"2) If you used the editor solely as a preview of how customizations would look in context, that's a legitimate regression, particularly for multi-item citations. The main bubbles kind of have to be author-date for space reasons, but we could consid…

"But what do you need to see? Prefix and suffix add text at the beginning and end of the citation, inside any containing parentheses or brackets. What else is there to know ahead of time?" I mean, the zotero "preview" and the actual Word outcome ar…

"Because, as I said, it breaks core Zotero functionality — it prevents Zotero from updating citations and keeping them correct, which is one of the main points of using a citation manager." I'm grateful that you made it easier to update citations w…

"You should not do that — that's just not how you use Zotero, and the classic dialog encouraging its use was one of the biggest problems with the dialog. Manual editing prevents Zotero from updating citations properly as you insert more citations, u…

"Why is it hard? There's a large search field at the top of the dialog, where the cursor is placed by default. You just type your search. In Library mode (toggle in the bottom right), there's a standard library browser below that mirrors the main Zo…

Also the citations are not being input to Word

Thank you. Yes, there are a few issues: (1) it is hard for me to search and find the items that I am looking for. (2) there is no editor panel (as in the old one) so I can know what my citation looks like before posting it (3) it lists the citatio…

great thanks!

Great, that's helpful! Is 18th ed. out yet? Out of curiosity, why would the parenthetical be: (1748; Cambridge University Press, 1994) Not: ([1748] Cambridge University Press, 1994)? The latter looks closer to author-date -- eg Hume ([1748] 199…

Amazing! Is it functional yet? Also, you write: "14.16. Reprint editions and modern editions: Allow use of the edition variable alongside original-date, original-publisher-place, and original-publisher to specify a phrase describing a republished w…

Thanks! That approach [giving the date each instance] is way too unwieldy for some of these letters [eg famous titled letters like the Novanglus ones]. I suppose for these letters, I can just treat them as books or book sections in that case. EDIT…

@Adamsmith, thank you! Didn't know the 18th ed. was out The result is doesn't fully fix the issue, but it does remove the excess dates: Adams, John. 2011. Revolutionary Writings: 1755–1775. Edited by Gordon S. Wood. The Library of America. Adams, …

Thanks! I didn't see that (top of APSR page refers to APSA guidelines). Why is there a separate APSR citation style in Zotero then?
-
Has this ever been implemented? Was looking for something like it, and it would be a great idea!
-
Crash report requires a bunch of comments because of size. Is there a more efficient way to post it or is it unnecessary? Thanks!
-
Perfect, thanks!
-
Nevermind, I got it. Thanks so much!
-
to confirm I change "note" to "annote" at the bottom where it says: The id is a zotero link. Does it matter what I change the id to? Thanks!
-
Yes, that would be perfect. Thank you in advance!
-
Thanks! I think that fixes the issue!
-
Yes. I also uninstalled and reinstalled Zotero
-
Ok, thanks!
-
How would I modify the citation style to do this?
-
Bumping in case someone hasn't seen this
-
The "original date: " in the Extra field is not helpful for translated books. The result is something like: For Citations: Carl Schmitt, “Ethic of State and Pluralistic State,” in The Challenge of Carl Schmitt, ed. Chantal Mouffe, trans. David Dy…

@nickbart thanks! I'll give it a looksee and let you know if I have any questions
-
@nickbart I think I figured out how to add it to the citation style, but there's no option in Zotero for "original author". How do I add that?
-
@nickbart and @bwiernik thank you so much for your help! Two questions: (1) how do I make these changes to the CSL file?; (2) How do I ensure this change only affects the items I want it to affect, and not, say, book chapters or articles in books, …

Ok, two related questions for employing a manual workaround: (1) One thing I plan to do is to cite to the volume of works directly, then to each individual works (e.g. CSM I: Discourse on the Method). Normally multiple citations are separated by a…
