Bibliography problems - Chicago Manual of Style
I am having a couple problems with bibliography style for Chicago Manual of Style.
First, Zotero alphabetizes "Van Gelder" under "G" instead of "V." It should be under V.
Second, it is capitalizing some prepositions like "Before" and "After" in Word, even though I have them lower case in Zotero itself.
Third, when there are more than one author, Zotero uses ----- rather than _____ like it should.
Thanks!

2. fbennett needs to look at, but I can confirm "before" and "after" being incorrectly capitalized.
3. you're incorrect - Zotero should and does print 3 em-dashes (and certainly shouldn't print underscores) - how that is displayed depends on the font you're using.
4. We're aware of, but it's basically impossible to handle as soon as we think beyond English titles.
Thanks!
Sorry, just editing my dissertation bibliography! :)
(The last time I looked at this, I found that title-casing conventions vary for some of the prepositions. If down the road we start getting complaints running the other way, it will be time to think about making this configurable.)
The style is now fixed. The updated version will appear on the repository within 30mins (check the timestamp). Update your copy of the style by re-installing it from the repository. (See here if you need instructions for installing styles in standalone.)
Styles should also update automatically within 24hs for Zotero 4.0+
Any further problems please let us know.
This should mean that everything in this thread except no. 4 (which we won't fix) has been fixed. Thanks for reporting.
