The docs are written in reStructuredText. Anything in plain text is fine; it's easy to touch up the formatting. (On our server issue, this turns out not to be a problem in our DNS. Line was busy when I called at help-counter opening time, and a ref…

Anything you write will be of use, certainly.

Yep. Documentation robs the world of all its mystery and wonder. :) (I noticed this morning that the site serving the multilingual client (gsl-nagoya-u.net) is down. I'll be calling the hosting service shortly when their help counter opens -- I thi…

Great. If you have a github account, send me the ID (via a forum message if you prefer) and I can set up a repository and give you direct checkin privileges. The documentation situation does need to be addressed. I'll study git a bit more, and see …

(Oops, sorry, missed that. Word has a fast-access API that would help, but Zotero developers have not been allowed access to it.)
-
If you have a Zotero-generated bibliography in the document, deleting it may speed things up a little. You can then reinsert it at the final stage.
-
I've found the bug in the citation processor and applied a fix. The next Zotero release will be more well behaved on this. Thanks for the report. (Edit: While the processor was clearly messing up, I'm not sure what that cite is supposed to look lik…

As ajlyon indicates above, the normal way to handle the case you describe is to type the author into the text, an then tick the "Suppress author" box when adding the citation. This does require that you type the author into the text by hand, but apa…

Great, it sounds like everything is working for you as designed. Currently, terms only follow the item locale if the locale set on one of the cs:layout nodes matches. If there is no match, terms from the style default locale will be used. We have t…

(At a guess, it's entered in the date field, as "(in press)". I can confirm that the second parens is quashed in that case, which shouldn't be happening. I'll take a look.)
-
Jon, How is "in press" entered in Zotero?
-
"Ibid." should certainly never occur in the bibliography. I am unable to reproduce this in Open Office, and there have not been any similar reports. What style are you using?
-
Second these.
-
But this is but a workaround, as it should be zaprezentowana (feminine) if we're speaking of, say, work or paper, which are feminine in Polish, but zaprezentowany (in case of, say, lecture, which is masculine in Polish). To add to the confusion, all…

I am seized by a curious temptation to make a comment involving Emperor Norton, but in view of my role as a mere project volunteer, I will refrain from doing so. I'm sure the developers will be happy to respond to your concerns.
-
If you move the default layout from the top of the list to the bottom, it should work. (Edit: What you should get is just one "cite-*" output string per cite, with "cite-gen" firing where no language or an unlisted language is specified on the item…

@grubs: As adamsmith says, specifics in a style guide or clear evidence of convention would be needed to justify shifting the disambiguation method of a style. For your local version, though, the kind of disambiguation you describe can be invoked by…

Re (1) in Zotero 2.1, if a name is being expanded, the other name that triggers the expansion should be visible in the document.
-
Yes, there is a converter.

You'll need to deal with those red errors. The CSL 1.0 specification is here. There is also a primer, which you may want to take a look at first. It's not surprising that you get different results in Zotero and Mendeley with an invalid style file.…

Bravo, Jack. Your post really is a model of pointless ranting. I'm not an artist myself, but I can imagine this would make a splendid caption to a cartoon pinned on the office wall. (If your intention was not to entertain, please forgive. In that c…
-
This isn't possible at present: the comma + space after 1997 in your example is supplied directly by the processor, and is hard-wired. There is a development ticket for allowing this delimiter to be specified in CSL styles, but the approach hasn't b…
-
Your best bet would be to go through the steps for debugging broken documents, and see if that will clear up the error.
-
No, it doesn't.

PLEASE DON'T POST REPEATEDLY ABOUT THE SAME TOPIC. WE CAN HEAR YOU. AS IT HAPPENS, WE DID DO SOMETHING FOR EUROPE, AND MUCH OF THE WORK WAS DONE BY EUROPEAN CONTRIBUTORS. ZOTERO 2.1 USES CSL 1.0, WHICH IS DESCRIBED HERE: http://citationstyles.or…

Use the "prefix" field in the popup, instead of editing the citation itself.
-
@adamsmith Yikes, that's definitive. We're good, then.
-
Very pleased to meet you. For my part, I'm a full-time working academic with limited time to deal with student queries. :P Humor aside, I see the issue, and can confirm. It would be helpful to have this pinned down with specific guidance from the s…

Thanks -- that really simplifies things at this end. I've put up a fresh release of the processor (v1.0.183) that fixes this. The logic of punctuation reconciliation isn't written down in detail anywhere, and it's not part of the CSL spec. I (liter…
