Error retrieving bibtex file.

Yvette 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 2

I am trying to generate a BibBase page from a Zotero group, but I get the following error message:

BibBase: Error retrieving bibtex file.
Request was:

https://api.zotero.org/groups/2327738/items?key=XCsZkByXjwNfD2MKCHPFRxOr&format=bibtex&limit=100
{ 'User-Agent': 'bibbase' }

I saw someone else posted this question 2 years ago, but there were no answers. Anyone have an idea of what went wrong and how to fix it now?

bibBase resizes my web page menu bar in a funny way on small screens

rms3145 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 4

I created a web page with responsive design and the w3 templates... and I got the following error with BibBase...  guessing it is caused by javascript but I don't really know....


Here is my problem: If you compare these two pages on small screens:

https://www.math.upenn.edu/~strain/pubs1.html

https://www.math.upenn.edu/~strain/pubs2.html

the page pubs1 which includes BibBase gets a resized menu bar on small screens that bumps in from the side and the whole page is resized in an unindented way.  the page pubs2.html is exactly the same as the first page except that the BibBase is removed and it doesn't do the unintended resizing on small screens.


Any ideas how to remove the un-intended resizing on small screens? 

Thanks!

Add support for bachelor's theses

Till Hofmann 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 4

We would like to display bachelor's and master's theses on our website. Currently, we can display master's theses with @mastersthesis (Example). However, if we use the same entry type for bachelor's thesis, it's also shown as master's thesis, the type field is ignored.

One way to solve this would be to follow how biblatex displays the @thesis type, i.e., use @thesis for all types of theses and distinguish the different types by looking into the type field:

* If the type field is mathesis, display the thesis like @mastersthesis is currently displayed

* Display type bathesis in the same way, but with the string 'Bachelor's Thesis'

* Display type phdthesis just like @phdthesis is currently displayed.

The "Extra" field displayed

Ioan Muntean 6 years ago updated by Christian Fritz 6 years ago 3

I am happy with your work on BibBase. I use zotero and I embed my page in a wordpress, with acceptable results. I was wondering if I can display another field after the date like notes or information.

Javascript embedding breaks page elements

beam andrew 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 2

When I use the javascript method of embedding on my page, many elements break. For instance, I have a foundation orbit element that scrolls pictures, like this:

https://foundation.zurb.com/sites/docs/orbit.html

but when I embed bibbase using javascript they appear as vertically stacked images. When I use the iframe method, this doesn't happen. 

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Problem of sync & of order

Jenny 6 years ago 0

Hi,

as others, I also have a problem of synchronisation with my Zotero bibliography. I tried to celar it all and to add references authors by authors but at some point, it does suppress some refernces. For example, with this bibliography (https://www.zotero.org/groups/2196130/centre_franois_vite__liste_des_ralisations_et_produits_de_la_recherche/items), bibbase does identify only 100 references over 118 (https://bibbase.org/show?bib=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.zotero.org%2Fgroups%2F2196130%2Fitems%3Fkey%3DbJu492Wnsy1CZ1rdQgef6MPf%26format%3Dbibtex%26limit%3D100msg=embed#) (but before I added the papers by Lisa Rougetet, it was ok).

Then, i would like to know if it is possible to order the refernces by name and not by modification date : is it possible ?

Thank you very much for this great solution to publish bibliographies on web pages !

Best regards,

Jenny

Changing font in an embedded page?

Ioan Muntean 6 years ago updated by Christian Fritz 6 years ago 1

I am pretty satisfied to the way in which iframes work now with wordpress, but the font used by wordpress are rather different than the one used by bibbase. Is there any way to change/replace the fontface of the embedded page? Thanks!

article icon

Olivier Cailloux 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 3

When a url is given (in the bibtex source) that ends with “.pdf”, bibbase shows a PDF icon instead of the default link icon. Nice!

But when the link to the PDF does not end with “pdf” (for example, https://arxiv.org/pdf/1801.05644), this does not happen.

I would like to be able to specify the icon from within my bibtex source. For example, url_Article would always display a PDF icon; or a supplementary field would be used for this, something like url_Article_type = "PDF".


Even better, bibbase could detect when the server sends PDF at the given url. But this would be much more difficult to implement, I suppose, and I would be satisfied already with a simpler solution.

How to filter DBLP results to a given year range?

Murilo Marinho 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 3

Hello! Nice work with BibBase.


I have just set up a BibBase page for my laboratory.

http://www.nml.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/en/publication-e.html

For now, I'm very interested in the integration you have with DBLP, since it will be automatically updated and save us a lot of headache.

I'm embedding BibBase to our website using JavaScript and I've been trying to play with the filters (https://bibbase.org/help) to customize it a bit more. 

What I'd like to know is

  1. Can I set up a filter to show only results from 2010 onward?
  2. Can I set up a filter to remove the @proceedings field, or alternatively keep only the @article and @inproceedings fields?

Cheers,

Murilo
