Found a bug with name starting with "De"
Hi
I found that bizarre bug with name starting with "De" like for example Claudio De Felice
If I used the style Free radical research it showed it like that "Felice C De"
while it should be "De Felice C"
with name like "Aurelien De la Torre" it is the same "Torre A De la" while it should be "De la Torre A"
even crazier with Aurelien De La Torre..it showed "La Torre A De"
something must be wrong with that style if somebody understand something, I will be happy because with others styles that put the name first it is fine like with the style "Cell" for example
thanks

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.
Note that the names will still be sorted under the main laste name (i.e. F and T in your example). That, too, can be changed, but you'd have to provide an example from a published article about how they'd like to see that. Both types of sorting are not uncommon.
Works like a charm
I still have this problem.
Name appears on list as "De la Zerda, N" but in citation as "la Zerda, N. De" and is arranged under letter L in bibliography.
Name appears on list as "Al-Hattami, A" (no spaces) but in citation as "Hattami, A. Al-" which is clearly wrong.
Strangely, this doesn't happen with El-Hassan, S.
I have made what I think will be helpful changes for these particles in the processor. You can try out the changes by installing the Processor Patch plugin. Let us know whether it addresses this issue successfully. (You should remove the plugin at the next Zotero upgrade.)
(1) In the bibliography, should "De la Zerda" sort under "D" or under "Z"?
(2) In the "reversed" form in citations, should the form be "De la Zerda, N.", or "Zerda, N. De la"?
(3) In the bibliography, should "Al-Hattami" sort under "A" or under "H"?
