(Edit: here, I'm missing something simple.) This sounds like the effect of disambiguation, although you do say that one of the affected cites is unique. A couple of further things to check are: (1) if that article (by the same author) is cited mor…
-
Two questions follow: What style are you using? and are other works by the same first author cited elsewhere in your document?
-
I've heard that it is possible to edit citations in the document in recent versions. I assume that it would have the same effect as the old edit-via-plugin-popup method. Have you tried checking to see if the editing panel in the Classic plugin view …

Hmm. An update on this item. I've been looking at the code and tests, and we're actually handling everything mentioned in that thread (open and close guillemet, terminal punctuation with a preceding space) by replacing a plain space with a thin no-b…

@Gracile: Sorry for the delay in responding. To kick-start this again, let's start with some tests, so I don't get confused about the requirements. We have two that seem relevant: FrenchApostrophe FrenchOrthography The FrenchApostrophe test is pl…

Inside the citeproc-js processor, it might be possible to piggy-back this on the names disambiguation registry. If names were to remember their first-mention position within the document, it might be possible to leverage that for dynamic refreshes (…

5) could one day be handled with a language hint on the name field. This is not possible currently, but language hints are available in an experimental version of Zotero, and are used there in this way (to control the specifics of name formatting, f…

Yes, this isn't supported, and unless there are demands for it from multiple quarters, it's not likely to be implemented anytime soon. Glad to hear you've got the style working to your satisfaction otherwise.
-
On the citation tag of the style, you should find an attribute collapse="year" or collapse="year-suffix". Remove it, and all citations will be listed fully, even when there are common authors.
-
This change is the likely culprit. I don't work with LTR languages myself, so please be patient with me: I might be a little slow on the uptake. The first question is whether this is going to interfere with your writing. Are there language combinat…
-
Yep. I've checked that with both MLZ and the tip of the 3.0 branch, and it renders correctly in both.
-
With the data and style posted by cadudesun and the latest processor version, I don't get the empty cite error. It was either related to the plain-text cruft in the style (?), or changes since the 3.0.3 release have squashed whatever bug was causing…
-
Is your style configured to sort the citations?
-
Your code is a mix of CSL 0.8 and CSL 1.0 syntax, so it will definitely break in various ways. Validate the style, and work through the errors until it is valid against the CSL 1.0 schema.
-
The file in the repository will do the right thing. My explanation above was correct, apart from the part that I've marked as in error: the cites will be grouped by author, with groups sorted by first-occurring date, and cites within each author gro…
-
I take that back in part. The grouping is implicit, but whether the grouped cites are sorted by year or by author does indeed depend on the key. Sorry for the initial mix-up. The revised style should be available now. I've removed the author key fr…
-
Is it actually sorting incorrectly? The grouped sorting is implicit, so it's a question about the actual output you're seeing, not about the CSL coding.
-
Unless a bug has crept into the works, by design that wouldn't have any effect in this case. When sorted by date, [with or without an author key]
-
Okay, I've checked in a fresh processor release (version 1.0.293) that will use hyphen for the page range delimiter if the default-locale of the style is set to Portuguese (pt, pt-BR or pt-PT). The new behavior will appear automatically when the new…
-
Is this a uniform practice in Portuguese?
-
The "basic form" is the form that the citation would take in an a non-numeric style in a subsequent reference (a reference after the first one that is not an ibid reference). The processor uses that form to decide whether disambiguation (i.e. adding…
-
@cadudesun: Is this required by a style guide? If so, can to provide a link or a reference to the style?
-
@cadudesun: My note above is about future avenues for development. There is currently no way to do what you want to do in CSL. You would have to put the bold tags directly into the content field, which isn't really desirable since few styles need bo…
-
There is a hanging bug that manifests when: (1) single-field names or names without a name element appear in the cite; (2) givenname disambiguation is in effect with the by-cite rule; (3) the name is rendered with an initialize-with attribute; and (…

The Bluebook(TM) requires similar treatment for law case items obtained from a commercial content provider, but only when no "print" version of the judgment is available. In the MLZ law styles, I've used abused the "archive" variable to hold the pro…
-
A bit of good news. The fault did lie in the processor code. I'll spare you the technical details, but I'm applying a fix in the processor, and when it is picked up by Zotero for the next release, this problem will go away.
-
I'm not a Word expert, but have you accepted the changes? So long as the history of old changes is recorded in the document, there is a possibility that it could trip things up.

That was the right thread to link to; the underlying cause is exactly what is described there. The issue is well understood, the fix should be straightforward as well (I think). Here are some further details ... Following those earlier reports, I s…

While this isn't supported, there are some solutions on the drawing board. An interesting suggestion in the archives comes from Dan, writing two and a half years ago:I don't suppose there's any chance that the Short Title field will always be a left…
