Problem with custom style in 2.1b6

mapmaker
Just downloaded and tried 2.1b6. There is still a problem that I reported earlier with 2.1b5.

I'm using Mac OSX 10.6.6, Firefox 3.6.13 and Office Mac 2011 14.0.2

For Zotero 2.09, I have PythonExt 2.6.2.20100203 and Zotero MacWord Integration 3.0b7 installed.

For Zotero 2.1b6, I have PythonExt 2.6..20100203 and Zotero MacWord Integration 3.1b1 installed.

The Style can be found at:

With 2.09, the output (citation and bibliography) looks like this:

https://files.me.com/dbruce.atkinson/qrnqjp

While with 2.1b6, the output looks like this:

https://files.me.com/dbruce.atkinson/kas8uo

As you can see, the bibliography with 2.09 has the author (an institution) as upper case/small caps while the 2.1b6 bibliography is upper case/lower case. The 2.09 output is the correct one so something is happening to overrule this in 2.1b6.

I note that this only happens with institutions. The upper case/small caps seems to work OK when authors are people in 2.1b6.

If this can be resolved I think I'm 'good to go' with 2.1x.

    I've looked into this a bit more. The difference can actually be seen within Firefox using the built in Zotero Reference Test Pane (chrome://zotero/content/tools/csledit.xul).

    Choose the 'American Journal of Botany (dev)' style and then look at a reference with an institution as author (Bibliography). The Uppercase/small caps format occurs with 2.09 but it is Uppercase/lowercase with 2.1b6. The suggests to me that the issue is not with the style but with the beta version of Zotero.

    Thanks for reporting (and for your patience). This is definitely a processor issue, and will be fixed in a fresh release later today. Look for the fix to appear in the next Zotero beta.

    I've just put up a fresh processor release that fixes this. It should work its way into the next Zotero beta.

    Just downloaded and tried 2.1b7. Issue resolved.

    Thanks.
