  in labels for CSL field "collection-number" Comment by birne75 February 3, 2021
• Thanks for the info. I understand that in this case I won't be able to make it change to the plural in the case of multiple entires? Like "vols. 29, 30 and 32" for example.

  in labels for CSL field "collection-number" Comment by birne75 February 3, 2021
• Many thanks. For the time being, I have removed the text-case code. Now it just has to be entered with the first letter set manually as uppercase. Best wishes, Daniel

  in Text in edition field Comment by birne75 February 2, 2021
• Has this problem been solved? I mean that the Zotero UI Field entry "second enlarged and revised edition" becomes "Second enlarged and Revised edition"? I tried to work around it with placing the text in quotation marks and also using richt text fo…

• Thanks for the reply! Yes, I can see how this could be tricky and I agree adding will bring other problems with it. I will just have to remember to look of the footnotes and capitalize those case before typesetting everything for print. Best wishe…

  in "issued" and "ongoing range of publication" Comment by birne75 January 22, 2021
• Just to ask again here - I may have phrased it in a weird way, but basically what I mean is this: Is there a way to ensure that the first character of a citation at the beginning of a footnote is always uppercase? https://docs.citationstyles.org/e…

• Good to know field-specific language specification is planned!

  in Title case questions Comment by birne75 January 21, 2021
• Thanks, I tried it. But the output is still just "2012", without a following en dash to show an ongoing range. The EDTF conventions, however, say that having nothing following the slash is exactly how to specify a time interval with unknown end. A…

  in "issued" and "ongoing range of publication" Comment by birne75 January 21, 2021
• Thanks a lot. I think the more reliable trick should work for me best. Thanks! As for (2), ok, until it is updated I will then just type the respective prepositions with uppercase initial letter. Many thanks, Daniel

  in Title case questions Comment by birne75 January 21, 2021
• Hi, sorry to be a bother again on this issue, I just noticed that "issued: x/y" in the extra field was once again "corrupted" and place into date as "x/y". Is this a mistake or now intended? In the document on "x" gets printed as date. Many thank…

  in extra field corruption? Comment by birne75 January 11, 2021
• Hi, thanks for the swift reply. Its Zotero 5.0.93 I changed it back - worked fine also in the article I was working on. Syncing did not change it in the database, neither did closing and reopening zotero. However, I recently had to reinstall windo…

  in extra field corruption? Comment by birne75 December 11, 2020
• Ok, for example, I have an item by an author al-Mizzī - an Arab author from the middle ages. I set the style up to tread the article al- as a particle (demote-non-dropping-particle="sort-only"). This works fine, the article is not regarded for sorti…

  in Text in edition field Comment by birne75 June 12, 2020
• Thanks, I'm using a style that is derived from CMOS 16th ed. note. Actually, I realize now that the macro syntax also doesn't work, at least not the one I was using.

  in translator and subsequent-author-substitute Comment by birne75 January 29, 2020
• I run this by our series-editor and turns out, there was a misunderstanding and an inaccuracy in the style explanations. Turns out, the ibid-rule as implement in csl/Zotero is exactly as he/we want it. Thanks again!

• Oh, ok ... I was afraid that might be the case. But thanks for clearing that up! Much appreciated. I do agree that this requirement is confusing and a disservice to readers. It is one of the points I raised several times with the responsible people…
