Please help.... this is very urgent.
I must hand in an assignment for my Masters Degree tomorrow. I already completed it 3 days ago but I am having trouble with my bibliography. I adapted a citation style of Julian Onions for my needs (we must make use of the Harvard method, but with certain quirks not found in any Harvard method in Zotero). I am not sure how I did it, but I manage to panel beat it until my professors were happy. But during my latest assignment I ran into a problem for the first time: One author, 3 articles and two different years (one article from 1993 and two from 1992). It is supposed to change the dates to 1992a and 1992b (the csl script does have the disambiguate-add-year-suffix option).
Here is the results: my citation in the assignment: Watson (1992:105) for the one and Watson (1992:700) for the other. It is suppose to be Watson (1992a:105) and Watson (1992b:700).
In my bibliography I get the following anomaly:
Watson, D. 1992. "Chreia/Aphorism." In Green, J.B. & McKnight, S. (eds.), Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels. Downers Grove: InterVarsityPress.
Watson, D. 1993. "Diatribe" In Hawthorne, G.F. & Martin, P. (eds.), Dictionary of Paul and his letters. Downers Grove: InterVarsityPress.
Watson, D. 1992. "Rhetorical Criticism" In Green, J.B. & McKnight, S. (eds.), Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels. Downers Grove: InterVarsityPress.
It is supposed to be
Watson, D. 1992a. "Chreia/Aphorism".....
Watson, D. 1992b. "Rhetorical Criticism"......
Watson, D. 1993. "Diatribe".......
Can anyone help me correct this ASAP (like right now, PLEASE, VERY PLEASE :-0 )

Also, how can I change the ordering so that the are the order in my bibliography is at least chronologically correct?
<sort>
<key macro="author"/>
<key variable="title"/>
</sort>
To:
<sort>
<key macro="author"/>
<key variable="issued"/>
<key variable="title"/>
</sort>
