MHRA author-date

    Hi everyone

    I have a minor problem with the MHRA author-date and would be very grateful if someone could help me to fix it.

    Imagine I introduce the following bibliographic reference in Zotero:

    López Torrijos, Rosa. 1990. ‘Los temas de Góngora en la pintura española de su tiempo’, in Góngora en su siglo y en el nuestro, 2 vols, II, pp. 35–50

    Then, when I ask Zotero to create the bibliography, this is what I get:

    López Torrijos, Rosa. 1990. ‘Los Temas de Góngora En La Pintura Española de Su Tiempo’, in Góngora En Su Siglo Y En El Nuestro, 2 vols, II, pp. 35–50

    Why does it put a capital letter at the beginning of each word? Zotero wouldn’t do that in the past. With titles of articles or books in many languages other than English (e.g. Spanish, French, Italian), only the first word is written starting with a capital letter, but not the rest.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Best regards

    Luis

    Put the language code for the item in the Language field (so "es" for Spanish). The title-casing that you're seeing is only applied to English titles (so "en").
