Ignore Articles (a, the, etc) when sorting materials

AlinaWithAFace

Is this a thing or are there plans to implement something like this? Or am I better off renaming everything with an article at the beginning like Title, The?

Definitely don't rename.

Do you mean sorting in the Zotero window or sorting in a bibliography?

I bet AlinaWithAFace means in the Zotero window. There's no way to ignore leading articles in titles, so every item with a title starting with "A" or "An" sorts together, and everything starting with "The" sorts together. It would be great if there was a way to handle this so that items could be sorted on the next word.

I'd also love to have the feature that @wdenton is describing!
