Handling of COinS metadata

[UPDATE: It appears that the <span>'s are coming through when I export to the clipboard and then paste into the Wordpress editor, but only some instances are Zotero-ready, with a book in the address bar. I apparently have a different problem than I thought.]

When I write a bibliography of selected items to the clipboard, and paste the results into Word, the HTML that results when I export from Word to a web page (shudder!) appears to contain COinS metadata. Not that you could directly inspect this metadata in Word, no. That would be too easy. I have to look at the HTML code to see the "rft.date," "rft.place" tags.

My goal is to paste COinS-enabled HTML code into WordPress without having to either go through Word or export an intermediate HTML bibliography every time my database changes. Is there a way to write HTML to the clipboard?

Thanks,
Matt Frost
  • In the export preferences, setup a site-specific rule to export HTML when you use quick copy on your WordPress site.
