The "base" or "baseline" parameter is a noop in the current processor as far as I know. It is included in the CSL 1.0 specification, but I haven't yet bothered to implement it in the new processor. It is unlikely ever to be necessary, if the "sub"…

Oh, dear. I filed a little patch for this a month ago. I just checked my installed Zotero, and it looks like it hasn't made it in yet. If you're up to fixing up the source yourself locally, the patch is available in the Files area on the zotero-d…

Apart from the coding complexity that would be involved, some users might find the automated queries in category 4 to be excessively intrusive, if implemented in Zotero proper. It might be best to think of implementing such functionality in a third…

Try moving vertical-align="sup" from the layout node to the child text node that renders citation-number. The collapse and sort key stuff from citation is irrelevant to superscripting, so if you've added that to bibliography, it can be removed.

Just tacking on to what adamsmith said:while the new processor is done, it's not yet implemented in Zotero - afaik, no styles have been written yet for this csl 1.0CSL 0.8 styles can be converted to CSL 1.0 format; so after the upgrade, it will be p…
-
No guarantees, but give this a spin and see if it does something useful (download the style file via the "raw" link). http://gist.github.com/399263 It's just a rough shot at the problem; the only change from mainstream ASA is at line 50. Good luc…

Hard to say without more information. The field in which style, for example.
-
The ibid thing is automatic; Zotero's citation processor tracks the position of each cite in your document, and when a reference has been used before, a citation style definition (the CSL style) can specify a different form. The rules are a little …
-
This looks like a special form of ibid in a single style, rather than the mixing of two entirely separate styles. If that's a correct reading of your example, then yes, you can design a style that will do this.
-
Is there a reason why the Zotero RTFscan feature can't be used for this? Since it's already been implemented, it might be worth a mention.
-
I can report some new information about this behavior. This is most definitely a bug. The platform and environment is Intel 32-bit, Windows Vista, Firefox 3.6.3, Zotero 2.0.2, WinWord Integration 3.0a3, Word 2007. What we see here is that after o…
-
Another thing that has changed is that a standalone CSL processor is now available, with an API that supports on-the-fly in-document insertion, deletion and editing of citations. I doubt that the Zotero devs have time available to work on an Abiwor…

Coming late to the party, but ... replace term="paper presented at" with value="paper presented at"; and replace term="speech delivered at" with value="speech delivered at" ... and it should work fine.

See, e.g. http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/11561/apa-intext-author-year-should-be-author-year/

Try putting this between the last option element and the following sort element, in the bibliography section: (I tried to think of a way to relate this to "the one that got away", but couldn't; it must be getting late!)
-
That's excellent news. As the saying goes, you now "know how to fish" in the CSL sea. Enjoy your work on the manuscript!
-
Great! I'm glad it clicked. For the capitalization issue, just delete this from the text tag that renders the ibid term: text-case="capitalize-first" For the colon-space issue, add this, either to the label element for the locator variable, or t…

Immediately after the tag, as shown in the recommended changes that I posted before, and that you posted back. The indentation in my original response was not just for decorative purposes; it shows the nesting of the elements, and where the tags a…

Doesn't validate::fatal: The element type "choose" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "".(EDIT: confirmed that the CSL does validate if this single error is corrected. @J.W. Harding: this is an example of the need for "balanced tags". Th…
-
What goes in the first slot depends on what you want the cite to look like for the first reference to a source. If it should be a normal author-date reference like your "subsequent" form, then change else-if position="subsequent to else, change the…
-
I don't have German, but there is an error in your CSL syntax, and the conditional statement leaves out one of the possible positions for a cite. I've made some notes below; adamsmith will follow up, and tell you if I've missed anything, but this m…

Or use tags, or a note in the Extra field, or a saved search. For legal materials, there is a group for working out conventions for which item types and fields are appropriate for particular types of content, and for working up proposals for new it…
-
User-defined types are generally not a good idea (especially for content like legislation that is likely to be widely shared). We do need a better, more transparent and more reliable process for proposing and vetting item type and field proposals, …

Zotero can't consider this (extern stored) discussion in its report-function.You could build an extension plugin that would do so, though. (I suggested an alternative because I don't think a proposal to build forum discussion functionality into the…
-
Zotero itself isn't really designed for use as a discussion forum. You could attach a link to the item that points at a discussion forum (such as a weblog post with comments enabled) that is dedicated to discussion of that item, though. Would that…

Suggestions for improving date handling are certainly welcome. Some of my own research work touches on late Tokugawa and early Meiji Japan, with lunar calendar dates. When I start bringing materials from that period into Zotero, I'll have the same…
-
The "by" term has been added to CSL 1.0, but is not available in 0.8.1. It should start localizing correctly when the new processor comes out.
-
In CSL 1.0, when the editor(s) and translator(s) are the same for a work, the style will automatically list the name once, with the "ed. and trans." label. This has the advantage that it keeps things tidy in the data layer (i.e. inside Zotero itsel…

Sorry if this is not responsive, but you have emptied the trash?

In OO 3.0 (and I assume in 3.2), there is an icon to the left of the styles pull-down menu, on the left end of the menu-bar at the top of the application window. Rolling over the icon, it should declare itself to be for "Styles and formatting" or s…
