Thanks for this, that was already a great help.
-
On a general note, I would expect that you can use every field which Zotero offers in a citation style (at least for "normal" fields like names and such). Otherwise I see little reason for having the field. But specifically for the producer field: …
-
Yeah, but there's a considerable difference between "this will certainly come with 4.2" and "this might come some day, once 4.2 has been released".
-
Any improvements in sight for multivolume works where each volume has a separate book title? In humanities where you have all kind of 'Complete Works', this is quite common.
-
It looks like the producer mapping somehow got lost - that used to exist - everything else mentioned here I'm pretty sure has never worked in the past. Probably easy to restore that one. Is this still true? Although Zotero has a producer field for T…

@ffsammak: I know biblatex/biber very well, a biblatex style written by me is available on CTAN. But make no mistake: Biblatex's format is not bibtex proper. It's very similar, but it's not the same. It features many types and fields which are not…
-
Strictly speaking, biblatex's format is not the same as bibtex (the format).
-
The situation is not completely clear with bibtex and non-ASCII (as it is with many things concerning bibtex). AFAIK bibtex - does not allow any special or non-ASCII characters in the citekey. - will handle most (all?) characters in entries - cann…

The British Universities Film & Video Council has published guidelines for quoting films, tv shows and other of audio-visual content. In my opinion these recommendations are a bit over the top; from my experience in film studies you rarely see …
-
I guess the issue boils down to the question whether a field like "original title" should be part of the document entry of the translation or whether it should be its own document. And, of course, this has to be answered on two levels – the UI and t…
-
In humanities many styles require for translations to give the translator, original language, original title and you of original publication. Joining multiple items seems like a bit of an overkill here. Anyway, as far as I can see the type of relat…
-
Thanks. Basically, what I need is (2). If I understand you correctly, MLZ is not meant for this and therefore this can't be dealt with at all in Zotero at the moment.
-
Doesn't the cut of the film sometimes vary between distributors? Yes it can. But in general, things don't tend to be so strict here. I did my PhD in film studies and teach film studies at university and in my experience the MLA citation is not the r…
-
really? Distribution to movie theaters seems to be pretty international - I've certainly seen "Miramax" at the beginning of movies all over the world. For DVDs etc. this may vary, but then the distributor seems quiteimportant and equivalent to a boo…
-
You'r right, MLA requires distributor (which is really strange, since it's a completely useless information which varies from country to country). I wouldn't really consider actors to be a top priority either …
-
As I've written here and as others have written before, the film item should definitely be improved. - About every citation style I know (except MLA) requires a country of origin. - Many styles require a second title field – either the internationa…
-
Thanks. How are the various title fields of MLZ accessed in javascript if I want to import the data from a biblatex field?
-
I started hacking the bibtex exporter (which is no small deal since I know nothing about javascript). Film/movie import now works properly, biblatex's dates are imported properly and 'title' and 'subtitle' and 'booktitle' and 'booksubtitle' respect…

- Zotero is free while Endnote comes with a yearly $100 bugfix update. - While Endnote has a style editor, the style system itself is extremely limited and basically hasn't seen seen any improvement in over a decade. Bookauthor anyone? A proper hum…
-
@Rintze: The file itself certainly seems correct. And Zotero doesn't complain when I install it. I only get the error if I want to use it.
-
My setup: Mac OSX 10.7.3, Firefox 10.0.1, Zotero 3.0.3, Zotero Word for Mac Integration 3.1.10 and Word 14.1.4.
-
I tried both SF-Geisteswissenschaft and SF-Sozialwissenschaft and neither seems valid. Zotero protested in both cases and wouldn't let me export a bibliography nor use either style in Word.
-
Is there a way to define the language/locale the style uses?
-
Update: I got the culprit. It's a plugin called WordPress Amazon Associate. When I deactivate it, everything works fine – also with prettyphoto and sexybookmarks enabled.
-
@kseaborn What browser do you use? I don't get these Javascript errors. Both plugins have been working fine for – with or without Zotpress. As I said: Zotpress has been working before – with both plugins enabled. I just tried disabling prettyphoto –…
-
@kseaborn Strange you get a Javascript. I deactivated the sexybookmarks plugin, but this doesn't seem to change anything.
-
@ kseaborn: On the Wordpress admin side everything seems ok. I get the error when I try to display a website. I used the simplest code possible, just [zotpress], see here. This is an individual account. I see the same error on Firefox 4.0b11 and Saf…
-
I still get "Error: undefined" with Zotpress 2.5.1.
-
I also have problems with Zotpress 2.4. Inside Wordpress, there are no error messages anymore, but I want to display a site with Zotpress content, I get a requester saying "Error: undefined".
-
@simifilm I've released Zotpress 2.2, which should address this issue. Let me know if you're still coming across this error. It works now.Thanks a lot for fixing this so quickly.
