Hello,

I used Zotero for my dissertation and it has been extremely helpful so far. I (stuporously) edited a style for my needs (German law) which worked pretty well in the citations, but not in my bibliography.

I used shortened titles in the citations for encyclopedias and book chapters and added a reference for this shortened citation style in the bibliography in round brackets. It looks like this:

Kirchhoff, Wolfgang, Außerwettbewerbliche Aspekte bei Entscheidungen nach Art. 101 AEUV, insbesondere im Licht der Querschnittsklauseln des AEUV, in: Politischer Einfluss auf Wettbewerbsentscheidungen, Baden-Baden 2015 (zit.: Kirchhoff in: Politischer Einfluss auf Wettbewerbsentscheidungen), 11–14

That's how it looks in the editor preview. In the final document, it changes some (not all) round brackets to square brackets:

[...] Baden-Baden 2015 [zit.: Kirchhoff in: Politischer Einfluss auf Wettbewerbsentscheidungen), 11–14

The code for the reference looks like this:

<group delimiter="">
<text variable="publisher-place" suffix=" "/>
<date date-parts="year" form="text" variable="issued" suffix=" (zit.: ">
<date-part name="year" form="long" suffix=" "/>
</date>
<names variable="" suffix="/">
<name delimiter="; " form="short" initialize-with=""/>
</names>
<text macro="author-note"/> suffix=" " font-style="italic"/>
<text value="in:" suffix=" "/>
<text variable="title" form="short"/>
<text value=")" suffix=""/>
</group>
<text variable="page"/>
</group>

It wouldn't be too bad to change it manually in the final document, but I'd prefer Zotero to handle it. Any idea what went wrong?
