Include Zotero "Link to URI" directly (not via URL field)

Oscar 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 10
Dear All,

As part of my Zotero public group library I am gathering IIIF manifests of included books, as well as links to PDFs and related digital resources. These manifests are included in Zotero through the "Link to URI". I know these can be shown in Bibbase by copying them into the URL field, but this is not a great workflow and was hoping that it is possible to display them directly.

Many thanks in advance!

Oscar

Expand abstracts by default?

Clément C 5 years ago updated by Christian Fritz 5 years ago 3

Hi,

I am using BibBase for an annotated bibliography:

http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~ccanonne/tutorial-focs2020/bibliography.html

and would like to know if there was a way to have the abstracts (in my case, those are the "annotations") expanded by default upon loading the page.

(as a bonus, is there a way to change the text from "abstract" to annotation"?)

Thanks!

Is there a way to specify how "types" are ordered?

f s 5 years ago updated by Christian Fritz 5 years ago 1

By default, when using "groupby=type", the groups are ordered as "article", "inproceedings", etc.  Is there a way to specify a custom ordering?  What I'm trying to do is to have a "preprint" or "misc" type that appears as the first group, i.e., before all the other types.  Any suggestions?

"group by" and "hamburger" dropdown size

Thorbjörn Sievert 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 2

Hey,

I noticed that suddenly the group by and hamburger menu dropdown are weirdly scaled even though I haven't changed my CSS.
Was there some recent-ish change?

Mendeley BIBBASE Not working

amb233 5 years ago updated by Christian Fritz 5 years ago 1

The automatic generation of a publication list from BibBase via Mendeley has ceased working. I use this feature regularly and it has recently stopped working. I had a few of my PhD students check as well and they are also not getting BibBase to generate the bibliography list in the usual way. Can you please advise?

Bibsonomy not working

palpusospam 5 years ago updated by Christian Fritz 5 years ago 5

Hi there,

I'm trying to create the bibbase html code but searching authors in the "bibsonomy" box doesn't do anything. Pressing enter performs no action. The other methods do work. I've tried in different browsers. Is there a bug on this?

Best,

Paul.

Including Automatic Download Counts

Derek 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 6

Hi and thanks for this awesome resource!

I'm using the Javascript embedding method to include my publications, pulled directly from dblp's database (so, not using my own bibtex file). I can't figure out how to enable (supposedly automatic) "Download Count".


For example, as listed for some of the publications on this link: https://bibbase.org/show?bib=http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~fritz/publications/list.bib&theme=default


When I dig into the "bibbase" JS object, it seems like the "downloads" property for each of my publications (in the data member variable) is populated as "0". Not sure if this is a backend problem (i.e., DBLP doesn't provide this info in the bib info that BibBase pulls from them) or just a CSS/etc. setting for how I'm using the JS embedding option.

FWIW, I set .bibbase_stats_paper { display: inline; } but doubt that's the problem... couldn't find any other documentation about this feature.

Thanks for your time and help.

can't log in

beesonpublic 5 years ago updated by Christian Fritz 5 years ago 1

I have been a Bibbase use since 2014 but today I can't log in.  It says my email is not 

recognized.   I should be either beesonpublic@gmail.com  or profbeeson@gmail.com but 

neither works.  (I think I used beesonpublic@gmail.com but it might be the other one.) 

My name is Michael Beeson.   I definitely had an account and I definitely use BibBase on my website.

embed loads slow and overrides prevailing CSS

Joel 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 2

I am encountering some issues with embedding my bibliography. Please see: https://www.theglobalmontessorinetwork.org/history-bibliography

The page takes approx. 12 seconds to load.

The JS appears to override the site's existing CSS.

Is it possible to optimize the pageload and override the style imposed by the JS?
