Sorting by Title: Sorts by Articles? HELP

Hello. Is there no way to set Zotero to sort sources by title WITHOUT using initial articles like "the" and "a"?
Thank you!

  • Do you mean in the Zotero window or in a citation style?
  • I'd like to know about this as well. I'm referring to while in the Zotero library. So many titles start with The and I don't want 90% of Zotero library stuffed in the Ts because they start with the word The. I know I could leave it out but then when I cite them, its missing part of the title techncially. Any fixes/ideas?
  • +1 for a feature request to add a 'Sort Title' to all items and sort Title col on this. 'The' and 'A' make items harder to find
  • I ran into this today, trying to compare lists in Zotero and EndNote for completeness. I couldn't find a Zotero solution, but EndNote has a preference option where you can specify what characters to ignore at the start of titles, so I wound up turning that off for the interim.
