It works beautifully--thanks!

Ok, I would like to report that my library of 17411 parent items (30968 total) synced successfully after I upgraded to Firefox 4. It took several tries over two days, and I had to restart the browser and the computer a few times after errors. But I …

Also, if the author could be automatically converted from all caps to title case, it would be great. Sorry for so many requests--many thanks!
-
@ajlyon Any chance you can also test for date=null? Readability doesn't always extract the date, and currently Z gives an error if there is no date.
-
Ok, thanks. I'll let you know how it goes.

Any update on syncing large databases? I'm moving to a new project and am considering archiving most records from my previous project to trim down the DB. I currently have 41809 items; zotero.sqlite is 666.4 MB; my storage folder is 21.56 GB. I coul…

Right. This should be easy to add I think since it already works for "is" searches.
-
If you do an "is" (as opposed to "contains") search you'll get case-sensitive results. All advanced searches are phrase searches I think.
-
Well Archive should be many-to-one in relation to the item, but Archive Location should be one-to-one in relation to Archive (and should be linked to a particular archive). Archive Location is only for Box nos, etc., which are locations within a par…

We separated "Archive" from "Catalogue" for a good reason (https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/853 https://www.zotero.org/trac/changeset/5701 ). Please don't change it back. It has to do with citing archival sources.
-
@ajlyon: if you're still editing, can you test for author=null? z gives me an error when article has no author.
-
@ajlyon: Many thanks!

Maybe a related issue--Zotero remembers different saved search folders in tab and non-tab mode. For example, I work in folder A in non-tab, then switch to tab and move to folder B. Then I switch to non-tab: I'm back in folder A; work some more, swit…

What about the archival collection type? Here are discussion and ticket: https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/661 https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/1023 http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/2981/styling-archival-material/ http://forums.zotero.org/dis…

Could we just divide the item type into something like "Image" and "Object"? This would cover both kinds of artworks, as well as ethnographic photographs, spy gear from the Spy Museum, etc.
-
I would actually add "subject" to "creator" types. It may be needed in other cases as well--an obituary title for example does not always include the deceased person's name but it is useful to have and in theory could be included in the citation (al…

Presumably foreign month names can be parsed by using localized CSL terms lists--not sure about seasons. I'm still in favor of free-form date entry field with ability to parse as much as possible and rendering rare cases as entered, as discussed on …
-
Have you figured out how to deal with months/seasons? It would be great to sort June 2001 or Summer 2001 before September 2001 or Fall 2001 , i.e. to parse the seasons as well. But if you display the parsed date (2001-09-01) first and have users rol…

The latest CMS recommends including short version of title in subsequent citation: 16.42The basic short form The most common short form consists of the last name of the author and the main title of the work cited, usually shortened if more than fo…

Would it be possible for saved searches in groups to show up in the web view? Currently they don't.

should be Max Weber, “Soziologische Grundbegriffe,” in Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft, von Max Weber (Tübingen: J.C.B. Mohr, 1972), 20. Actually according to CMS it should be: Max Weber, “Soziologische Grundbegriffe,” in Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft (Tü…

Film item type is really for theater releases and should have title first and not the director in Chicago; but a few tickets need to be closed before this happens: https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/862 https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/844 https:…

There is an inconsistency in saved searches on "date added" (which does not include notes at all) and "date modified" (which does). I.e., if I add a note to an old source a search for items added in the last day will not find this note and the sourc…

In the interest of ending this circuitous discussion, I've added Turabian (Author-Date) Style--please install from the styles page and let me know if it works for you. Edit: Many thanks, Adam, for additional explanations--I figured it was easier to…

Use Chicago author-date style. There is no difference between Chicago author-date and Turabian author-date styles. Edit: What Adam said. If you find differences between Chicago and Turabian author-date styles let me know and I'll create a new styl…

There are two Turabian styles--they are not meant to be used together in the same work: http://www.press.uchicago.edu/books/turabian/turabian_citationguide.html Kate L. Turabian’s Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations pre…

If Chicago author-date lets you insert correct citations, why not just use it?
-
@meerutwala What are the differences between Chicago and Turabian author-date styles? If there are significant differences, I'll create a separate style.
-
Use saved search feature--you answered your own question.
