How do I add numbers to the items in a report???

jearle

I am trying to figure out how to insert numbers into a generated report. This way, each item in the report would be numbered, e.g., 74 articles would then each be numbered: 1, 2, 3, etc. Any ideas???

Thanks!!!

There is no easy way to do this.

Any links on how to do this, though, regardless of the difficulty ;-)

Thanks!

I think what Trevor means by "no easy way" is: No way that doesn't involve changing Zotero code.
In 2.0, the javascript file that creates zotero reports it handily title report.js and is in the
/content/zotero/xpcom/ folder of the zotero.jar - you can probably change that file to number items in reports.

I actually tried getting my bibliography enumerated by updating it, and then applying a "numbered list" format to it.
I haven't tested what happens once you update the bibliography though.

getting a numbered bibliography is easy: just use a numbered citation style such as nature (or adjust an existing one to include citation-number in the beginning).
What isn't supported are numbered reports.
