Two small changes in film citations

sasa1989
Hi,

the code I'm trying to change is named Infoclio (Deutsch-Schweiz)

How the citations are now:
Davis, Bernard: Enchanted Isles. (Anglo Scottish Pictures, 1957).

How they should be:
Davis, Bernard (dir.): Enchanted Isles, (Anglo Scottish Pictures, 1957).

I don't know where I have to put in the suffix "(dir.)" in the code. Furthermore I want to change the "." into a "," without having to change <text macro="title" suffix=". "/>

Thanks

a lot in advance

    to change the "." into a "," without having to change <text macro="title" suffix=". "/>
    that's not possible - if you put a period into the suffix of the title there's going to be a period after the title. If you don't want that, you'll need to find another solution to get the period there (an if loop, a group with delimiter etc.)

    The (dir.) suffix isn't really possible at the moment - it can be hacked if need be (as a suffix on names variable="author" only for item type motion_picture ) but a real solution will have to wait until we get a proper director variable in CSL.

    If I'm correct, CSL 1.0.1 introduced the "director" name variable.

    sorry I meant to write proper mapping from Zotero. we do indeed have the variable.
