Upgrade StorageAdding my new citation style to Zotero
Hi,
I've made a modified version of the Harvard Reference format 1. Unfortunately I can't get Zotero to install it. This is what I've tried so far:
From http://dev.zotero.org/creating_citation_styles:
"Once you’ve created a CSL file, you can add it to Zotero by opening it in Firefox, either via File→Open or drag-and-drop, and clicking the page icon in the Firefox address bar."
I can't see a page icon in my address bar... Firefox just displays the code and
gives the message "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."
The only way I can test the citation style is by doing this:
1) I open the CSL file in Dreamweaver and copy the contents to the clipboard.
2) In my Zotero-enabled Firefox, I load chrome://zotero/content/tools/csledit.xul.
Then I open the Zotero pane and select some items. After that I paste the CSL contents into the large text area, and then I get a preview of the items in my modified Harvard style.
How can I permanently add the new citation style to Zotero?
