The fields and item types available in MLZ (http://citationstylist.org) are listed here: http://fbennett.github.com/z2csl/diffMap.html Something from the Federal Register should be cited with the "regulation" item type. If you see anything missi…

It sounds like we're close to correct with current behaviour. I've located the spots in the code where the letter is capitalised. It's conditioned on the word being a dropping or non-dropping particle and the first in a sentence. The "first in sente…
-
Erm, from your example it's being a little more aggressive than I supposed. But I'll still wait for the dust to settle on discussion before making changes, just to be on the safe side.
-
Actually, I can confirm this. The capitalisation is being imposed implicitly by the processor when the particle is the first word in a sentence. For most words (like ibid) this is desired, but we might want an exception here. I'll wait for other opi…

Which style?
-
This should be fixed now. It needed small fixes in MLZ and in the translator. It should come right if you update MLZ and then update translators via Preferences/General. Sorry about the breakage; I should have tested MODS before the release.
-
A simple MODS export and import here fails for want of a multi segment on the translator's freshly generated Zotero.Item() object. That's definitely a bug. It looks like the sandbox Item() function should be supplying the multi segment, but isn't. I…

Have you tried LibreOffice? It works the same as OO, but it more actively maintained and is known to work better with Zotero.

@JimWalton: Before this turns into a flame war, I'll just step in here to point out that you may be misreading the narrative. If you took the query by adamsmith, writing above, as purely rhetorical, that would be a misreading. Feedback is how these…

I've added a fix for this to the processor. You can test it by installing the following plugin: http://gsl-nagoya-u.net/http/pub/zotero-processor.xpi It's only effect is to swap the updated processor into your existing Zotero. If the problem goe…

@cromwleym: The error is coming from the citation processor. It's a processor bug. You may be able to help us track down the cause. What style are you using that triggers the error?
-
@roypeled: As adamsmith notes, the latest version of MLZ will not work with the official Zotero Standalone, so when you upgrade, Standalone will stop working if it is using the same data directory. The MLZ styles are designed to work best with MLZ …

It would be good to test the new processor before release, to be sure that it works properly in your environment. The following plugin will swap a copy of the new processor into your existing Zotero. It has no other effect. If you could install it a…
-
I've put up a fresh processor release with a fix for this. It looks like the Zotero 3.0.12 release has not come out yet, so with luck this will make it in, and the problem will go away when your Zotero upgrades.
-
Thanks for reporting. This is almost certainly a bug in citeproc-js. I'll take a look, and with luck a fix will be in place for the upcoming 3.0.12 Zotero release.
-
@adamsmith: Setting up the patch against "master" will involve a bit more toil than I thought. I'll keep this on the list, but it may be awhile before I get to it.
-
I've added that reverse-conversion option to the zodfscan.py script. You can get the updated version by pulling from GitHub, or by reinstalling from a zip download.
-
Thanks for the reminder. I'll try to get that up today.
-
Yep, that's the workflow. There have been a couple of requests for the reverse -- converting live Zotero citations to "link-wrapped" cites in an ODF document, so that the content can be cut and pasted into other utilities. I can see how this would b…
-
MLZ is sync-compatible with official Zotero, so you can do a reverse migration by (1) backing up and syncing, (2) moving your MLZ database (zotero.sqlite) to a safe location, (3) installing official Zotero, and (4) syncing to your account. If you ha…
-
On the Word integration issue, you have installed the Zotero Integration plugin for Word into Firefox, yes? On the bibliography issue, I'm not quite sure what effect you are after. If you want separate bibliographies for each chapter, copy out each…

To respond to the actual topic under discussion ... how about "Service"?
-
In legal research, newly released cases are often cited to an electronic service when they have not yet appeared in a proper reporter. In the MLZ legal styles, it looks like I used Archive for the service name, and Archive Loc. for the service ID (s…
-
Good point. I don't use a Mac, but according to the support pages the default directory name under OSX would indeed be "zotero", without the extension. http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data
-
Bingo! (as far as the library is concerned)
-
@wonblee: With httpServer enabled in Firefox/MLZ, that link downloads okay here from Chrome. If it's not working for you, you might try updating translators (gear menu -> General -> Update).
-
The abbreviations plugin was set to disable itself on your version of Firefox. I've updated it, so if you need the plugin it should install and run now.
-
This is related. The drag/drop cites mentioned in the description are only available in MLZ at present. http://citationstylist.org/tools/#zotero-odf-scan
-
Under the hood, Zotero item data is stored in a set of database tables. The data for each item is referenced using a unique itemID. When an item is added to a collection, its itemID (with the ID of the target collection) is added to a collectionItem…

Why not just directly set the folder on the NTFS partition as a custom data directory in the Linux Zotero? That might avoid the mounting/sync issue.
