Hi,

The link on my name in each of the references appears as a large grey block (and in the filtering menu too).

http://pedrovale.bio.ed.ac.uk/bibbase

Is there any way to format this so my name doesn't awkwardly stand out?

Thanks, and also jsut to say this is great resource!

In a similar vein to this topic, I'm having issues with the page that links an author's name to their directory.

The website at the moment has one large bib file here from which it produces the main publications. Each directory entry then has its own filtered list based on 'short-author', e.g. this.

Finally there are also project specific papers, filtered based on a dummy bib field 'project', e.g. this.
This all works perfectly, so several thumbs up for the filtering function!

Now, R.M. Ward is in all those links. Ideally BibBase should see that the longest list with her as an author on each publication is her directory. This works fine until you refresh the page on the project page, at which point her author link becomes that project page, not her directory entry. This link change then permeates across the website until you navigate to e.g. her directory entry and then refresh on that page, at which point the link changes back to her directory entry.

The same problem occurs when I am linked both in my directory and in a project page. Here, I have only one publication so I can see why it would get confused. But, I had previously linked my BibBase account to my directory entry, so thought it would be better anchored. Instead, the 'Homepage' link just changes with whichever is the prevailing location for the directory.

Note: you have to refresh the page once you've navigated to it in order for the link location to change.

The author links are a very good idea, and really helps bring together who is working on which projects etc. etc. but the automatic allocation of the author directory seems a little too volatile at the moment!

Hi all,

I am not sure I'm missing something obvious, but I think I have a problem with my embedded page. If I try opening using the full address:

https://bibbase.org/show?bib=http://www.statistica.it/gianluca/Publications/mypubs.bib&theme=simple&authorFirst=1&group0=year

all seems to work OK. But when I point to the address to which I'm redirecting

www.statistica.it/gianluca/Publications

nothing happens --- the page is just blank. It did work until a few days ago. I don't think there's a mistake in one of the new entries in the bib file --- but I may be mistaken?

Any idea of what might be going on?

Thanks!

Gianluca

I've got this syntax for date but can't seem to make it work. I actually want to filter by a constant field with a code correlated to our local classification of collections. http://bibbase.org/show?bib=http%3A%2F%2Fbibbase.org%2Fzotero%2FJANRIV&jsonp=1&nocache=1&filter:date=2014 This syntax gives output sorted by date but including all years.

We have a bib database file with contains items with ampersand & in the item keys however since bibbase switched to the new parser bibbase no longer render the entries correctly.

The following file can be used to illustrate the issue: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/overturetool/overturetool.github.io/4dc3b48401a19f22e819296af3a5451a27d04f27/publications/overtureweb.bib

the entries that fail looks like:

@incollection{Name&13,

  KEY       = "Name13",
  year		={2013},
  ...
}

I added an issue + pull request to the parser on github: https://github.com/chfritz/meteor-bibtex/issues/3

Furthermore. The warnings icon only show at random. Usually entries that fail to parse are listed last like:

undefined (25)

I really like the simple theme. I wonder how the CSS file can be hacked to basically clean up the simple style in the following manner. Currently, you have

TITLE. AUTHOR. LOCATION/YEAR. paper

TITLE. AUTHOR. LOCATION/YEAR. paper

It would be nicer to have

TITLE.

AUTHOR.

LOC.

paper

(2 line break)

TITLE.

....

So it doesn't require a change to the theme per se, but would need a modification to the CSS file, I'd imagine.

Would it be possible to generate a numbered publication list? The numbers are used for the PDF files, which can be accessed by this number. This makes it possible to get insight into a document, even before it is published.

On my bibbase user page (http://bibbase.org/network/user/HM4cx8dr8GBTH8vxX) there is a section on the left-hand side of the page called "Expertise". It's currently empty. How do I populate it? (Perhaps it's supposed to come from the "keywords" fields of my papers?)

For some reason, I find that bibbase_icon_text elements (e.g. the text saying "paper" next to each url field) are not being displayed. Yet if I explicitly load the default.css file (using "...&css=http://bibbase.org/css/styles/default.css&...") then the text is correctly shown. Perhaps the default.css file is not actually being used, or is being overridden somehow?
