How to add item type "Project"

Gurdas_Sandhu · November 15, 2016

Not sure if this has been asked before; a simple search did not bring any posts.

What is the best item type to use for Projects? Not a project report, but the project itself.
For example: http://cordis.europa.eu/project/rcn/205600_en.html

Also, will a future version of Zotero have Project as item type?

Pretty sure we wouldn't add this as an item type of its own (though custom item types may well happen).

I'd say use whatever works for you -- webpage or Report would seem obvious options.

I use the report type but it confuses people. I would love/use a project item type or to be able to customise a type to reflect this.

CSL 1.0.2 includes a ‘project’ type.

Thanks for the many additional types in 1.0.2. Cross-link for ref:

So did you manage to add CORDIS projects to Zotero?
For me, entering a CORDIS DOI doesn't work, entering the DOI give's an error message about the record not being found so I can only save the page as a standard webpage without a DOI entry...
