New Style Request -- Title first, then authors, etc.
I would like to list my publications, starting with their titles. I realize that this format is non-standard but it makes more sense on a CV or other list where the objective is to familiarize the reader with topics rather than authors.
Ideally this format would include an option to allow a certain author's name to be bold-faced.
I could not find any template with these features.
thanks in advance

For the second feature, Zotero can't do that automatically, but you can do it using Word's Find and Replace feature: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/microsoft-office/search-and-replace-specific-formatting-fonts-stylesetc-in-microsoft-word/
Open the .csl file in a text editor (TextEdit, Notepad, etc.)
Near the end of the file, look for this section:
<bibliography hanging-indent="true" et-al-min="11" et-al-use-first="7" subsequent-author-substitute="———" entry-spacing="0">
<sort>
<key macro="contributors"/>
<key variable="issued"/>
<key variable="title"/>
</sort>
<layout suffix=".">
<group delimiter=". ">
<text macro="contributors"/>
<text macro="date"/>
<text macro="title"/>
</group>
<text macro="description"/>
<text macro="secondary-contributors" prefix=". "/>
<text macro="container-title" prefix=". "/>
<text macro="container-contributors"/>
<text macro="edition"/>
<text macro="locators-chapter"/>
<text macro="collection-title-journal" prefix=", " suffix=", "/>
<text macro="locators"/>
<text macro="collection-title" prefix=". "/>
<text macro="issue"/>
<text macro="locators-article"/>
<text macro="access" prefix=". "/>
</layout>
</bibliography>
Change that code between the < bibliography > tags to this:
<bibliography hanging-indent="true" et-al-min="11" et-al-use-first="7" subsequent-author-substitute="———" entry-spacing="0">
<sort>
<key variable="issued"/>
<key variable="title"/>
<key macro="contributors"/>
</sort>
<layout suffix=".">
<group delimiter=". ">
<text macro="title"/>
<text macro="date"/>
<text macro="contributors"/>
</group>
<text macro="description"/>
<text macro="secondary-contributors" prefix=". "/>
<text macro="container-title" prefix=". "/>
<text macro="container-contributors"/>
<text macro="edition"/>
<text macro="locators-chapter"/>
<text macro="collection-title-journal" prefix=", " suffix=", "/>
<text macro="locators"/>
<text macro="collection-title" prefix=". "/>
<text macro="issue"/>
<text macro="locators-article"/>
<text macro="access" prefix=". "/>
</layout>
</bibliography>
Now, near the beginning of the file, find these lines:
<title>Chicago Manual of Style 16th edition (author-date)</title>
<id>http://www.zotero.org/styles/chicago-author-date</id>
<link href="http://www.zotero.org/styles/chicago-author-date" rel="self"/>
Change them to:
<title>Chicago Manual of Style 16th edition (CV)</title>
<id>http://www.zotero.org/styles/chicago-curriculum-vitae</id>
<link href="http://www.zotero.org/styles/chicago-curriculum-vitae" rel="self"/>
Save the file and then drag it to Zotero. You should get a prompt asking if you want to instal the new style.
That will create a bibliography with Title. Date. Authors. Everything else. It also changes the references to sort by date, then title, then authors.
Thanks very much bwiernik!
thanks in advance for any suggestions.
This may be a larger question: how do I underline my own name (or another author)?
