An alternative approach is to save PDFs to your hard drive, drag them into Zotero, and then retrieve metadata for them from within Zotero. See https://www.zotero.org/support/getting_stuff_into_your_library#adding_pdfs_and_other_files for some docume…

https://www.zotero.org/support/forum_guidelines#etiquette Seems easy enough to help you out with your particular question, but you'd have to ask nicely.

As a concrete example, if I search for "Chen" in the Quick Format Citation dialog, the top 7 results all happen to be papers for which the first author is "Chen". However, only the 7th search result exists in my currently selected Zotero collection,…

I created a pull request at https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/pull/1734 If you can take a quick look and let me know if it looks okay, I'll merge it.

In general, you can delete files on GitHub by following the instructions at https://help.github.com/articles/deleting-files/. For our repository, we always try to set up a replacement style for any style that we delete. This allows programs like Zo…

I don't see how this could be caused by unminifying TinyMCE, but that looks like the only potentially relevant change. Is that possible? This might be a long shot, but maybe unminified TinyMCE has a conflicting global variable name that messes thing…

You might find http://docs.citationstyles.org/en/stable/primer.html illuminating. It's meant as an introduction to CSL. MLZ/Juris-M use a slightly different flavor of CSL, but the foundations are very similar.

Ah, I totally missed that. Sorry we didn't spot it and help you figure this out! If only there was an easy way to add these tags!
-
We can also remove harvard1 from the Zotero styles pages, since we do support renamed-styles.json That might be an interesting experiment, but I rather fix this in the styles repo. A while back we renamed several of the standard Zotero styles, and I…

I was assuming that there'd be a span around the particle with a class indicating its type, at least for some of the modes, but maybe that doesn't make sense. Well, in the case of "de Gaulle", "de" is not a particle at all (in CSL parlance at least)…

From https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/51783/?Focus=234888#Comment_234888, since I was going off-topic there: Has it? To be clear, I was really just talking here about the menu and markup for this, which would either not be HTML or be more compli…

If you're on a tight deadline, there is a workaround available that doesn't require you to edit every occurrence by hand: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/3875/rich-text-in-titles/?Focus=26555#Comment_26555 The automatic conversion should just …

Colored tags show for me in the middle pane with Firefox 41.0, Zotero 4.0.28.4, and OS X 10.10.5.

One thing I'm not clear on: with appropriate HTML markup, a GUI menu, and flexibility of presentation, would the display of the particles in the given vs. family name field still be ideal? Or is that just a workaround given the plain text? I feel we…

I understand the situation around 4.0 and 5.0. I'm just railing against your opinion that: when people add manual markup, they understand that it's a hack. That's not the case with a GUI menu. Adding a button that caused markup to show up in the cre…
-
if we can do this all via HTML and don't need additional fields, this can happen in 5.0 proper I don't agree with your reasoning, even if 5.0 is just around the corner. I understand why you might dislike unparsed markup in Zotero UI fields, but what…

I think RIS and BibTeX are on their own — if they don't have a mechanism for dealing with this, there's not much point in worrying about it. The answers at http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/204697/how-to-correctly-typeset-an-authors-two-word-la…

Unfortunately for Zotero itself we'll need a solution that doesn't corrupt the fields, as the double-quotes do. Would removing the "fixed-name"/double-quote option from the right-click particle menu make it acceptable as an interim solution? Users m…

I just got the same "An error has occured. Please restart Zotero" error, with Zotero Standalone 4.0.28, Windows 7. The error report says "[JavaScript Error: "State check failed due to transaction in progress"]". Report ID 1962310018. I had just sta…

Yeah, I agree that there are too many options currently, and that the options are difficult to understand. Based on the previous discussions, capitalized particles are treated as non-particles and lower-case as non-dropping, so I don't think there's…

Semicolon?

Ah, okay. I get it now. Not sure it's clear enough, though. How about forgoing headers, and only alphabetizing the list (is that really problematic?). That would change (dos al-Pitkin) Pitkin, Lemuel dos al- (dos Al-Pitkin) Al-Pitkin, Lemuel dos…
-
Yeah, that right-click menu for articles in your online Zotero library is just the standard right-click menu of your internet browser.
-
I don't really understand those headers. E.g. "(Al-Pitkin) Al-Pitkin, Lemuel dos" is listed under "Fixed surname", but "dos" is a dropping particle here, right?
-
Is that a correct spec for "uit den" and the other pure Dutch particles? Yes, although that means that for ambiguous particles, the menu would have even more options, right?
-
I like the new version, and would love to see something like it in Zotero. The number of options increases rather quickly with two or more particles (made worse because of all the capitalization variants), but I guess we'd need them all. I noticed t…

@fbennett, in my example above I chose to not show the actual two-field content in the menu. I think users can quite easily observe how the name formatting has changed after selecting the desired display format, and adding the information to the men…
-
Great work! But wouldn't it make more sense to show formatted names with "name-as-sort-order" active? That would show how particles are demoted.
-
This wouldn't be a minor change, though, since we'd need to switch to visual HTML editing of affected fields Would you support the addition of just the shortcuts and context menu as a stop-gap measure? I don't see how that's any worse than the curre…
