I think we're on the same page. My only point was that sort ordering is a feature of locales on which CSL can depend. Where a locale collation is broken or missing, it needs to be fixed upstream.

If you reset translators, that will restore the standard translator and overwrite the change. Make the change to the file, check that there is no backup file lurking in the directory (i.e. no LexisNexis.js~ file), and just refresh the page in the b…

Have uploaded a patch to zotero-dev that seems to address this LexisNexis Academic breakage. You can either wait for it to work its way through via update, or you can make the fix yourself. The patch (which is just a simple change to one character…

The new CSL processor will use the Javascript localeCompare() function as the basis of sorts (see ECMA-262 [large PDF, relevant discussion is in section 15.5.4.9, see esp. Note 2 to that section]). In Firefox, this function uses the current locale …

True. These insertions that mix references with the main text are tricky to handle without making both the user interface and the underlying software excessively complicated. Unless the overall task can actually be simplified by Zotero's intervent…

Entering the trailing parens and page number into the text by hand would be the way to go with that one. Zotero doesn't see the quotation, so it will just treat a trailing reference as a further citation, as you're finding.
-
A slight update to what I wrote above: we ended up going the distance to include date ranges in CSL 1.0.

As Dan pointed out, you also had the option of setting a longer script timeout, or of disabling the warning altogether. But if uninstalling has resolved things for you, that's great.

@GrandSoar, Some features of the citation processor that will come out later this year will be useful to Chinese users. But they weren't put in there with a view to expanding market share; they were included because I figure they will be useful to…

You've run into a bug in the processor triggered by styles like the APA, that are more aggressive about et al. truncation in subsequent references. To test the behavior, try switching to the style "Harvard Reference format 1". While it's not an im…

Yep, that certainly looks like the same item. Baseline probably won't be implemented in the current processor, but it's not really necessary; if the patch I filed is applied, you'll be able to control the scope of sub- and super-scripting, which sh…

Can't replicate that one. The following entry imports normally here, with a date of January, 2000.@book{doe_book_2000, title = {Book A}, author = {John Doe}, month = jan, year = {2000} }
-
Probably faster to just fix it, since it's a clear bug. I've uploaded a patch for review. If someone who knows their way around Z and BibTeX takes a look at it and finds it acceptable, it should work its way into the source in due course. Meanwhi…

Rolling the cursor over the progress bar may show you a dynamic count of files for upload and download.

I'll ask what may be a silly question, and then get out of the way. Just in case: has your research partner ticked the box "Sync attachment files in group libraries using Zotero storage" in Preferences -> Sync?

That's disambiguation at work. http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/given_name_disambiguation
-
The schemas for CSL 0.8.1 (current) and CSL 1.0 (upcoming) do define a value "baseline" for the vertical-align attribute. Three existing styles use it, but since they don't use any super- or sub-scripting, it's effectively a noop there. I can't fi…

I was able to replicate this locally. On closer inspection, it turned out to be caused by a wrinkle in the RTF specification (RTF being the markup format used to send text to the word processor). It requires (in its wisdom) a special command to tu…

Nothing directly to do with Zotero, but you can piggy-back an OpenID onto your Google account. Visit this address: http://openid-provider.appspot.com/ Click on the "log in" link in "First, log in to your Google account." The page will show you …

Could there be a conflict with other Firefox add-ons that you have installed? (Apologies: I missed item 6.)

The uchicago link gives an article icon here, and the article citation details and attachment download correctly. Have you tried the steps recommended in the troubleshooting translator issues page, linked from the no address bar icon item in the FA…

Bingo. As adamsmith says, Zotero seems to be applying the year suffix for you only when the creator roles (editor, author) are the same. I hadn't tested the new CSL processor on this case, but I have now, and I'm happy to report that it applies th…

I also shied away from translator work after Scaffold went away, for the same reasons. But I've recently returned to it, and discovered that you don't need Scaffold. Zotero itself provides everything you need for incremental development of a trans…

The bibliography entries for the offending items should provide enough info. Here are some steps: (1) Open Zotero (2) Go to the collection that contains both members of an offending pair (3) Use ctl-left-click to select both items (4) Right-click …

Working with the statutes tool that I mentioned over on zotero-dev, it looks like one of its most powerful features will be the ability to do fine-grained searches within a statute or collection of statutes. This thread resulted in the current func…

Can you give an example of what a citation ending in a semicolon looks like in the text, with an indication of where the semicolon comes from (i.e. in the Zotero item, or in the citation affix fields)?
-
It's certainly not random. We'd need to know exactly what is in the items that are not disambiguating for you.
-
For the upcoming citeproc-js processor, I'd like to confirm. Is it enough for the processor to simply honor the normal collapsing behavior of collapse="year"? If that is sufficient, the new processor will be alright with this use case (I've added …

The Modified field shows the time of the last change to the Zotero entry. It is not relevant to the cite, and not accessible via CSL.
