URL for Legal cases
Through the firefox plugin , I have built a collection of law cases in my library, and these include URL reference links to the case in Google Scholar . When I build the bibliography, the cases appear, but without that URL link reference. If I included the case as a web page, then the link would appear. But then the citation in the body yext format is incorrect for a legal case.
Ideally all references with a URL would be hyperlinked to that reference which I understand would be a new feature.
Instead, I would like to edit the csl style format so that it includes the url in the bibliography. Then I can run a macro to convert that url into a link.
Is there an easy way to force zotero to include the URL field in the bibliography for a given style in the category legal case? Thanks.

So as II understand it, the URL is in the record (in the library's collection), but the style does not show the url as the style dictates otherwise. SO I'm guessing that I must edit the style to show the right cite format AND to include the uurl in the biblio ?
For example, in the JM Indigo book for Juris M for webpage cites the xml is:
<choose>
<if match="none" position="near-note">
<choose>
<if type="post post-weblog article-magazine webpage">
<group delimiter=" ">
<text variable="URL"/>
<choose>
<if type="webpage">
<text variable="references" prefix="(" suffix=")"/>
<group delimiter=" " prefix="(" suffix=")">
<text value="last visited"/>
<date variable="accessed" form="text" date-parts="year-month-day"/>
</group>
</if>
</choose>
</group>
</if>
this is telling the style to include the url
this snippet below defines something for the category legal-case:
<macro name="citation">
<choose>
<if>
<conditions match="all">
<condition match="any" type="legal_case legislation bill hearing report regulation patent"/>
<condition match="all" variable="jurisdiction"/>
</conditions>
<text macro="jurism"/>
</if>
if someone knows about editing the style xml, can I just insert the 'legal-case' type into the first code so that it turns on the url in the biblio?
thank u..
the example is from htttps://juris-m.github.io/styles/
I can use any zotero only style if it gives a proper legal citation and a url in the biblio.
thank u.
Thank you.
I’d you have other style requirements, please say so. What style generally do you want to use? We can tell you how to edit it to include the URL.
and IndigoBook (for legal memoranda)
cls files are downloadable links from this site

It looks like the this would allow a URL if I could understand the logic.
' choose>
' if>
' conditions match="all">
' condition type="legal_case" match="any"/>
' condition match="none" variable="archive container-title collection-' 'number"/>
' /conditions>
' text variable="URL"/>
' /if>
But I don't see those fields, eg archive, in the legal case input fields?
BTW there are so many law cases on google scholar now that this would be extremely useful to the entire law community.
alternatively, Anyone know how to contact the author Frank Bennett?
thank you.
