The style is now fixed, and you can get the new version by reinstalling from the Zotero styles repository. Let me know if you would like me to look into the names issue.

The CSL Visual Editor works for both in-text and footnote styles.
-
The in-text reference should be [2-5] in your example, yes? If so, it can be fixed easily; just let us know. wrong: [5] 张水松, 陈长发, 吴克选, 占有生,何寿庆. 杉木林间伐强度试验20年生长效应的研究[J]. 林业科学, 2005, 41(5): 56–65.I can't reproduce t…

Can't citeproc-js support both?It can do. The simple thing in the short term will be to keep the Zotero mappings as they are, and map titleShort to title-short and journalAbbreviation to container-title-short in the processor. The Zotero input valu…
-
The "shortTitle" and "journalAbbreviation" variables are used as the source for the constructs and respectively. They are not meant to be rendered directly. I'll let Rintze respond on the other two.
-
The MLZ styles currently map filingDate to the original-date CSL variable, but the mapping could be changed to "submitted" if that is preferred.

The yellow folder icons are "collections" -- bundles of references from that particular library. To create a group, visit the zotero.org website, click on the Groups tab, and find the "Create a New Group" link. After you have created the group onli…

It is not possible to test for field content in CSL. You can accomplish this with the Abbreviation Filter, though. There is some documentation on use of the plugin here. You can ignore the stuff on installing external abbreviation lists. Essentiall…

For institution-heavy cites, there may be a need to cite institutions together with their acronym or abbreviation. A style used inside one of the U.N. bodies requires that. Another wrinkle is joint authorship by an individual and a parent organizati…

fbennett: MLA International Bibliography is a database (in this case maintained by EBSCO, there are also Proquest and Gale versions), distinct from the MLA citation style.Aha. Nevermind then. I think for anyone managing 25 page bibliographies that's…

Are both computers syncing to the same Zotero account?
-
@palettemuse, If you decide to drop Zotero for this project, that's fine; it's just a tool, and you should choose tools that you feel comfortable with. Some of the problems you mention are things that no one else has mentioned (as far as I know). …

I've checked behaviour in Windows 7 this end, and I'm able to reproduce your result with "De Quincey" (as a unit) and "Deniehy", where "De Quincey" comes out first. The sort is functioning as intended, applying the collation definition for the local…

There should be no problem with that.
-
I'll try to investigate this locally, but I may be back for help later.
-
It's up in the latest MLZ release, if you want to give it a try.
-
(Rintze has now confirmed, so 1.0.407 is a wrap.)
-
This is now fixed, pending confirmation by Rintze. Good catch, Gracile. @Dan & @Simon: The 3.0.9 release should use the latest citeproc-js version (1.0.407) for full CSL 1.0.1 support.
-
I'm not sure whether there might be a case for some warning when the user ID in the Sync panel is changed ... but two thoughts: (1) If your database still exists on your other computer (and you have turned off automatic syncing there to be sure it …
-
For that level of precision with legal references, you should probably look to Multilingual Zotero and the MLZ styles. http://citationstyles.org/. Those particular items (court submissions, reports, and committee hearings) are not yet fully impleme…

The first step is just to confirm the details of your environment. If I can find a similar system here, I may be able to test directly, without bothering you with cumbersome back-and-forth. The relevant bits would be: Firefox version Operating syst…

In MLZ, the Date Decided field is mapped to a different CSL variable ("original-date", instead of "issued"), which can yield cites with missing dates. I'm about to take MLZ through an update cycle, to bring it into line with the current code for Zot…
-
On the bibliography update issue, while putting together a test, I realised what the problem is. There is no change in the visual form of the citation between the with-quotes form and the without-quotes form. As far as the processor is concerned the…
-
There may be a couple of layers to the problem. One is updating of the bibliography (more on that below). The other is the comparison method used for the sort. Ordinarily this should be done with a collation that ignores the space between characters…
-
Great. It's definitely a fault, so we'll work on getting it fixed.
-
It sounds like collateral updates (what I call "tainting") is not working correctly inside the CSL processor when this type of disambiguation is triggered. I'll try to build a test and get it fixed in the next processor release. If all goes well the…
-
I've just done some testing in MLZ. I'm not sure whether the behaviour I'm seeing is shared by mainstream Zotero, but here's something to try. In MLZ (at least) the bibliography sort order is not updated when the name changes in this way. I'm not su…
-
Are you willing to give Multilingual Zotero (MLZ) and its companion styles a try? It is not the official Zotero release (and so not supported by the core developers), but it is kept in step with mainstream Zotero updates, and it is designed to produ…
