Some things are still under construction in the styles, but CMS is now linked from the site.
-
Oops, thanks for the ping. I was busy with some infrastructure work for the multilingual/law book, but that's now out of the way. I'll do a diff of the source and post again either today or tomorrow.
-
On reflection, I probably spoke too soon. The development tools are a creature of my own desktop environment at the moment, thrown together on the fly, and not (yet) particularly friendly. If you are working against deadlines, I'm sure this is somet…

Whoops. The macros do require some extensions. The jurisdiction is derived from the jurisdiction variable (from a controlled list of codes for countries, federal sub-units, and international organizations), mapped to a printed form by the Abbreviati…

The proofsheets are done using the MLZ styles, and I see that I haven't yet put Chicago up there (and I see that I haven't yet put Chicago up there -- coming up in a jiffy). In any case, the MLZ styles won't work correctly in real Zotero (yet) becau…

Sorry about that. Here's a gist of the diff: https://gist.github.com/2175175 and the whole file: https://gist.github.com/2175215

A fix for Chicago is now up. Thanks for the link to the guide; I'll restrict myself to the six styles in the CitationStylist set for the present, but that's useful information.

can you cite inline? Seems I can only do footnotes.Zotero has both inline and footnote styles. If you want to mix the two, you can set up an inline (in-text) style, and create footnotes manually. Short names for cases don't seem to appear 'above n' …

GitHub isn't being nice today. I don't have write privileges on the zotero/translators, and sending a pull request from the clone I use for MLZ wants to give you 124 changes, most of which will break things in mainstream. Here's the patch:[nevermin…
-
If in an old doc, switching away from the style, then switch back does not correct the problem, you could just produce a custom version of the style to run with those documents. That's not terribly satisfactory, but I still can't see how Zotero or t…

Ok. Here is some documentation on multilingual CSL layouts. In your case, you would not need to define separate layouts for English and French; just move all of the code within the citation layout to a macro (say, "render-citation") and the same for…
-
Sure enough, that turned out to be the problem. Zotero is passing through unparsed dates to the processor, and the processor was rendering them unless they were the sole variable rendered inside a CSL group. In such cases, the proce…
-
To get all dates in French, you can change the bibliographyLocale setting.
-
I doubt that it was caused by anything in Zotero or the citation processor; it sounds like there was an internal setting in your OS or word processor related to RTL text somewhere that got stuck or confused. So the problem has gone away?
-
Do you want to have all dates in French, or only those of French entries? It is possible to implement a style with mixed locales, but it's not yet officially supported; all I would be able to do is point you at some documents about how it can be don…
-
First let's establish the context. This is happening with parens added by the style itself? What about parens that you type into the prefix field in the word processor plugin? Nothing in the processor should be touching the former, in any case, and …
-
If anyone who works with patent references is following this thread, it would be great you could take a look at a proofsheet I've just put up on the CitationStylist site. Comments would be helpful; I don't have a very clear idea what these cites sho…
-
It's late here, so I'll leave you in the hands of folks in other time zones now. What we need is to pin down the exact trigger that causes it to fail. Working inside Zotero might be the most promising debugging target for starters, since it removes …
-
You hadn't mentioned that, but the pointer about trying smaller and smaller sets of citations until it succeeds still applies. Are you able to generate a bibliography containing only a single item?
-
Thanks to your feedback, I think I've spotted a bug in the processor that could cause this. I'll make a fresh processor release (version 1.0.303), and when it's been picked up by Zotero you should be able to test with the development XPI to see if i…
-
Sorry, the link was bad. It should click through now.

Oh, wait, no. Chemistry. We have seen styles that are an amalgam of a reference list and endnotes, and this may well be one of them. The short answer (if you really do need pinpoints and backreferences in a number-style reference list) is that CSL c…
-
It sounds like you either just want a list of endnotes (for which you could use a note style, and set the notes as endnotes in the word processor). That will give you ibid and supra backreferences, which you say you need. However ... a little pokin…
-
Try switching to another style, then back again.
-
Okay, everything seems to be in order for versions and etc. There is a possibility that this is caused by a particular item or combination of items in your document. Bugs triggered by input are getting to be pretty rare of late, but we'll start ther…
-
Some information will help pin down the problem (this is not something we're seeing at all lately, so it's likely something that can be sorted out in short order once the cause is identified). Things that will be useful to know are: Which version of…

I think this is what was intended: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/22523/zotero-and-citation-analysis/

It seems like the distinction between citation metadata and other metadata is key. The things in the Zotero info panel mainly serve to identify the source. Most of the fields there tie directly to citations, and it really is important for that part …
-
Sure, you can do that. It's pretty much the same sort of interim workaround suggested by adamsmith, with a bit more flexibility, at the cost of extra typing and added clutter to the database that makes it harder to share entries, but it would work f…

Looks like it is parsed, and by intention. IIRC parsing of uppercase particles was introduced after working through some examples with French users.
