sep is undefined
Hello, could you help me, please?
Zotero refuses to update the old references in the document or insert a new one flashing a small window with "sep is undefined" message.
Note: I am using several forms of accents and have no idea which item is causing the problem...

It is 4.0.29.15
Now I am deleting citations one by one to find the problematic citation.
‘Hashiw Hogabardzut‘yan Oriordakan Yerjankahishatak Arghut‘eants‘ H. Dprots‘in (The Report of the Armenian School for Girls Named after Late Arghut‘eants‘)’, 152–54.
Could you advise me what to do? All my transliterated citations carry this kind of accents, and unfortunately, I cannot eliminate them. Is there a way to keep them and not to experience problems with zotero?
I made another copy of the same document and deleted this problematic citation, but the "sep is undefined" window appeared again. I am assuming it is not this particular citation but a combination of my transliterated citations that zotero does not like.
Do you think there are other solutions?
@fbennett -- I assume this is citeproc-js; how do you want to troubleshoot this?
The most helpful thing you could do is to try to create a minimal case of a citation/document that triggers this error. It's very hard to fix an error that we can't replicate on our side.
I tried with older documents, where I did not experience any problems. It opens the same window... (!)
Hang on for a day. I have just finished several days' work on text-case transforms in the processor code.
By coincidence, the method I used there can also be applied to quote/apostrophe formatting. If that is done, this problem will go away.
I just need to put in time on it.
I'm about halfway to a solution with the new coding pattern, and still very confident that it will be more reliable than what I wrote originally. I hope to get it up and running in the processor tomorrow.
Just a little note. Now I have Zotero 5.0 on my computer (it's mac os version 10.12.3). Yesterday after numerous experiments when I tried 5.0 beta, it did not allow me to go back to the 4.0.29.15 that I was using.
More news fairly soon!
Making good progress on the solution. I have the new in-text markup + quotes-parsing code running. It needs some small refinements to get it to pass all of our tests, but it's looking good, and should be ready for use in another day or so.
Thanks for your patience.
Still poking a long with the update. It's taking a little more time than predicted, because a portion of my initial code needed a rewrite (specifically for quotation marks and apostrophes, the semantics of which are quite tricky for the machine, although not so much for people). The parsing works are now all in place, and there is just a small amount of work to do. I'm pretty confident that the revised processor will be ready for testing tomorrow. I'll be eager to see whether it solves the problems with your document.
