"Add-ins" is the button you clicked to get to the Zotero menu in the word processor (Word 2008). The only copy of Word that I have here is Word 2010 for Japanese, but the screen layout is similar. Please refer to this screenshot: http://img805.imag…

@lichoacademic: The "Document Preferences" that Rintze refers to is in the word processor (under "Add-ins", I think). The Export/Quick Copy preference setting in Zotero itself will not have any effect on an existing document. If you're still having…

No problem at all -- your feedback is very welcome and very helpful. I'll take another look and try to get something up within the day.

Send your report to the developer via the Feedback link in the editor page. He is closest to the editor code (as he is the author of it), and the best source of help.

Is the CSL editor being actively developed? Yes. http://steveridout.com/csl/visualEditor/ There is a comments link in the page. I understand that the grant behind the current round of development runs through the end of this month, so this should…

This may seem a silly question, but just in case ... when you check with gear menu -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Show Data Directory in FF and Standalone, are the two pointing at the same directory?

This can't be done currently, but the need has been explored and it will happen eventually: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/9224/citation-style/

Try updating again, I've just filed a change that may fix this error. (If you find that it still fails after updating, paste the RDF file that fails to http://gist.github.com and post the url here, and I'll take a look.)

Thanks for reporting. I reorganised the online sources at GitHub a couple of weeks ago, and failed to fix the update machinery to accommodate the changes. It's fixed now, I think Update (and maybe restarting MLZ?) will bring things right for you.

Thanks to knewmans and to Rintze for this comment trail. I've tightened up the conditions applied for is-numeric evaluation, and "annotated edition" will now correctly return false. The offending code was a ham-fisted attempt to deal with weird st…

I don't use Word much, but I think there is a "reveal codes" setting in the preferences somewhere. With that turned on, you can see where the extraneous bibliography insertion placeholders are, and delete them.

Anna, Thanks for reporting, and for the test data. If you do gear menu -> Preferences -> General -> Update translators, your sample entry should now round-trip. If you run into further glitches with other item types, just let me know. Exp…

Well spotted. That point of confusion was my doing, I'm afraid. In a future version of CSL, the "editortranslator" term is likely to be replaced by something a little less deceptive, such as "editor-translator".
-
A page range in an item would be used (for example) for the pages on which an article appears in particular journal volume. It would be entered in the "page" field of the item as something like "23-54". It is unrelated to the pinpoint used in an in-…
-
An item can be cited multiple times in the document, each with a separate pinpoint locator. Bibliographies ordinarily contain only a reference to the overall work, and that is what CSL is designed to do; the locator variable is not available in the …

Thanks. I'm just the maintainer of the citation processor. There haven't been other reports of trouble with this in 3.0.8, so I will wait for Simon to take a look at the word processor plugin side before possibly digging into the processor itself. …
-
Just for info at this end, is the range in the item's page field, or in the pinpoint field that comes up in the document? Also, exactly how is the range written into the field (i.e. "1-23", "pp. "45-", etc.).

I don't have much experience with Standalone yet, but this seems to be what you need: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/22789/can-not-importinstall-citation-style-from-csl-repository/

MLZ is now able to apply italics only to transliterated foreign titles, as required by the Taylor Francis style guide (and many others).
-
Note that the storage quota applies only to attachments. References themselves are not counted, and can be stored in unlimited numbers in your account.
-
The difference in sorting behaviour could be due to some difference in the way names data is delivered to the processor, or to a difference in processor versions. The Mendeley forums are your best bet for getting to the bottom of the issue, for sure.
-
With demote-non-dropping-particle="never", I get the first (correct) sort ordering. Have you switched away from the style and then back after making your change to the style node?
-
Just heard back from the editors at Taylor Francis, who confirm that all transliterated titles should be set in italics. This cannot be provided by the CSL style, but we can handle it through language settings in MLZ. It will require a small extensi…
-
It seems odd that the note numbers jump across the page depending on the entry. Is that a style requirement, or is it just the formatting that Word happens to apply when the first character of a note is from an RTL character set? Personally, it woul…

@Chris_hk: The guidance notes for the style raise some issues that I may be able to handle in MLZ -- the application of italics to transliterated titles. The notes are incomplete, and I've written to Taylor Francis for clarification. When I hear bac…

If you have a copy of the document in its state before the error, set aside a copy; the developers may want to take a look at it, or at debugging output from a trigger of the fault. For repairing the production copy of the document, start with thes…

To clarify, the misplaced parens in your example will come out correctly if the dominant text direction is made RTL for the full run of text. However, forcing this across the board for the style would cause LTR cites (a Bluebook reference to a US ca…
-
On the parens issue, it looks as though you are wanting citations in Hebrew to have a dominant RTL text direction. Is this true of the entire bibliography, or should the dominant text direction of cites (as opposed to the directionality of their su…
-
Understood about the initials issue. For parens, yes, I need the data from an item that is producing bad output (as well as a pointer to the style). For the brackets issue, if you export an item affected by this as Zotero RDF, paste the code to http…

Anna, Glad to hear the good news. I just issued a small update that attempts to solve the center-panel display problem for mixed-text titles. Any existing mixed-text entries you have will still display incorrectly following the update, but each wil…
