: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/670231/capitalize-journal-title-for-apa-in-latex
Same method as in the post you linked to:
\documentclass[man]{apa7}
\usepackage[american]{babel}
\title{text}
\shorttitle{short title}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[style=apa,uniquename=false,sortcites=true,sorting=nyt,backend=biber]{biblatex}

Never ignore error messages. Have a look at the tiny red rectangle at the top right, this tells you where the problem is.
Multiple problems:
You must not use math commands like ^ in normal text mode

The command \ection is not defines, I assume you mean \section? (there are several occasions)
you must \cite{...} at least one entry from your .bib file

If I compile main.tex (with PDFLatex, I also did it with Latex and PDFTex) it doesn't return me any error, but when I look at the PDF it doesn't print the Introduction.
So I was watching to the Introduction.tex:

\section{Welcome and Thank You} Welcome to this \LaTeX{} Thesis Template, a beautiful and easy to use template for writing a thesis using the \LaTeX{} typesetting system.
If you are writing a thesis (or will be in the future) and its subject is technical or mathematical (though it doesn't have to be), then creating it in \LaTeX{} is highly recommended as a way to make sure you can just get down to the essential writing without having to worry over formatting or wasting time arguing with your word processor.
\LaTeX{} is easily able to professionally typeset documents that run to hundreds or thousands of pages long. With simple mark-up commands, it automatically sets out the table of contents, margins, page headers and footers and keeps the formatting consistent and beautiful. One of its main strengths is the way it can easily typeset mathematics, even \emph{heavy} mathematics. Even if those equations are the most horribly twisted and most difficult mathematical problems that can only be solved on a super-computer, you can at least count on \LaTeX{} to make them look stunning.
And if I complie it I have some errors:
Undefined control sequence \chapter
Missing \begin{document}. \chapter{C
Undefined control sequence \section
I tryed to put the \begin{document} but I still have the same errors on the undefined control sequence and other errors like
The font size command \normalisize si not defined:there is probably something wrong with the class file.
Can someone help me, please? Thanks!
If on line 13 you remove the ) and move the \end{document} statement on line 183 to the end of the main, it will compile properly.

I have this latex code. But when I try to compile it it gives me an error saying :
! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item.See the
LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.Type H for
immediate help....
This error is on line:
\end{quotation}
Why am I getting this error? I haven't added any \item on the line where I'm getting the error.
The \paragraph and \\ instructions in the quotation do not make much sense. I guess that you meant something like this:
\begin{quotation}
\noindent
Banks are providing mobile applications to their customer. We are developing a
banking application using \emph{Location Based Encryption}. Compared to current
banking applications, which are location independent, \ldots
\paragraph{Keywords:} bank, application, encryption, location, mobile.

I'm trying to save some text inside an environment for later use. The smallest test case I could come up with is this. The saved text in the sbox isn't available after the environment is closed. How can I work around that? Thanks.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\newsavebox{\somebox}
\begin{itemize}
\item hello1
\item hello1 \sbox{\somebox}{Some text}
\end{itemize}
This should show something, but does not: "\usebox{\somebox}"
\end{document}
What you're running into here is a scoping issue. In (La)TeX, you can introduce scopes with { ... }, \bgroup ... \egroup, or \begingroup ... \endgroup. The former two are roughly the same, as \bgroup and \egroup are defined by \let\bgroup{ and \let\egroup}; the last one is slightly different. But the scoping property is the same: any commands, boxen, etc., created or modified within those scopes are not visible outside. And in LaTeX, all environments \begin{env} ... \end{env} implicitly wrap their contents in \begingroup ... \endgroup. This means that your\sbox{\somebox}{Some text} modification is only visible until the \end{itemize}; after that, the modification is undone. To get around this, prepend any command like \newcommand, \def, \newsavebox, \sbox, etc., with \global, which forces the definition to take place at the global scope and be visible everywhere.
Also, to use quotes in (La)TeX, write ``double quoted'', ``double quoted", or `single quoted'; the " character is only for closing quotes, not opening quotes. Putting this all together gives you the revised snippet
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\newsavebox{\somebox}
\begin{itemize}
\item hello1
\item hello1 \global\sbox{\somebox}{Some text}
\end{itemize}
This should show something, and in fact does: ``\usebox{\somebox}''
\end{document}
I think I can work around this by using \def. like so:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{itemize}
\item hello1
\item hello1
\global \def \somebox {Some text}
\end{itemize}
This should show something: \somebox
\end{document}
