How To apply a New Style to a New Journal Article Item - Step by Step

malex
Dear All,

I am a beginner, but I like Zotero very much. I think it's a great tool. I have read http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/citation_styles/style_editing_step-by-step. It's a clear guide and I can modify a citation syle to create a new one. Now I have a new citation style, I modified 'Environmental & Engineering Geoscience' style to create a new one 'ALFA' style.

1) How Can we apply 'ALFA' style to a new Journal Article Item, step by step ?

2) How Can we apply 'ALFA' style to all Journal Articles in my library, step by step ?

I still didn't find a solution to that questions. Please help me, I think a lot of people would like to know how to do that.

Thank You for kind attention.
Yours Sincerely, M Alex

    Styles are "applied" to documents (OpenOffice, MS-Word, html, rtf...) and not to library or individual items within zotero. The way items are displayed in zotero has no connection with citation styles.

    What don't you understand in this section of the page you've cited.

    Once you've modified a style, you must save your new style on your hard disk: give it a name and check it has the .csl extension.
    Then drag-and-drop it in an open Firefox window: click the install button.
