As you can see from the sort-keys listing, even with the "correct" sort behaviour that Rintze and I are seeing, the sort order is probably not (humanly) correct. One would need to check the sort requirements of CMS, but presumably the joint-authored…

I just tried the Murphy set under a clean Zotero 3.0.7 install, and I get the same sort results that I posted above. If telegraham and anyone else who gets the other sort ordering can post system details, that will help get us started toward figuri…

I don't get the same sort ordering here (Linux Ubuntu, Firefox 12.0, latest citeproc-js version). I can try later with Z 3.0.7, but here is what I get in the bibliography with "Chicago Manual of Style (note)": http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images…

The style isn't valid. I'm not sure whether the errors would prevent it from loading, but they should be fixed up before going further. There is information on validating CSL styles here. The errors are: 1. At line 54, doi should be DOI 2. At line…

Have you changed to style and ID in the file?

@tenekija: Dan is lead developer for the project, and you'll get to an answer soon if you respond to his query. He has asked you to submit Report IDs from Chrome and from Standalone (following the instructions under the link), so that would be the p…

in Zotero wont capture certain pages Comment by fbennett May 9, 2012

Is this information (the names of contributors) for research inside Zotero, or for generating citations? (I ask because the Contributor creator type is not mapped to CSL, and so cannot be used in citations.)

in "Contributor" as default creator for presentation Comment by fbennett May 9, 2012

(I checked the guide earlier [when dw_p flagged this issue on Twitter], and the MISQ guide does not provide any guidance on how URLs should be incorporated into citations. The guide does say to look to articles published in MISQ for examples; but th…

in New style: MIS Quarterly Comment by fbennett May 9, 2012

If you set the two-letter language code of the item in the Language field to the (non-English) language of the item (so es for Spanish, de for German), the English "title-case" capitalization will be disabled for that item.

in Default upper- and lower-case for bibliography Comment by fbennett May 8, 2012

Try Ctrl-Alt-C or Ctrl-Alt-A on the Zotero item.

in Drag item to Gnu Emacs Comment by fbennett May 7, 2012

Very happy at the positive responses on "director" as a creator! That will greatly simplify things. I've posted a proposal to the CSL schema tracker, putting the case for adding a "video" type. The pitch is that we already discriminate on the basis …

in Multimedia metadata Comment by fbennett May 7, 2012

We can pick up the capitalisation issue later. Let's sort through the import behaviour first. You are probably not seeing the speed improvement yet. The main speed boost came from adding a few database indexes that were missing. These don't (yet) g…

Please describe the problem and provide steps to reproduce: http://www.zotero.org/support/reporting_bugs (see especially item 3 in the list)

@qztseng: I've made a few speed improvements to the plugin. There is still no progress indicator, but on my system here it loads the 26,000+ entries in the J_Entrez.json you have produced in about 30 seconds. Give it a try when you have a chance. I…

What do you mean by "resource"? This is a bibliography list in a document?

in paste from Harvard style into zotero Comment by fbennett May 6, 2012

If you are running Zotero 3.0.x it's already there. Gear menu -> Preferences -> General, it's the top radio box setting in the panel.

in Prevent Zotero from auto-opening in Firefox 4 in tab mode Comment by fbennett May 6, 2012

Alternatively would it be better to show a sharp distinction, with something like Fugue's "bank" for statutes ...What's your opinion?I do like "bank" for Statute, myself. .. and put a marker on Fugue's "drawer-pencil" for regulations?And what do you…

A promising tool for editing CSL styles is under development at present (in another lab, but as free and open source software). We should see a release by the end of the year.

in Creating a Citation Style??? Comment by fbennett May 5, 2012

I've been skipping over this thread. This is marvellous, Gracile. In addition to Statute for legislation, we will at some point be wanting to add Regulation (or Order) for enabling regulations and Ministry orders. A couple of inconclusive thoughts:…

That's great to hear, thanks for reporting. If you find other issues relating to Persian support, let us know.

Remembered that I had to add to the Z toolbar for one of my own projects, which is a very similar thing to adding to the gear menu. The overlay setup used for that is here.
