No Data message (sometimes)?

RJS 11 ár síðan updated by Christian Fritz 11 ár síðan 8
Hello, I love bibbase but it has some very interesting behaviour where, at times, it shows "No Data" for my publications using my bib file on the web:

http://www.sethi.org/research/papers/my_papers.bib

This file was working fine for a month and suddenly it's stopped with a "No Data" message. Is there an error in the file, perhaps? I used Mendeley to generate it automatically.

Hi Ricky,

I don't know what the problem was, but I cleared the cache and now it seems to be back to normal. Please verify that it looks OK.

One thing you can try if it happens again is to touch/edit your bib file in order to enforce a cache refresh. But if it happens, please still let me know. Maybe it's indicative of a different problem I'm not aware of. You are the first user to report this problem though.

Embed not working in Chrome. Works in safari/FF

Saad Bhamla 11 ár síðan updated by Christian Fritz 11 ár síðan 5
I have incorporated bibbase on our website (https://web.stanford.edu/group/fullergroup/cgi-bin...,
but the bib base does NOT show up in chrome (only in safari and FF).

Is it because of the iframe being embedded with http, but the website is https?

include conference papers

Martin Roth 10 ár síðan Uppfært 10 ár síðan 2
it would be great if bibbase could recognize and format conference papers from Zotero correctly. For now, I'm duplicating all entries of my own works and move the conference name into the "proceedings" field, but this is not ideal and I don't think the "In" bibbase uses to mark the publication is really accurate. Just another suggestion.

bibbase is linking to my paper by doi rather than to the pdf in my bibtex file.

Michael Beeson 10 ár síðan updated by Christian Fritz 10 ár síðan 4
Why? And how can I prevent it? I want users to get the pdf.

Not a bug

Author links

Benjamin Parrell 9 ár síðan updated by Christian Fritz 9 ár síðan 3

Bibbase seems to be automatically generating links for authors who aren't bibbase users (e.g. http://sites.udel.edu/speech-lab/publications/)


Would like to suppress those links if possible.

Problems to display citations since v3

Stéphane Dray 12 ár síðan updated by Christian Fritz 12 ár síðan 1

Hi,


Since bibbase v3, there is an extra comma or dot just before the year in the citations of articles (

see http://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/members/dray/publications.php for an example). Moreover, the formatting has changed (fot size for journal name and volume, pages, year) but I have probably to correct my css file.


A last bug can be observed at http://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/members/dray/talks.php : conference name is repated two times (in confname of confname). Perhaps this problem is more related to mendeley than bibbase? In my bibtex file (auto-generated by mendeley), the conference name appears only in 'booktitle' but it seems to appear twice in bibtex file hosted on mendeley.com (in 'series' and 'booktitle' fields).


Thanks for your work


Cheers

Hi Stephane,


Thanks for pointing out the glitch in the new rendering of article entries. This was easy to fix.


The second problem you pointed out, indeed seems to be an issue with the mendeley API. I've put a hack in place that just doesn't show the series entry if it is the same as booktitle. This seems to be a safe assumption and solves the problem for your case.


cheers,

Christian

parsing of url from mendeley does not consider multiple urls

Walter Karlen 11 ár síðan Uppfært 11 ár síðan 2
Hi Christian
I discovered a subtle issue with the parsing of url that are retrieved through the mendeley api
If there are multiple urls stored with mendeley, bibase is creating a single url by concatenating the urls, rendering them unusable. Example :
http://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0086427%20... for http://www.mendeley.com/c/6115948791/p/14667/garde...

Can I suggest to look for "http://" and either delete all entries after the first or make multiple links? Alternatively, I think mendeley stores them in  the url field of bibtex files separated by a space.

Thanks!

Thanks for reporting. This is fixed now. You may need to update your cache for it to show up (using the &nocache=1 link you got when creating your bibbase page, or by making a small change to your library and then reloading your bibbase page).

Profile issue

Ashton Bradley 9 ár síðan updated by Yehia Abd Alrahman 5 ár síðan 4

I don't know if this is a bug, but the issue is about author name uniqueness (or lack thereof).


There is an issue with obtaining a "token" to link my publications on bibbase with my page. Bibbase has this to say: [http://bibbase.org/network/link]

Linking Your BibBase Page to Your Account

You can "claim" your publications on BibBase by linking your account on bibbase.org to your publications page. To do so, we will provide you with a verification token that you need to add to your bibbase parameters on your web page. This is described in more detail below.

--


However, the issue is that only one name is found matching mine, and it is not mine. So currently all displayed publications served up by bibbase have a link from my name to an entirely unrelated research group in a different field. How do I get bibbase to identify my name?


I think all of my publications are currently attributed to


http://bradleylab.wustl.edu/publications/


I would be grateful if either (a) my profile was deleted so there is no erroneous attribution, or (b) a new profile be added for my name.

Hiding download count

Eunsuk Kang 11 ár síðan updated by Christian Fritz 11 ár síðan 1
Hello,

Is there an option to hide the download counts when using embedded BibBase?

Thank you!

Yes, of course :-)
You can do that with CSS. Just put the following into your style definition.

.bibbase_stats_paper { display: none; }

is bibbase down right now?

Maximilian Held 11 ár síðan updated by Christian Fritz 9 ár síðan 1
Bibbase doesn't seem to allow sign-in with neither Google nor Linkedin -- and it also creates no bibliography. Used to work on the weekend.
