I finally got around to implementing implicit linking of URLs and DOIs in the citeproc-js CSL processor. The developers will need to take a look, but if the facility passes muster, automatic linking will become available in a future Zotero release.
-
The tricky bit with internal linking is the reverse reference, from the bib entry back into the text. In that direction, there can be multiple targets, and each application that uses the processor will want to handle it a little differently. There i…

I'll probably implement this in the processor within the next month or so. It will be a significant change in behavior, so we'll need to step gingerly, and it will be up to the core team whether and exactly how to make the facility available, but th…

a new Item type "Treaty"Yes indeed. Treaties have too many special characteristics to be handled through existing types. The weird syntax in the Extra field is currently used to force the item type to "treaty", but the need for that will go away eve…
-
Proofsheets for treaty cites in the six citation styles covered by the MLZ Zotero for Law project are now available. Full document and a fuller set of example cites will be forthcoming later, but the early proofs show the processor working with this…

When you click on "Tools" in Firefox, does Zotero show up in the menu?
-
That part looks fine. If you paste the style to http://gist.github.com, save it as a Public Gist and paste the URL from the address bar back here, I can take a look at it tomorrow (it's evening here, I'll soon be sleeping).
-
No worries, we're on your side here. Be sure to set aside interim copies of the manuscript somewhere as you go along; that will give you the security of quick recovery in case things get into a twist.
-
This is planned. There is a problem to be addressed behind the scenes before it can happen, with characters that look the same on the screen, but are represented by different codes underneath. It's not a flaw in Zotero particularly, but a wrinkle in…
-
Ah, okay, got it. The processor can't do that.
-
Good luck, hope it goes smoothly. Give a shout if you run into difficulties.
-
It shouldn't make a difference, but lowercase (it) is good for Italian, (fr) is good for French. In fact, any two-character string other than "en" should do the trick, but there may be benefits to telling the truth going forward, as more language-se…

Have you validated the style? If not, follow the steps for validation, and fix up any signficant errors. You're getting abbreviations and punctuation from the English locale. The original style uses the German locale, which does suggest that somethi…

If you add a language code in the Language field, it should take effect in existing footnotes when you click refresh.
-
You can disable ibid completely, but you can't discriminate between ibid referring to a sole reference to the same source in the preceding citation and a preceding reference to the same source within the same note (if that's the thrust of the questi…
-
Great stuff. I'll try to look at the panel-versus-pinned-app activation issue sometime in the next week or two.
-
Thanks. I'm just surprise that it inserts something, and I wonder what CSL variable is used to render it. Title, perhaps? In any case, the citation processor will not modify the content; whatever is received in an ordinary field as input will be out…
-
But how are you adding the notes to the document?
-
It's not clear to me what people are doing here. Is this about text entered in the Extra field of a Zotero item, or proper note items (either standalone or attached to an item) that are somehow being sent to the CSL processor for insertion into the …
-
Including trash?
-
If the PDF is a child attachment to a Zotero item, the source can be added as a sibling to the PDF.
-
(For posterity: this item was resolved.)
-
I finally picked this up. "eu" will be properly recognized as Basque in the next processor release.
-
Patent cites should be correct now in the MLZ styles. If there are problems, let me know.
-
It sounds as though mapping the language field would be your preferred solution?
-
Replacing the "access" macro with this should produce that result (assuming that you do not place anything in the URL field on items that are not downloaded from the Internet). Be sure to change the title and ID of your style, so it doesn't get ove…
-
It depends on whether you want URLs to appear instead of the DOI, or want to suppress both of them.
-
Oh, right, okay. When an alternative creator variable is rendered via substitute, it is suppressed through the rest of the citation. That behavior follows the CSL specification. To render the editor twice in this case, you will need to construct a …
-
Paste the code of the full style to http://gist.github.com, save it as a Public Gist and post the URL from the address bar back here, and we'll take a look. (Just guessing, but it's likely due to invalid syntax somewhere in the CSL code.)
-
It depends on whether you want URLs to appear instead of the DOI, or want to suppress both of them. (Edit: the relevant code starts at around line 128 in the style. It should be fairly obvious what to do; feel free to post back if you get stuck.)
