Are "D.M. Frangopol" and "Dan M. Frangopol" the same person?
-
That's great to hear! Thanks for reporting back.
-
Multilingual Zotero (MLZ) has a Jurisdiction field that is meant to control the citation form. Style development for law is still at an early stage, however, and we don't yet have German styles available. In the short term, you may be best off usin…

Have you tried setting the Language field of the item to "he"? I'm not sure it will help, but it might do.
-
(I may have misread your post) What is your current Firefox version?
-
duncdrum: I've just put up a fresh MLZ release (4.0m355), which incorporates the new code. It also fixes up a lurking issue with creators in some multilingual libraries. The release announcement is here. Let us know how it does with your attachment …

You can now use Google Docs with Zotero, using the recently released RTF/ODF Scan plugin for Firefox and Standalone Zotero.
-
You can now use Abiword with Zotero, using the newly-released RTF/ODF Scan plugin. It does not require any special support in Abiword itself.
-
Sebastian is too modest to say so, but the plugin would not have happened without his input on documentation and coding. We're keen to see users get the most out of this new bridge between Zotero and the various writing platforms in use out there. …
-
Rintze: I agree, this would be a good idea. I'll try to put a document together as a magnet for rotten tomatoes.
-
contromir: The name of a given author needs to be set consistently for each citation in your document. If that's done, the software will format the names correctly. As adamsmith says, this isn't a bug in Zotero or the citation processor: you just ne…

@duncdrum, The m354 release doesn't yet contain Dan's new code. The next revision will be coming up soon.
-
I'll take a look at the chap. issue later today.
-
Is the PDF a top-level item?
-
Thanks for these reports. It may be applying the wrong phrase set to journals. The abbreviations specified at 430-431 are for use with case names or titles, but not with journal names. Univ. is correct in the former context, wrong in the latter. The…
-
Well, that is very odd. A common way for that to occur is for the same source to be cited twice from different items. In that case, Zotero will attempt to distinguish the references by adding names or initials, depending on the style's requirements.…
-
Did you check the trash as well?
-
Check if there are two or more items in your database (not the document) for the Horvath reference, with different forms for the name.
-
Open a fresh document and add a Horvath citation to it in the same style. Does the name appear without initials then?
-
Thanks for the information about the style and the document context. I think I have a handle on the problem now. To follow up, I will prepare a small diagnostic plugin for the issue I have in mind, and send it to you privately. If the cause is what …
-
The list layout does need documenting. The top level ("default" and siblings) is for jurisdictions. Legal styles vary from country to country, and need separate abbreviation lists. For ordinary lists, you can put everything in "default". There isn'…
-
One question concerning that sync error, just to confirm. (The answer is probably "no", but I need to check.) You don't have your Zotero database in Dropbox do you?
-
Two further questions: * What style are you getting this error with? * Do you get this error when that item is entered by itself in a single document? If not, are there other items in your document that have the same title? The reason for the que…
-
Could you edit your post and enclose the CSL code sample in </code> tags? The forum makes it disappear. In the source of the page, the structure of the CSL looks all wrong, but it's possible that the forum formatting engine is doing that. …
-
Also, it would be good to know your MLZ version. You can check with with gear menu -> About Zotero, or by visiting Tools -> Addons -> Extensions in Firefox.
-
Foolslena: The error looks ugly, but it will be fixed. The sync error and the citation issue are probably unrelated. Let's deal with the citation first. In the meantime, you can turn off automatic syncing. I'll need to reproduce the bug here to tr…
-
Thanks very much for this, Dan! I'll merge the latest changes from the 4.0 branch later today.
-
What is a Vancouver bibliography supposed to look like on the page? Second-field-align with the author and title as the first "field" seems an odd formatting combination. The attribute was meant for use mostly with numeric styles, I think.
-
It should be rendering U.S. statutes with § and §§. If you can export an item, I can check the data, to be sure we're talking about the same thing. In the center panel, select the item to export and right-click. Select "Export ..." from the menu, an…

Yes, that would mean that you don't have write access on that group.
