alphabetical order of bibliography

nkbroeker

Hello, I need again help... Everything is working fine, but in my bibliography there are two alphabetical lists behind one another. And at the end there are some webpages, I gave them a new name manually in the bibliography and now I would like to order the whole bibliography with the current authors alphabetically. I have no idea, why I have two lists!
Thanks for helping!

Please provide more details: zotero version, system, style, word processor?

which style?
Have you tried deleting the bibliography and re-inserting it?

nkbroeker

I use the zotero version 3.0.11 (Word Plugin 3.5.6.) with Mac Office 2011 (14.2.5.).
I use the style "Hochschule für Wirtschaft und Recht Berlin (HWR Berlin) (German)".
I tried to re-insert it after deleting and I get the same result...

adamsmith

the style very deliberately sorts webpages after everything else - if you don't want that, use one of the other German styles or modify the HWR style.

But in the second alphabetical list there is also everything mixed (journal articles, books, webpages)- so that is not the point. I was also thinking about this before...

adamsmith

the style's first sort key is the presence of a URL - so every article - regardless of type - that has URL and no page range - would be sorted after everything else.
I cannot judge if that's right or even intended and I don't modify faculty specific styles anymore, but I'm pretty sure that's the reason. The easiest way to test would be to switch to a different style, refresh and see what happens.

ah, sorry, that makes sense and that fits to my problem! How can I change this (is it easy to change it?)?

nkbroeker

I would like to use this style and if it is not so complicated, change this in the style!

See here for general instructions:

This specific case is indeed very easy, just delete the line:
<key macro="hasUrl"/>
and leave everything else as is.
