Trying hands on update of style/upload into zotero styles repository

larry
Hi adams or any, I was trying my hands on updating the style "applied-clay-science (author-date) using TortoiseSVN. However, after doing all the settings and tried to commit it. I got an authentication message that requires username and password. How do you do it to upload the updated field into zotero repository. Just want to try for fund.
Thanks

    did you get SVN/track access? you need a username and password.https://www.zotero.org/dev/trac_access

    Thank you for the information. All the best.

    Please adams can you check and upload this style. It has been modified and updated.
    I tried hands on how to upload but can not figure out how to.
    Here is the link to the file

    will do - quick question: you have in the editor macro
    name-as-sort-order=""
    that's not valid csl. Either you leave the option out, or you put "first" or "all" in the quotation marks. Which is correct?
  • larry
    Thanks for offering to do it. I want the editor format as fisrtname-lastname but because "first" formats only the first editor as lastname-firstname and "all" displays all as lastname-firstname, that is why I did that. You are right, rather no entry of [name-as-sort-order] gives what I need. Please delete it or if you have any suggestion to that effect.
    Any syntax you find invalid, correct it as you did the other time for me.
    Thanks.
  • adamsmith
    sure, I'll correct it - what you want is just not having the option in the code at all - but I wanted to make sure that's what you wanted.
  • adamsmith
    ok done - note that a variable "book author' doesn't exist.
    Also, a bit of a mess with groups towards the bottom of the style. should be all OK now.
  • larry
    Thanks for checking and uploading. Yes "book author" I thought I removed it from the substitute block. I wished that whole line was completely out. The style has already appeared in the repository but an indication of "invalid" is shown. What does that mean?
  • adamsmith
    I believe that's because of the "number-of-pages" variable, which doesn't validate yet, although it has been added.
  • larry
    May be that could be so.
    Thanks.
