No capitalization in MLA-style?
I write in Spanish where no capitalization is used in work titles. I know EndNote has a special style for MLA without automatic capitals in titles. Would it be possible for Zotero to offer that kind of alternative for us who don't write in English? I have tried to turn off capitalization in the hidden preferences, changing the value to "false", but the program keeps capitalizing automatically. Any other suggestion on how I can turn it off?
(I cannot reproduce this on Zotero 2.0.9)
I don't think the hidden preferences should matter here - the capitalization one is for import, not for export.
I realized by doing that, that all my styles seems to be old (earlyer than 2010) and most have been updated especially for the 2.1 zotero. There is a button for actualizing import filters, I could not found any for the styles. Am I missing something or do I have to manually look for updates every week or so?
thanks

i.e. put fr-FR in the language field for the items that are in French. I'm not 100% sure that's implemented yet, so please test this for an item or two first to see if it works before you change all your items.
And since it's the obvious follow-up question: no, unfortunately you can't do this for multiple items at once.
If that's no option, it's not terribly hard to create a custom copy of the style without title casing.
As you note this will work (as will, I believe, any two letter combination in lowercaps), but at least for new entries you may want to input this correctly.
