Keep sources sorted is lost when editing nature citations
I am using MAC OSX 10.5.8, the latest version of Zotero and Microsoft Word 2008 using *.doc documents. I have found the following bug using this and the previous version of Zotero.
I am using nature style references (with superscript numerical references within the text body). Adding several references at a single place in the document works fine, and if the 'Keep sources sorted' check box is selected then the citation numbers will appear in the correct order in the main body of the document (e.g. 1,4,5). However, there is a problem when I go back to edit those citations. When I do that, the 'Keep sources sorted' check box just doesn't appear. I can add a new citation to that location okay, but unless I'm lucky, the numerical list is out of order. e.g. I start with 1,4,5. I add 2, but it appears as 1,4,5,2. Why does the 'Keep sources sorted' check box disappear?
Thanks

PS/ Any plan on using a bug tracker instead of the forum to report bugs?
is it normal?
I'm using APA style with MS Word. Zotero 2.x
As to above - there is a bug tracker in forms of tickets (and I'm pretty sure there's one for this), but the general feeling is that having only a few people create tickets - based on forum posts which are all read by at least one dev - makes the process more efficient.
Please let me know how to correct the numbering of my citations! Do I have to redo all of my citations?
Thanks.
