Zotpress - how can I create a new style?

Dear Zotero,

I am sure I do not understand this so please be patient with me...

I just added Zotpress (to a still experimental blog) to test it and got this output:

http://ourcomments.org/psyblog/2013/04/29/zotpress-a-test-of-this-promising-way-to-add-references-to-a-post/

The reference list looks fine - except that I would like a link to the Google Books page in the first item. The item is this one:

https://www.zotero.org/groups/from_some_psychologists/items/collectionKey/FFVC9T2V/itemKey/TBZAC97E

Can I somehow create a new style that adds an URL link to the book?

    Two things:
    1. You can't use custom styles in Zotpress, only the styles from the Zotero/CSL repository
    2. It's not possible to use an attached link (as in your item above) in any citation style

    So I don't think there is any way to do this via Zotpress. (It would likely be possible to script something via the API, but that'd be rather involved - I wouldn't know of the top of my head, but it would have to be something like retrieve the item & its attachment, check whether the attachment is a link, if so append it to the citation - as I said rather involved).

    The second issue isn't the case for pubmed links necessarily. Since Zotero 4.0, a PMID in the extra field gets passed to CSL as just the number and so it would be pretty easy to add a citation style with pubmed links to the repository - I'll only put one up, though, so people would have to agree what's a good choice https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/25635/2/pubmed-import-partially-broken/#Item_32
