Including Automatic Download Counts
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.
Javascript code does not work with XHTML
Adding the suggested javascript code does not work with xhtml. I get an "XML Parsing Error: not well-formed" message.
Any idea how to fix?
can't log in
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
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?
URL and PDF symbols break formatting
Hey,
I really like Bibbase.
One issue I keep encountering is as soon as I add a link, the symbol (no matter which symbol) does not seem to scale properly and breaks the single line layout.
This does not happen with the small text for doi, abstract etc.
See top entry at https://tsievert.com/publications/
Edit: I just added
img.bibbase_icon { max-height: 16px !important; }
to my CSS, but the problems remains.
Dropdown menus not working
I created a bibliography and used the recommended javascript code to embed it in my site. However, the dropdown menus do not work in Chrome or Firefox. I'm not a programmer, but it seems java is not interacting correctly with sitefarm. Two questions (i) is there an easy fix for this?, and (ii) if there is no fix, how do I disable the group by and sort dropdowns?
Here's my site: https://deloachchair.sf.ucdavis.edu/publications
Thanks.
\href in bibtex not working
I use href in my bibtex file; for example,
@unpublished{GTV,
title = {Graph-based regularization for regression problems with alignment and highly-correlated designs},
author = {Y. Li and B. Mark and G. Raskutti and R. Willett and H. Song and D. Neiman},
note = {accepted to SIAM Journal on Mathematics of Data Science, \href{https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.07658}{arXiv:1803.07658}},
year = 2020
}
But the web page generated at https://bibbase.org/show?bib=https%3A%2F%2Fvoices.uchicago.edu%2Fwillett%2Ffiles%2F2020%2F03%2FWillettMerged.bib&msg=embed doesn't display the link properly; rather, it shows
Graph-based regularization for regression problems with alignment and highly-correlated designs. Li, Y.; Mark, B.; Raskutti, G.; Willett, R.; Song, H.; and Neiman, D. 2020. accepted to SIAM Journal on Mathematics of Data Science, \hrefhttps://arxiv.org/abs/1803.07658arXiv:1803.07658
How should I fix this? Should I use something besides href for links to papers?
Thanks for the help!
Yes, BibBase doesn't understand Latex completely, only some of it's commands. Links to papers should be out in a url field (for details see here). For to-be-published papers we recommend using the to-be-correct bibtex entry type, in your case @article, and making the note read "To appear." or similar. Does that work for you?
authors with different numbers of initials do not get merged
When I group my publications by author I noticed that my bibtex file is inconsistent in that the same author might be listed with a different set of initials in various places. Although BibBase seems to know how to handle this for spotting author links, it does not do so when I group my publications by author. As I pull my bibtex file together from different (dynamic) sources, rectifying this is beyond my powers. Can you take care of this issue? Thanks. Koen.
Bib file does not render fully when abstracts are included
I have been using BibBase for a few years and it seems there is a regression where my .bib file no longer renders completely.
Below is an example from https://bibbase.org/show?bib=fsaad.mit.edu%2Fpapers.bib&msg=embed. Only publications from 2018 to 2020 are rendered while the rest have disappeared.
If I remove all the "abstract" entries from the bib file, as in https://bibbase.org/show?bib=fsaad.mit.edu%2Fpublications.bib&msg=embed, it all renders correctly (which I am using for now on my homepage):
Any idea on why the papers do not render if I include "abstracts", and any suggestions on how to fix the issue? Thanks.
OK, so after a lot of digging and testing with different tools I found that your server requires its requestors to send a
'Connection': 'keep-alive'
header. Without it, it will drop the connection after some TCP packets manifesting in errors like "ConnectionResetError: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer". So the abstracts only really matter in so much as they increased the file size beyond that limit.
I've just pushed an update to bibbase.org that makes sure that header is no included in all bibtex file requests and your original URL with the abstracts (papers.bib) is working now.
Thanks a lot for reporting. While most servers don't just hang up on requests, it is possible that some other users have been affected by this issue as well. Much appreciated!
