I'll fix the bibliography forms in the styles over the next couple of weeks as well. To quote text, just enclose it in tags (manually).
-
Once I get a cleaner field layout in place, we can revisit the UI strategy. Things that look awkward with the field in its current nearly-invisible location might seem less bad when the current setting is more prominent.
-
This will be a little painful to implement, but you're right. I've tried to keep the layout of the UI as close as I could to official Zotero, with the idea that the field layout will clean up when the Jurisdiction material is eventually merged. That…
-
Or we could do both -- repeat the last by default, but provide a means of setting a fixed initial value. The fixed-jurisdiction toggle could be offered in the popup dialog, which should be pretty self-explanatory.
-
... would be good to have the jurisdiction field pre-filled with my default country - which of course I can change in the field itself if I am adding a case from another jursidiction.That's a good suggestion. We either provide for a default jurisdic…
-
Ah. Use right-click on the Extra field, and set the jurisdiction for the case to United Kingdom. Sorry, I should have spotted this one earlier. Legal types require a "jurisdiction" setting because legal cite forms vary across national boundaries. T…
-
Sorry! Left-click. (I'm one of those frustrating left-handers that get the two mixed up.) And yes, you will need to use the drop-down to enter the italic tags.
-
No Zotero dialogue box even opens up. I have to open it manually in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.The two buttons have different functions. The icon in the bottom right corner of the Firefox window is for opening the database view. The …

Just before dawn is the darkest hour. :-)

Try upgrading Standalone to the latest version (3.0.11).
-
Try right-clicking on the bubble for a citation. You should get a drop-down with fields where you can enter arbitrary text. If you enter passim as passim, it will be italicized in the citation.
-
By "Zotero web" do you mean Standalone? If so, try closing it completely.
-
With MLZ, use the MLZ Oscola style at http://citationstylist.org/tools. The discrepancy in date handling is a little annoying when first encountered, but there is logic behind it. A published court judgement might have two dates -- a date of decisi…
-
The first step is probably to confirm your exact environment. Things that might be relevant are: Operating system and version; Firefox version; Zotero version; Word processor plugin version (in Firefox); Standlone version; and the versions of the Ch…

In the MLZ sources with that patch reversed, translation of the linked page fails here. With the patch reapplied, it succeeds. When your patch finds its way into the next release, these pages should work correctly with or without AdBlock installed. …

I definitely get an error on that page with Zotero 3.0.11. I just retried with a clean install into a fresh profile. The error console shows: trimInternal: argument must be a string This is under Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) with Firefox 17.0.
-
MLZ works fine, but I can reproduce the error with Zotero 3.0.11. It looks like the pages make use of Ajax (a modern method of trickling data into a page after it is first called by the browser). Others will know the details, but I believe some cha…
-
Yay! Thanks for reporting the fault.
-
(@MTadd: If you can, it would be good to change the subject of this thread to read "[MLZ] Short titles not working".)
-
This should be fixed in a fresh MLZ release I've just put up (3.0.11m312).
-
Yep. I've isolated it to MLZ. There is a processor toggle that turns on support for main-title/subtitle support, and that seems to be fouling up ordinary shortTitle handling. It will be sorted out soon.
-
I can reproduce this in MLZ. More news soon.
-
I've amended the instructions in the README file to include a quick-and-simple way of running the conversion script. Eventually, it should be possible to recast the code (in JavaScript) as a Firefox plugin; the code for it isn't heavily dependent o…
-
It should be possible to reverse the conversion, but there isn't a mechanism for doing that yet. The simplest thing would probably be to use a hacked CSL style that outputs the wrapped citation strings. I overlooked author suppression. What sort of…
-
So if you are in a terminal, and in the directory with the documents, when you type "ls" (or "dir", I think, in DOS), do you see your file listed?
-
We do need to make the packaging easier, but there is an error in the documentation -- the name of the command has changed to "zodfscan.py".
-
(If anyone with packaging experience has suggestions on how to make installation and use of the script less fiddlesome, I'll be happy to make adjustments.)
-
(Nathan and I have had some correspondence. It looks to be just a non-MLZ-specific issue with one or more cites in the document.)
-
You'll have to be more specific. It's not clear what you are asking.
-
Yes, this might be a good time to start a discussion about how this fits together, and I agree that zotero-dev is the place for it. (My note above was aimed at current MLZ users who might be concerned about that particular compatibility issue.)
