It is actually possible to do this, but the style needs to be coded to support it. The structure used is not valid CSL, so you will get a warning when you install the style, and it will not be accepted for inclusion in the Style Repository. The str…

The fix is now available. To try it out, install this plugin. (All it does is to swap the revised citation processor for the one contained in Zotero. You can uninstall it when the next Zotero release comes out.)

@hhajar2002: Follow the link provided by mronkko; it answers your question. The answer is also given by Dan and mronkko above: you can charge any price you like, but if you sell your program in binary form, you must supply the source code for no ad…

This is the effect of disambiguation, but at least some of the expanded cites you see may be due to a processor bug that adds names more aggressively than desired. I have just completed some fixes to address the bug. Please install this plugin and …

There is a bug in the citation processor that throws unnecessary given names more aggressively than it should in styles like Elsevier Harvard. Your timing is good; I have just completed the necessary fixes. Please install this plugin and let us kn…

I have good code for this now. There will be some impact on the processor test fixtures, some of which assumed the former all-names default. Changes to test results means changes in user documents, so once I get things tidied up, I'll post a set of…

@boombat13: As @mronkko says, we need a more complete description in order to HELP. Taking a guess, it sounds like you may have made changes to items in the Zotero database after inserting citations into your document? In that case, just click the …

The tests I built this morning must have been badly constructed. I've found the actual source of the bug now. Unfortunately it's going to be down the rabbit hole for me again on this one: fixing the problem has caused things to come unglued elsewher…

@epederick, I've read through your post, and I'm listening. From where you have arrived, you can run conversion, using the command suggested by @adamsmith -- with zodfscan.py file and input file in the same folder, and using ./zodfscan.py (with bot…
-
(And that's why I agreed with you, Dan.)
-
Uh-oh. I'm off to work now, I'll have another go a bit later.
-
I realize of course that the names should be aligned in correct data, it was just the first example that I could come up quickly.The sample was well-chosen -- the misalignment was the key feature that exposed the bug.
-
It's fixed now. The tests were all passing, so I missed the fault (for a long time -- sorry for the frustration over this). It was initialised badly, which only seems to have caused problems when running in the client. You can run the new code using…
-
There is only the one bug. It should be defaulting to by-cite, but it's using all-names instead. I'll check into it. The disambiguation is not using initials because the sample data has "Kathleen A" and "Kathleen Ann", so it renders the full name t…
-
@adamsmith You're right of course, this was easy. When I remembered the stop-list for prepositions (d'oh!), I just added these, and it worked. Including these common particles from the next release should be no problem. As Rintze says, comprehensiv…

I've set this up in the processor. It will a day or two before I release it; there is some other new code in the processor that I'd like to sit on for a little while before it goes out.
-
We're treading into fix-and-refix territory when applying heuristics to the field content. The processor recognises a tag for "don't change the case of this item", but it's an ugly verbose HTML span thing, and messes up sorts in the UI. Maybe eventu…

Which style?
-
I guess you're right, it will be an issue for xbiblio. This will be awkward until "status" becomes available in Zotero.
-
Do we have any conditionals that would catch a non-date value in the date field? If so, the position of those values could be controlled with a separate key. That would give some flexibility, in case other needs arise.
-
These should be at the top of the list?
-
Yes. Large documents are a bottleneck. They can be sped up, but it will require attention from the developers. There's no short-term solution for that one.
-
For that approach, you would have to insert them using the "Edit bibliography" button in the word processor (hence "tedious"). Pasting the full thesis text after the chapter you're printing would be simpler, although it might be slower to refresh.
-
It would be a little tedious to set up, but if the individual chapters were given a bibliography that had all of the cites in the full document registered as uncited items, you should get proper disambiguation. Or just paste the full thesis text aft…
-
since i don't want to use "disambiguate-add-names", i added a second "fake" name to the first source, and it works.Why not just add et-al-use-first and et-al-min attributes to the citation element, to limit the number of included names? It's describ…

Let's fix this right; you shouldn't need to fuss around to get correct output. Here is a copy with explicit year-suffix: https://gist.github.com/fbennett/5354563 I've added a proper ID. The ID you had in there before was only the stub URL of the…
-
It shouldn't make any difference, but I would remove the blank lines from the style. They shouldn't hurt anything, but you never know.
-
After changing "physic" to "physics" (a trivial fix, this wouldn't have affected operation of the style at all), the style validates. In a test, the style provides year-suffixes on a pair of items with type "thesis" and "article-journal". It seems …
-
Exactly so. The problem isn't with copyright, but with the terms of service, to which fair use and the first-sale doctrine do not apply. Your use is perfectly orthodox, it's just a matter of not getting incidentally squashed. Discretion is the bett…
