Citing speeches that are untitled
I want to cite a speech that was given at a conference, but did not have a title. I have a transcript of the speech, so I'm actually citing the transcript, which was complied by the meeting sponsor.
No Zotero type seems quite to fit the bill -- presentation comes closest, but if I put "speech" in the Type field, the "presentation" afterwards isn't capitalized.
Powell, Colin, General. Speech. presented at the American Road and Transportation Builders Association, 50th Anniversary of the Interstate Highway System, Washington, D.C., June 29, 2006.
This style is CMoS 16th (note).
[I am also not sure how/whether to include the title "General" in his name, and if so, whether the above is correct.]

I'll look at the style, I though it should do that correctly.
Powell, Colin, General. Speech (unedited transcript). presented at the American Road and Transportation Builders Association, 50th Anniversary of the Interstate Highway System, Washington, D.C., June 29, 2006.
Note: I had updated the type field in the Zotero entry to read: "speech (unedited transcript)", so it appears slightly differently than in the earlier post.
Please advise if there is a better way to delete and reinstall the Chicago styles.
<macro name="issue">
and copy&paste that passage down to the next </macro>
here. It's about 50 lines and will be pretty far towards the bottom (around lines 940-990 if you're looking in a text editor).
not sure if we mentioned that in the other thread.
Styles also update automatically within 24hs for Zotero 4.0+
In an existing document, you may have to switch to a different style and back for the changes to take effect once the style is updated.
Any further problems please let us know & thanks for reporting
