My knowledge of Spanish publishing terms is about as weak as my knowledge of Spanish, but would this be relevant?
-
It works fine for me here, with the same sqlitebrowser client. Be sure you have Firefox completely closed when you make the copy of the file, and be sure that your WHERE statement actually does match the record(s) you're targeting. Not sure what you…

Try creating a fresh, empty document, select a style and create one footnote in it (to wake it up for Zotero), and then copy and paste the content of the old document into it. Save and close the original copy, try hitting "Refresh" in the new copy, …
-
I've done some quick checking, and it looks like the punctuation will be adjusted correctly with almost any pattern of coding other than the one used by the style. With a hat tip to my senpai Andrea Rosatto, I think it's time to start looking at cle…

I've taken a look at the style code. The processor is meant to handle this case, but something seems to be amiss. I'll spare the technical details (which might sound more like raving than a lucid explanation), but the Chicago styles are coded in a w…

The punctuation-in-quote attribute is not set in chicago-fullnote-bibliography-no-ibid.csl. The default is "false", so punctuation outside of the quotes is normal, unless the option is set with a value of "true". http://citationstyles.org/downloads…

CiNii is pretty much a disaster zone as far as data quality is concerned. They seem to pipe through whatever content they receive from supplying authors and institutions, without performing any sort of centralized quality control. It's a shame, beca…

Probably the programming, I'll take a look soon. One general question before I start: what should happen in styles that put punctuation outside quotes? Should it then appear like this?R. De Hoop, “Judges 5 Reconsidered: Which Tribes? What Land? Whos…

For those who come by this thread, there is some activity going on with legal styles that affects OSCOLA. The original OSCOLA style version in the Zotero CSL repository, which works with official Zotero, is maintained by afonsodasilva. There is a …

@rintze: Right you are; and if that's what the spec says, it's probably already implemented.
-
Yes, that works if the data is clean. Did you import from a file, or from a website?
-
It will be independent of the language set in the browser and the OS, but you raise a good point. At the moment, capitalization will be suppressed only if the item language is set to a non-English value. But if the style itself has a non-English def…
-
If the footnote numbers are coming out as roman numerals, it's likely that would be an issue with Word, not Zotero.
-
whe it's part of a prefixWhen it is preceded by a prefix, yes.
-
Which style are you using?
-
The example given by Odin should have worked correctly. If anything in a cite, including a prefix, is rendered before a term, the term will be printed as it appears in the locale. If nothing is rendered before the term, the initial character will be…
-
Why is merging the items undesirable?
-
If you delete the entry, any documents that you have that were linked to it will break, and it will disappear from any collections where it appeared. If you merge it, it will be preserved in collections, and documents will not break. Merging has the…
-
I'm not completely sure of the steps as you describe them. When you say "I delete one of them", do you mean you are deleting one of the Zotero items, or one of the files (in the filesystem) that is attached to one of the items? In any case, that se…
-
Please read my message again carefully. I haven't suggested that you do anything; I'm asking for information, so that I can fix the system to work as you require.
-
Great. It looks like it will be sufficient to treat Persian names in the same way as names written in latin script or Cyrillic. That way, you can set name-as-sort-order="true", and set sort-separator=" ", and you can also get names in the other orde…
-
For latin and Cyrillic names, we can safely assume that it is always correct to put a space between the first name and last name when printed in that order. That is, "Frank Bennett" is always correct, and "FrankBennett" is never correct. So no speci…
-
Would including the space be correct in all cases, in Persian typography?
-
By "first-name of last-name", do you mean the first word in the "Last Name" field? Or do you mean the space between the "First Name" and "Last Name" fields? If the latter, this can be fixed if you provide us with some guidance. Currently, the proce…
-
@ariek: That's great to hear, thanks for reporting back. Somehow the combination of old and new citation content causes invalid data to be sent to the citation processor. It would be better if this could be caught internally by Zotero and handled a…
-
These aren't proven steps, but there are two things you could try. First, create a new document, and then cut and paste the content from the old (combined) document to the new one. If that doesn't work, return to the old document, open Document Pr…

I have also had problems with Zotero freezing in the classic view. The issue seems to be related to the word-processor integration code. I've not applied those patches to the multilingual client, and it is stable in the classic view. When the patche…

That's the stuff. There are two problems. One is this:<text variable="URL" prefix="<" suffix=">"/>which should be written like this:<text variable="URL" prefix="&lt;" suffix="&gt;"/> The other i…
-
@Robaki, CSL may well be easier than its competitorsThat pretty well says it. Styles are complex, and whatever your favored flavor of interface might be, any tool that controls them programmatically will take some learning. If three hours is too muc…
-
I can't speak for Zotero directly, but I've heard that the core team are busy with completion of the 3.0 client, and that multilingual support is one of the features on the table for 3.5 development. We'll have to wait and see what emerges, but it s…
