footnote format help for not quite Chicago
Hello, I have just set up Zotero and am having trouble finding a citation style that fits my needs, which are very specific submission requirements for a PhD thesis.
I have tried to use Chicago with full note no ibid, but there are still some things that are not quite right. I have also looked at the World Politics or International Organization. This does not give me the first reference in full, but does give me the Author-Date format. Neither are exactly right nor do they have a "p." for page numbers.
What I need is:
Bibliography =
Kenny, Anthony. Medieval Philosophy. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2007
1st reference in footnote, in full with p. but without the publisher =
Anthony Kenny, Medieval Philosophy (Oxford, 2007), pp. 23-56
2nd reference to same publication in footnote as author-date =
Kenny 2007, pp. 23–56
Any help on how to set this up (or possibly if there is a style already in place that I am not finding) would be much appreciated!!!

http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/citation_styles/style_editing_step-by-step (with various links pointing out from there)
is the best I can point you two. We can help you with specific questions if you try modifying the style yourself, but don't have the capacity to do custom modifications or walk you through the entire process.
Otherwise, no. (It also likely wouldn't be 10mins, to be honest--when I give workshops, we spend 2hs on this).
We have talked about doing a couple of free webinars on citation styles, but nothing definite yet in that respect.
If anyone else reads this post and has a solution, or needs the same citation format - please let me know!
Thanks again.
